1. Review conducted on the high-level transport model that lists out the major components of CONSIGNMENT, which was harmonize between the COML and DTTN models.

 

2. This model prepared is process-focus. E.g ‘Consignment’ component is linked with ‘Party’ component.

 

3. Discussed on the purpose and usage of each of the components, and tried to align it to UBL components and terminology, further fine-tuning the model.
1. Suggested ‘Payment Term’ to be changed to ‘Transport Term’.
2. ‘Delivery’ component is the same as ‘Arrival’ component in COML (introduced by Tim). Concluded that ‘Delivery’ could be a better terminology to replace ‘Arrival’ component in COML.
3. ‘Transport Movement’ in DTTN is the same as ‘Shipment Stage’ in UBL.
4. ‘Cargo Line Item’ is actually referring to ‘Goods Item’ component. ‘Cargo Line Item’ can be merged with ‘Goods Item’ component.
5. ‘Container Line Item’ is actually also ‘Transport Equipment’. ‘Container Line Item’ component may be merged with ‘Transport Equipment’.
6. In UBL 1.0 (Procurement Model), ‘Consignment’ component is not available.  It’ll be a new component introduced for the Transport model for UBL2.0.
7. ‘Consignment’ can consist of either ‘Goods Item’ or ‘Transport Equipment’.  ‘Goods Item’ is used for commercial documents such as Certificate of Origin, Bill of Lading, etc.  Document such as Forwarding Invoice would be more suitable to use ‘Transport Equipment’.

 

4. Other Matters:
1. US Department of Transport (DOT) indicated interest to join the UBL-TSC.  They’ll contribute their feedback and comments during the review stage of the Transport Model.  Their inputs will be used for possible enhancement of the Transport model.
