Project Purpose

The International Maritime Organization have published in 1965 the Convention of Facilitation of International Maritime Traffic (FAL). This convention contains standards and recommended practices on formalities, documentary requirements and procedures which should be applied on arrival, stay and departure of ships and ports. Standard forms were developed for these declarations. Over time, UN/EDIFACT messages were developed to correspond to each of these forms and integrated into the IMO FAL Compendium. This Compendium has developed the business processes associated with the flow of information relative to these forms. In recent years, IMO has approved a project to update the FAL Compendium and align it with their Single Window project. To this aim, they have developed an independent data model of the requirements from these forms which will be published in the new compendium. IMO has agreed to add annexes within the new Compendium which will provide mappings from this independent model to international standards including the UN Core Component Library, UN/EDIFACT and the UN/CEFACT Multi-Modal Transport Reference Data Model (MMT-RDM). The current project aims to create the mappings and updated guides to satisfy the request to complete these annexes to the IMO FAL Compendium.

Project Scope

The current project proposes to create an intermediate subset of the UN CCL on which both the International Supply Chain RDM and the Multi-Modal Transport RDM are based.

Project Deliverables

The project deliverables are: a) A High Level BRS (amalgamation of the current, separate high level BRSs for SCRDM and MMT-RDM) b) A Buy Ship Pay Reference Data Model

Exit Criteria

a) A High Level BRS • Internal and external review logs showing how comments have been addressed • Final draft text ready for publication b) A Buy Ship Pay Reference Data Model • Final draft ready for publication

Project Team Membership and Required Functional Expertise

Membership is open to experts with broad knowledge in the area of international supply chain and transport-logistics chains. In addition, Heads of Delegations may invite technical experts from their constituency to participate in the work. Experts are expected to contribute to the work based solely on their expertise and to comply with the UN/CEFACT Code of Conduct and Ethics and the policy on Intellectual Property Rights.

Geographical Focus

The geographical focus of the project is global.
