  7. Recommendation 14 • Most of the writing before the end of the year. Points of consideration: • Levels of sensitivity / security assurance levels and level recommendation • Technology neutrality • Technical aspects and legal aspects to be considered • Definitions and functions should be as close to those of UNCITRAL as possible • Annex 1 on legally enabling implementations • Establish a template for submission of data – key characteristics to be considered • Important to deduce a common checklist as an introduction to the annex. • Annex 2 on technical implementations enabling electronic data transfer • Use typologies in UNCITRAL “Promoting Confidence…” document to group similar solutions and allow an easier lecture in the recommendation. • Must consider other typologies for examples like the IATA example or GS1 example… • Looking forward, we would appreciate participation of ex draft Rec 37 members. • Next meeting: conference call mid-October; contact lance.thompson@conex.net for more info

  8. Recommendation 36 • A major interest shown measured by participation • Attendees had different background of Single Window • Presentations were given of SW-implementations from national to regional (i.e. APEC) and global concepts (i.e. GNC) • Re-use of existing draft to Rec 36 • Consultation process based on a questions template together with a «glossy» to be circulated • To be supplemented by contributions of several group members to tap into gained experiences • The results of the consultation will be examined by the group during the Forum intersession and the Recommendation will be continuously progressed using e-collaboration facilities

  38. 20th UN/CEFACT FORUM Closing Meeting Methodology & Technology PDA Vienna, Austria – 21 Sept 2012

  39. METHODOLOGY & TECHNOLOGY PDA Key topics for this week • Workshops on: • Trusted Exchange of Business Documents • Core Library Feasibility (proposed technical framework) • Project team meetings: • Business Document Header & Envelope • Specific issues for discussion: • EDIFACT maintenance procedures • Revised technical framework proposal 20th UN/CEFACT FORUM – Vienna, Austria

  40. Workshop on Trusted Exchange of Trade Documents Identifying requirements and best practices for a framework of interoperability that establishes a trusted environment for exchanging trade documents. • Authentication of Trade Documents by Means other than Signature • Lance Thompson (France) • Trusted trans-boundary electronic trade document exchange • Alexander Sazanov (Russia) • Maintaining trust within a 4-corner network model • Kenneth Bengtsson (Denmark) • Long Term Signature profiles for EDI Data and Electronic Documents • Andrea Caccia (Italy) • “# Mail, the certified email address” • Mr Seongmin Lim (Ministry of Knowledge Economy, Korea)) 20th UN/CEFACT FORUM – Vienna, Austria

  42. Revised Technical Framework • Why are we doing this? • UN/CEFACT is in the business of making recommendations and standards • We need business justifications not technical ones • Market driven • Support from stakeholder communities 20th UN/CEFACT FORUM – Vienna, Austria

  43. The current market • Surveys, analysis and experience suggests: • Many established communities not using UN/CEFACT standards consistently • Situation is too fragmented to change • Then and now… • UN/EDIFACT = single SDO (UN/CEFACT) • XML = many SDOs (W3C, OASIS, ISO, IEC, GS1) • UN/CEFACT is not the sole arbiter of XML standards for eBusiness • No ‘one’ canonical standard will work 43

  44. What Standard(s) Can We Achieve? • One Standard to Rule them All • Centralized • Global agreement on everything • Is my requirement everyone’s requirement? Or • Islands of standardization • Foundational semantics • Satisfying different communities of use • Using specific EDI or XML formats • Transform between different formats • Needs coordination

  45. The Options Before Us • One Standard • Who decides? • What do they decide? • When do they decide? • Fragmented Standards • Who wins? • Coordinated Standards • Common semantics • Federated approach

  46. The opportunity for UN/CEFACT • Someone needs to facilitate the interoperability between these communities. • UN/CEFACT can have that role • Standardize what can be agreed, to improve interoperability • ‘core’ processes, structures, components and data types (including code lists). • Allow communities to re-use these in their environments. 46

  47. The role for UN/CEFACT • A forum for coordinating a framework for interoperability for trade facilitation and eBusiness • Ensure everything is done, but … • Not to do everything • Facilitators not owners • Support disparate community implementations • Build bridges not walls How do we do this? 47

  48. Restructure what we have • Agree on what the ‘end game’ should be: • What an effective framework for UN/CEFACT deliverables would look like. • Plan how to reach the ‘end game’ • Who does what • Stop doing things that don’t fit this plan • Manage the completion of these projects • Get the right resources • Manage expectations • Communicate value
