Project Purpose

The Multi-Modal Transport Reference Data Model (MMT-RDM) was developed to cover all the needs of transport and logistics data exchange regardless of the mode of transport. The deliverables within the Transport and Logistics domain also aim to propose multi-modal solutions. That notwithstanding, many stakeholders today are still working on modal-specific data exchange and require either data exchange formats for their specific mode of transport or data exchange formats to move from one mode of transport to another.

This project aims therefore to fill this gap and provide modal-specific (or trans-modal) data exchange eBusiness standards.

Project Scope

This project will develop the eBusiness standards (BRS, XML schema and all relevant technical artifacts) for modal specific transport all based and closely aligned to the MMT-RDM.
It will initially work on the requirements for rail, inland waterway, air and maritime. It will also consider the eBusiness standards needs for changes of modes of transport at transshipment hubs (including, but not limited to between maritime and rail; between maritime and road).

Project Deliverables

Deliverable 1: Rail transport BRS and all relevant technical artefacts
Deliverable 2: Inland waterway BRS and all relevant technical artefacts
Deliverable 3: Air transport BRS and all relevant technical artefacts
Deliverable 4: Maritime transport BRS and all relevant technical artefacts
Deliverable 5: Trans modal transport from maritime to other modes of transport BRS and all relevant technical artefacts

Project Team Membership and Required Functional Expertise

The project team is open to experts with broad knowledge and experience in the area of Multi-modal transport; modal specific transport; data modelling. 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.
Required Functional Expertise:  Multi-modal transport; modal specific transport; data modelling
