1	FMG Summary Report of CEFACT TB2 Project Proposal Non-refutable eAgreement Negotiation Process Aerospace Industry Association eAgreements Group September 27, 2005
2	Situation AIA created Global Trading Partner Agreement (GTPA) and Global Electronic Collaboration Agreement (GECA) Paper Docs Need for web-based, 'clickable‘, multi-party document acceptance global wide recognition, legal acceptance and validation U.S. court case identified need for standards-based process Court ruled clicking does not communicate assent Offeror must clearly identify that clicking signifies assent U.S. court ruling must be considered when executing web-based contracts, acknowledgements, signatures and business transaction buy-offs Procedures accommodating clickable approach Needed now!
3	Target Non-refutable electronic document form - Development of a global standard specification for a legally-binding, electronic agreement document produced in a hosted environment. Digital signature or initialization mechanism – to be applied to agreement clauses for final document negotiation process. A standard methodology specification - to cover the process of producing legally binding, non-refutable, electronic agreement documents via a collaborative, web based process. A standard mechanism for authenticating and validating the digital signatories A standard authority for authentication of digital signatories
4	Proposal to FMG Dimension I – Produce model web-based eTemplate TBG2: (Deliverables) Use Case Data Model Template Dimension II – Produce development instructions TMG – UMM : (Deliverables) Instructions to create eAgreement from template Iterative negotiation instructions Final sign-off instructions Any associated syntax coverage discovered in Phase I and II ATG - (explore for possible involvement) Dimension III – Legal validation Legal Group : (Deliverable) Validate deliverables of Dimension I and II as legally sound Dimension IV - Review UN/ECE Recommendation No 26 TBG15 (Deliverable) New or revised Recommendation for Commercial Use of Interchange Agreements for Electronic Data Interchange.
5	Back Up Slides – TBG Proposal
6	Next Steps Request TBG2 consensus to move proposal forward as a formal project Request FMG recommendation for parallel UN/CEFACT work group coverage such as TMG, UMM, ATG, UBAC, etc. as required Obtain commitments Identify project resources Team Leads – John Bezant, BAE Systems (UK) Editor – Tom Warner, Boeing Team Subject Matter Experts - Darcy Smith (Boeing) Frank Maxfield (Lockheed Martin) Andy Zajaczkowski (Raytheon) Establish time tables and work statements (TBD)
7	Proposal CEFACT Project Proposal Example Model Global Trading Partner Agreement (not a work development item) Includes an introductory preamble prescribing proper use of the Global TPA Includes draft work flow of a proposed electronic negotiation and signature process that would be required for a typical electronic agreement such as the example GTPA AIA eAgreement Requirement Timeline (Slide 9)
8	eAgreement Process Work Flow (draft)
9	AIA Requirement Timeline 4Q 2005 – Define realistic plan for cooperative AIA and UN/CEFACT standards team development of deliverables Validate planned deliverables and schedule estimates 1Q 2006 – Develop non-refutable, electronic agreement document form (as basis for all work) 2Q 2006 – Define the legal specification for employing digital signatory authentication, individual identification, and authority validation. 3Q 2006 – Investigate and employ a standard recommended solution recognizing the legal specification for applying digital signatures to documents and for authenticating and validating the signatories and the signatory authority 4Q 2006 – Develop standard technical methodology to support web based negotiation process
10	AIA Global TPA – Example of Need AIA GTPA is published and available in paper form for Trading Partner used on AIA EXOSTAR and SBAC websites. But, for Supply Chain use (multiple Supplier sign-up), an electronic version and process is beneficial. No standard legal process appears to be in general use Initial UN/CEFACT response from the Chair and Co-Chair of FMG was that this work is definitely timely, beneficial and should be considered for official development into a global standard Gunther Stuhec, TMG chair, indicated that this work proposal is a natural fit within UN/CEFACT business process methodology.” He suggested we coordinate our proposal with Michael Dill, TBG2 chair. He also suggested parallel submission to TMG, UMM and UBAC groups.
