Project PurposeThe purpose of the project is to create the business models and business class diagrams for documenting the business scenarios and business transactions involved in the issuing and the exchange of the electronic quality certificate. The process is described by several use cases: The producer/trader send a request for obtaining an e quality certificate. This involves the declaration of the product and production specifications to the issuing authority; The producer/trader retrieves an issued e quality certificate from the issuing authority; The exchange of the e quality certificate between the involved business partners and authorities. The e quality certificate is a unique document that is issued by an authority, and the document states that the product meets certain qualification criteria. The document is signed and unique marked by the issuing authority. The e quality certificate is protected against falsifications. Also the exchange processes of the e quality certificate is providing protection against fraude with the certificate. Project ScopeThe objective of this project is to standardise the business processes, the business transactions and the information entities of request, the issuing and the exchange of the the electronic exchange of the e quality certificate along the supply chain. The project will describe the business process for the electronic exchange of - Data involved in the process of requesting and issuing an electronic quality certificate between the producer / trader and the issuing authority, vice versa, and - the exchange of the e quality certificate along the supply chain. The project will focus on the e quality certificate for agricultural products, both of plant and animal origin. The supply chain consists of all parties involved from farmer – fisherman, including cooperatives and producer organisations, packers and traders, processors up to the retailers, including the service providers and authorities. The data involved in the request of an e quality certification message contains: - information about the product (type, purpose, quantity, quality, identification) , production process, location and party and purpose of the certificate (ie. export to country X) The e quality certificate contains data about the related product and the administrative data of the certificate, (date of issue, inspection, etc; the certificate ID, inspector and an electronic signature of the authority.) The relation between the physical product instance and the assigned e quality certificate for this product instance will be maintained along the lifecycle of the product instance. The certificate is used by the producer / trader to prove the product qualifications in case of export or for other business processes. The certificate is used by the export control authority and by the (international) trade partners. |
