Presentation at the TIMOR-LESTE national workshop on cross-border trade facilitation and emerging technologies (3 May 2023), explaining how two EU priorities (the eFTI regulation and an EU FEDeRATED basic data sharing architecture) will integrate electronic consignment notes into end-to-end digital supply chains where data can be accessed at the source.
Presentation at the GS1 BeLux Innovation Café (December 2022)
This short 3-minute video recording (May 2022) illustrates a simple potential eFTI process whereby an authority “pulls” a structured eFTI dataset of information from the ERP/TMS system of a logistics service provider. The multimodal information model and API of the EU-Gate Living Lab #17 enables transport and shipment information to be presented in multiple formats (EU Member State specific, as presented by the driver, JSON-LD, XML and in the next version (2022Q4) as a RDF/semantic endpoint).
The EU-Gate logical data model aims to provide interoperability between global (UN/CEFACT, WCO, IATA OneRecord, GS1) and EU Semantics (eFTI common dataset, FEDeRATED Ontology)
Presentation of the 12th International Seminar on Trade and Transport Facilitation with common theme "Trade Facilitation and Digital Transformation of Multimodal Transport and Trade in a time of crisis". (7 July 2022)
The article, published on LinkedIn explains the importance of the EU 2020/1056 eFTI regulation whereby authorities are mandated by 21 August 2025 to be able to receive transport information in an electronic format.
Presentation (including a live demonstration) at the UNCEFACT Forum (5 October 2021) of the OneAPP for Authorities application and API that is part of the FEDeRATED e-CMR/eFTI Living Lab
The "Digital Twins in a FEDeRATED Architecture" and "WEB API's for the International Supply Chain" are part of the UNCEFACT webinar “Technology Developments: Potential for Impacting Cross-Border Trade”, that took place on Wednesday 11 November 2020 as an online event hosted by the 35th UN/CEFACT Forum
Standards adoption for intermodal data communications between various modes of transport and interoperability through the cooperation of the standards organisations will help facilitate and enhance future international trade. A new article on " Intermodal Supply Chain Facilitation through Adoption and Implementation of International Communications Standards” by @Hanane Becha, @Todd Frazier, @Rudy Hemeleers, @Steen Erik Larsen, @Bertrand Minary, @Henk Mulder, @André Simha, and @Jaco Voorspuij provides some thoughts into this
The 5-year EU funded FEDeRATED consortium has publised the first version of its Master Plan. 51Biz-PPMB is the only Luxembourg based company participating as a partner and beneficiary of the EU funded CEF consortium that has to goal to implement and test the EU Federated architecture that has is being defined by the Digital Transport and Logistics Forum (DTLF)
