Intermodal Customer System --> Freight Distribution and Logistics Center:
available loads

Definitions

available loads (Information Flow): Request from a shipper (consignor) for services to handle shipping of a container or freight load. Aggregated, this information represents the available loads to be shipped from intermodal customer locations in the region.

Intermodal Customer System (Source Physical Object): The 'Intermodal Customer System' represents organizations that engage in the shipment of freight, either originator (consigner or shipper) or recipient of the cargo shipment. They enable the movement of goods on routes that require the use of other modes of transportation such as heavy rail, air, sea, etc. The Intermodal Customer System includes those personnel responsible for the movement of freight across international borders.

Freight Distribution and Logistics Center (Destination Physical Object): The 'Freight Distribution and Logistics Center' provides intermodal logistics support and support for the efficient distribution of freight across transport systems and modes. This can include consolidation arrangements, warehousing, and consignor-to-consignee intermodal shipping arrangements. These capabilities may be provided as part of intermodal fleet management activities or can be provided by an independent logistics specialist.

Communication Solutions

Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

(None-Data) - OASIS MQTT

Solution Description

This solution is used within Australia, Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with (None-Data) with those for OASIS MQTT. The (None-Data) standards include an unspecified set of standards at the upper layers. The OASIS MQTT standards include lower-layer standards that support data distribution of specific types of data.

Interoperability Description
Regional Interoperability throughout the geopolitical region is highly desirable, but if implemented differently in different transportation management jurisdictions, significant benefits will still accrue in each jurisdiction. Regardless, this Information Flow Triple should be implemented consistently within a transportation jurisdiction (i.e., the scope of a regional architecture).

Basis Contains company information including load delivery specifics. While possibly not competitive, could be considered 'need-to-know', as anyone not providing transport services could have minimal legitimate use for this information. Possible abuses could leverage arrival and delivery information or transport operator locations. CVO decisions including job acceptance, routing and work planning are impacted by the quality of this data, so incorrect, unavailable or fraudulent data could have a significant financial impact.
