White Paper on Integrated Track and Trace for Multi-Modal Transportation

Submitted by the UN/CEFACT Bureau
This white paper provides a high-level overview as the foundation for developing the business requirements specifications (BRS) document for the project. The BRS will then serve as the guide for the creation of the data models and further standards necessary for supporting digitized track and trace for any single or multimodal transportation scenario. This paper attempts to bridge gaps that exist in the identification schemes used to identify consignment movements and commercial systems.
This document is submitted to the twenty-seventh session by the Bureau for noting.
