4. JAPAN 2010 33rd APEC Transportation Working Group, Tokyo, Japan, October 10-14 2010 Background; In 2009, the Leaders of APEC welcomed the Supply Chain Connectivity Framework, which has identified eight chokepoints in regional supply chains and suggested actions to address these chokepoints. At the same time, they welcomed the commitment from Transport Ministers to achieve greater seamlessness in our multi-modal transport networks and called for officials to continue cohesive efforts towards improving supply chain connectivity. This project directly responds to their direction.

5. JAPAN 2010 33rd APEC Transportation Working Group, Tokyo, Japan, October 10-14 2010 Background (continued); In 2010, CTI formalized the APEC Supply-Chain Connectivity Framework and developed Action Plans to address each of the 8 chokepoints. This project proposal makes part of the Action Plan for Chokepoint 6 ”Underdeveloped multi-modal transport capabilities; inefficient air, land, and multimodal connectivity”

6. JAPAN 2010 33rd APEC Transportation Working Group, Tokyo, Japan, October 10-14 2010 Objectives; This project seeks to achieve enhancement of supply chain connectivity focusing on ports through using information and communication technology which can automatically and in real time share information on the movement and status of maritime containers between logistics enterprises, ports and shippers under the Supply Chain Connectivity Framework.

7. JAPAN 2010 33rd APEC Transportation Working Group, Tokyo, Japan, October 10-14 2010 Project Proposal; In order to promote supply chain visibility, JAPAN propose for MEG to hold a workshop to advance information sharing regarding methodology to enhance visibility of maritime container transport among APEC economies.

10. Outline of COLINS • COntainer Logistics Information Service(Colins) is: • a web-based information service developed for integrating and sharing container logistics information among terminal operators, cargo owners, forwarders, carriers, etc, • Port Community System in Japan, • now being developed and managed by Ports and Harbors Bureau of MLIT • available at http://www.colins.ne.jp Vessel Schedule Displays vessel schedule information provided by terminal operation systems, port authorities, and the AIS (Automatic Identification System). Traffic View Cam Displays live traffic views from more than 50 traffic cameras at port districts Cargo Availability Displays import cargo availability derived by terminal operation systems Online Bulletin Board Displays announcements from terminals such as operating ours Cargo Tracking Displays container cargo tracking information (Starts a trial operation in 2011)

11. Issues on sharing container logistics information and out come of Colins To solve the issues on container logistics, it is requisite to share information among the companies concerned easily all-time quickly searchable. is the internet service It is difficult to share the information among container logistics related parties The essential information can be shared among related parties by using Colins! Problem (1) Outcome (1) A huge volume of inquiry is interfering with terminal operation Colins ease drastically burdens on terminal operators! Problem (2) Outcome (2) Colins provide environmentally-friendly and economical transport! Troubles at the gate lead the increase of congestion Problem (3) Outcome (3) 11
