Supply Chain Reference Data Model BRS

This Supply Chain Reference Data Model Business Requirement Specification (SCRDM-BRS), in combination with the UN/CEFACT business process International Supply Chain Reference Model (ISCRM) and the BRS for the Multi-Modal Transport Reference Data Model (MMT RDM-BRS1) provides the framework for any cross-border transport-related business and government domains to specify their own specific information exchange requirements whilst complying with the overall process and data structures.
The UN/CEFACT SCRDM project has developed and published a business standard which can be applied by countries, regions or industries to provide the definitions of contextualised supply chain data exchanges which can be integrated into software solutions for traders, agents, banks, Customs and Other Governmental Authorities etc. The SCRDM business standard is a reference data model based on the UN/CEFACT Core Component Library (CCL). It forms the basis for constructing Business Data Exchange Structure(s), following the UN/CEFACT Core Components Business Document Assembly Technical Specification (CCBDA), a methodology for developing business documents.
This SCRDM BRS and together with the SCRDM Requirement Specification Mapping (SCRDM-RSM) give a high level view of the requirements of the SCRDM by describing the supported business and regulatory processes, the involved business areas, the main parties and the key business information entities. Derivative information exchange specifications can be developed to support the requirements of conventional UN/CEFACT data exchange formats for UN aligned paper documents, UN/EDIFACT or UN/CEFACT XML messages as well as information exchanges to support web based processes.
