Report on standardized digitalization in Multimodal transport UA
This report covers the results of a pilot project in the implementation of: (a) the recommendations of the 2019 and 2020 Odessa trade facilitation seminars of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) to support the development of digital multimodal transport corridors to increase the harmonization and standardization of data exchange in international transport, trade and logistics to encourage electronic data exchange and thereby to reduce person-to-person contacts during the COVID-19 crisis and in the post-pandemic recovery, using relevant standards of the United Nations Centre for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT), a subsidiary body of the UNECE.
The aim is to foster the harmonization of electronic data sharing using global (UN/CEFACT) standards for transport, trade and logistics, and to prepare standards for e-documents based on the UN/CEFACT semantic standards and reference data models. The focus will be on the development of electronic document equivalents for the documents mentioned above, using UN/CEFACT tools in the countries developing a digital multimodal transport corridor.

Guide for National Trade Facilitation Bodies on How to Use UN/CEFACT Trade Facilitation Standards and Tools
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted supply chains and global trade flows and affected delivery of public services. As part of the emergency response, governments worldwide adopted measures to fast-track imports of essential goods and medical supplies, and to provide public services while maintaining contact restrictions and changes in staff assignments. They also adopted provisional measures to digitalize information exchange or just receive scanned or photographed copies of documents, to verify content through electronic means and to reduce the frequency of physical inspections of goods and means of transport.
Практическое руководство для Национальных органов по упрощению процедур торговли: как использовать стандарты и инструменты СЕФАКТ ООН
Пандемия коронавирусного заболевания COVID-19 существенно нарушила цепи поставок и дестабилизировала глобальные торговые потоки, а также оказала воздействие на предоставление государственных услуг. В качестве мер экстренного реагирования на чрезвычайные ситуации, правительствами стран были введены упрощенные процедуры как для импорта товаров первой необходимости и предметов медицинского назначения, так и для предоставления государственных услуг, при одновременном сохранении ограничений на контакты между людьми и принятии изменений в процедурах назначения сотрудников. Административные органы по всему миру также ввели временные меры по цифровизации информационного обмена, либо же в целях обеспечения возможности принятия отсканированных или сфотографированных копий документов, проведения проверок соответствия информации электронным образом, а также для снижения частоты проведения физических инспекций грузов и транспортных средств.
International Forwarding and Transport Standard Package
The current practice of the exchange of electronic messages for transport and logistics using UN/EDIFACT has provided a trusted and stable environment to communicate efficiently between actors in the supply chain since its introduction in 1990. The ongoing digitalization of supply chains, introduction of IoT devices such as smart containers, eCMR, and adoption of data pipeline principles in the transport and logistics domain processes raises new data requirements and migration path between these UN/EDIFACT messages and the Multi Modal Transport Reference Data Model (MMT RDM) is a key move to support future requirements.
The International Forwarding and Transport package contains the following elements:
Booking Standard Package
Bookings form an integral part of the ‘Buy-Ship-Pay’ model where the transportation of goods is not only using available capacity offered by a Transport Service Provider but binds the supply chain together with a Transport Plan. This provides multiple interested parties with the planned movements of a consignment journey from which the delivery of service can be executed and measured.
The Booking Standard Package package contains the following elements:
