UN/CEFACT delivered the e-Certificate several years ago. = Many countries have implemented this and are successfully exchanging E-cert= ificates. However, the implementation of the G to G exchange mechanism is c= omplicated due to a lack of harmonization and standardization which is cost= ly and time consuming.
In 2018 IPPC introduced a tailor-made e-Cert platform called e-Phyto hub. T=
wo operational instruments have been implemented; a hub and a generic web-b=
ased system. The E-Phyto hub offers a standardized method for exchanging th=
ese certificates. The situation to date is that both direct (country to cou=
ntry, outside the Hub) and indirect interactions (via the Hub) exist.
The purpose of this project is to develop an implementati= on guide that describes and gives guidance to implementation which is on th= e one hand hub compliant and on the other hand still facilitates direct com= munications which is less costly. The aim is to facilitate a standardized i= mplementation in countries which wish to implement e-Certification.
The project team is expected to produce the e-Cert implem= entation guide which should be able to be used by governments implementing = the UN/CEFACT e-Cert standard. The project shall develop a solution which i= s compatible with both the e-Phyto hub as well as country to country direct= exchange outside the ePhyto hub. It will -next to exchange of Phyto certif= icates- be helpful for other certificates which are likely to have electron= ic equivalents in the near future next to existing paper certificates (Food= (Codex Alimentarius) and Live Animals (OIE)). The implementation guide doe= s not warrant a change in the existing UN/CEFACT E-cert technical artifacts= .
Based on the implementations in use ,the implementation guide shall be base=
d on Webservices Description Language (WSDL), a free, open standard.
