| Summary and Scope | |
| This project aims to a) strengthen UN/CEFACT's traditional trade facilitation agenda by applying a holistic approach to trade documents, based on the coordination of Trade Facilitation and eBusiness layers and to b) enable the development of simple low-cost solutions to support the generation and exchange of standardised paper and/or electronic international trade documents by implementing existing standards and recommendations. Two key aspects of this project are to develop an international trade data model based on CCTS/ISO 15000 Part 5 and revision 2004 of UNTDED/ISO 7372, from which document data models can be derived, providing the ability to move between paper and digital documents at any point in the international trade transaction and maximizing semantic interoperability. These objectives can only be achieved by close co-operation between trade document users and system designers and implementers. |
