RASFF

Project Details

Project Purpose

In 2012-2013, UN/CEFACT developed the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF). The resulting data requirements were published in the Core Component Library and the UN/CEFACT RASFF schema. However, the BRS did not seem to receive its final approval and was therefore never officially published. The standard therefore exists and is being used; however, it is not correctly published on the website because it is missing its official, finalized BRS.

The project will therefore enquire with the 2013 team for any existing material and put together a BRS which will correspond with the existing deliverable on the website.

Project Scope

Develop the BRS documenting the business requirements supporting the existing schema and Core Component Library objects concerning the RASFF. 

This project does not plan to update the library entries or change the structure of the existing schema for RASFF. This may be the subject of a future project.
