4FREIGHTWISE starting points
- Timely and correct information is a vital part of
any logistic solution - Internal IT management systems are developing
rapidly - Advanced Information exchange between
organisations is still complicated - Standardised solutions are missing
- Technology is not the major issue
- Organisational and commercial issues is more of a
problem - Advancing inter-organisational communication
requires some basic rules of the game -
interaction infrastructure to support the
physical infrastructure. - Providers of such interaction infrastructure
are/could be - Standardisation bodies
- European and national initiatives
- FREIGHTWISE supports Commission initiatives in
cooperation with the industry
5FREIGHTWISE supports supply chain management
- SCM is the integration of key business processes
from end user through original suppliers, that
provides products, services and information that
add value for the customer and other stakeholders
(Global Supply Chain Forum) - SCM consists of the following elements
- The stakeholder structure - The member firms and
their relationships - The business processes - the value adding
activities - The management components
- physical and technical
- managerial and behavioural
6A need for transport chain management
7FREIGHTWISE Framework seeks to integrate three
domains
8Examples of EU policy initiatives
- Safe Sea Net and mandatory ship reporting system
(FRS) according to Directive 2002/59/EG - Telematic Applications for Railfreight as part of
Directive 2001/16/EC on the interoperability of
the trans-European rail system. - A proposal for Harmonised River Traffic
Information Services in Directive COM 2005/44/EC - An ongoing initiative to develop a harmonised
system for electronic fee collection for road use
till 2009 - MARNIS for one stop shop vessel reporting
- FREIGHTWISE to provide input for a Directive (?)
on intermodal transport information exchange
9RIS as an example of a European initiative
- Proposal for a Directive (COM 2005/44/EC) on
harmonised River Traffic Information Services
(RIS) on inland waterways in the Community - RIS defines
- Guidelines for architecture and organisation
- Electronic ship reporting
- Notices to skippers
- Tracking Tracing systems
- Inland ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and
Information Systems)
10- Telematic Applications for Railfreight defines
- business models,
- process descriptions and
- data exchanged during these processes
- Relating to
- Real-time monitoring of freight and trains,
- Marshalling and train composition.
- Path reservation.
- Management of connections with other modes of
transport - Production of accompanying electronic documents.

12Project management structure
13Work-package leaders (horizontal WP)
14Business cases
15Thematic Expert Groups (TEG)
- Safety Security
- Aim. This TEG identifies common issues related to
transport and information safety. It also
supports the cases with respect to security
threats that are pertinent to intermodal
transport. - Customs and e-government
- Aim. Integration of state of the art technologies
and procedures to simplify administrative
processes - Traffic information
- Aim. Integration of transport and traffic
information, to improve transport performance and
information about deviations. - Standardisation
- Aim. Internally Support the application of
standards in the project externally Identify
necessary additional standardisation and provide
input for such activities and incorporate
industry needs and standardisation decision
makers requirements.

19Main FREIGHTWISE outputs
- A useful starting point for interoperable
software development in the transport logistics
sector - Hands on examples, i.e. actual systems that are
instances of the FREIGHTWISE reference
architecture and demonstrate particular business
oriented implementations
- A concept for handling a virtual transport
network, i.e. defining and managing chains or
chain instances composed from the VTN - A VTN node format with all necessary and
sufficient parameters for advertising transport
services (e.g., company-internal, on a trusted
partners level, or open)
- A set of issues relevant to stakeholder
co-operation and transport service integration
(ETA monitoring, information transparency,
confidentiality, security, etc) - An inventory of information objects used by
stakeholders (tools, documents, methods etc)
expressing requirements per issue (e.g. a
contract expressing liabilities, or a track
trace function expressing decision making
parameters needed)
20Expected results
Support to EU policy on promoting co-modality
