The 72th SMDG Meeting was hosted from 09-10-11 October 2018 in Hamburg hosted by Hapag-Lloyd
Executive summary
SMDG meeting #72 represent a milstone in the history of the UN/CEFACT community:
1- By acclamation of all attendees, the board of SMDG e. V. was elected and SMDG e.V. was created taking over previous SMDG scope
The status, and fees were approved by 60 delegates representing 39 stakeholders ( 9 carriers/ shipowners, 12-15 Terminal entities, 6 Institutions, 16-20 It providers) representing more than 50% of the world tonnage and 40% of the world terminal throughput.
13 members qualified as founding members as per german registrar, while the remaining 26 and many other companies awaits the final legal drafts of the status and condition of memberships to be published, then checked by their legal for them to register.
Action is on going by Jost Müller . Target is for November to have the status registered, December for 2019 membership Invoicing, January for 2020
2- Important Work on IFTMBF, IFSAI, Web SERVICE and great introduction to Blockchain New sub group:
A- IFTMBF: Great work presented by MSC on the need for IFTMBF ammendments. The business case was recognised by SMDG Assembly. Correction need to be performed on some of the change request to comply with UN/CEFACT syntaxe, cohesion of the standard. Mian actions were too late for DMR work for UNCEFACT 18B . Nevertheless, SMDG # 73 in NLMSV advance to 2nd week of february to enable Most of DMRs to be reviewed check and approved by SMDG plenary for UN/CEFACT. It needs a minimum of 8 weeks.
B-IFSAI: DMR to transmit cut off times for VGM, reefer, FCL, DG, OOG, connection to Transshipment, pilot time and bollard information for berthing preparatio.
C- Webservice: Brilliant presentation made by Ralf, Peter and Tamme. Delegates feedback positive on the standard expressed and proof of concept for SMDG #73 on the way.
D- Last but not least, Reiner Beekman and Tom Van Dijk gave SMDG e.V. Delegates a great practical introduction to blockchain. How it technicaly works and How it is implemented with a demonstration live.
SMDG Invited CGI and is also inviting Tradelens on SMDG # 73 in NLRTM to further the exchange with SMDG e.V. user groups and enable the corelation making between physical service rendering expressed by EDI and financial transaction followup engineered with Blockchain. 3 sessions of 1,5 hours have been reserved for it in SMDG e.V. #73
3- New Membership pledge by ONE, XPC, Kuhne and Nagel, Eucon, Cyberlogitec, RWG and others
The renewal of mambership of key stakeholders such as CMA CGM, HAPG-LLOYD, justified the extension of SMDG e.V. from its historical pan european base to extend to the world wide network.
All subgroups were updated as well as chairpersons Workgroups
4- Next meeting will be in NLMSV in Futureland in February 2020 to capitalize on SMDG # 72
This is done to move forward with DMRs and MIGs 8 weeks prior next UN/CEFACT 20A as decided and strongly supported by the assembly,
To be away of all other industry conferences and holidays in March and April 2019.
The location is unique in the middle of 3 major world wide terminals at walking distance and direct views over terminal operation during 36 hours.
Futureland.nl where SMDG e.V. real digitalisation can be confronted directly to digital reality and challenge both world at the same time.
Format with multisession to make more pertinant use the 2000s man hours provided by the delegates during the 3 days meettings sessions (proposal) – 5-6 MIG to mature to industrilaisation – 4 codes tables to review- 1200 man-h of sub group work.
New user group open to blockchain
SMDG # 74 is projected in Singapore home of PSA, ONE, APL, PIL, Xpress as well as operational centers for Maersk, Msc, Hapag-Lloyd and many other asian companie. It will be in September 2019 final week to be precised after SMDG # 73 as per statutes.
SMDG# 74 and #75 are proposed CHGVA home of UN/CEFACT, MSC, Kuhne and Nagel, Ceva, and CNSHG – CNYGN home of Cosco and in the region of many corean, japaneese and taiwaneese stakeholders
Other proposed location BEANR home of PSA, DPworld, ICL, or Malta freeport
Agenda
Tuesday 09 October 2018 Opening session and Subgroup meeting including process for each subjects
Wednesday 10 October 2018 Subgroup meeting including process for each subjects
Thursday 11 October 2018 Plenary (incl Blockchain and )
Keynote by our host on the role of Standardization in the Maritime Industry.
Martin Gnass, CIO of Hapag-Lloyd
Martin Gnass gave a remarkable Keynote speach on the need and effort on Standardisation. Containership Industry is a highly competitive market on the commercial side that nevertheless need operational standardisation bodies such as SMDG to enable common Industry process, knowledge, communication/ data transfer framework to minimize cost and maximize efficiency. This on going effort also concerns Code unififcation and promotion. A remarkable example was made on the historical effort made by IATA on Airline voyage number standards that are unique internally to companies and externally avoiding transcotables between the few hundreds of companies systems.
Martin Gnass finally encouraged SMDG Body to keep on moving forward on its structuration and proffesionalisation of its work.
A Milestone has been made in Hamburg that should bring Momemtum to its necessary activity.
The Board of SMDG thanks Mr Gnass for the Venue and organisation. It highlighted the key contribution done by Hapag-Lloyd to SMDG by:
- Mr Schröder and HLL team work on all the formats but more specifically, TPFREP, VERMAS, IFTSAI, IFTMBF
- The legal department for their help with the german Verein status
- Mr Nettekoven for his professional help on the audit, status and admin process as SMDG Firts auditor

| CODELIST and BIC , Jasmin/ Arthur/ Sönke/ Heidi | Jasmin made a focus on the rocmmendation that a UNLOC is not a Terminal code. A Terminal code is UNLOC + SMDG Terminalk code. On Going project for the review of JM4 Handling codes. This work is also needed for the work of Jost on Baplie 3.x and Movins 3.x New Carrier Codes, ONE, XPF, MAC. BIC reminded the allocation of Depot Codes and the necessary update of ISO 6336 for the container type to reflect the accurcy needed in digitalisation age. To this ground, Mr Gnass in his key note made a wish to see the IATA of shipping being born and simplify by standard and practitioners best practices other critical codes such as Voyage numbers. Let´s see what can be done about that as an inventory and proposal for next time from the sub-group members | Jasmin Drönner Arthur Touzot Sonke Witt Jost Müller | DTS4-SMDG-72-20181106-Baplie-Movins-Codes-Muller.pdf DTS5-SMDG-72-20181106-Codea-Droenner.pdf DTS6-SMDG-72-20181106-JM4-Code-List-new-version-Witt.pdf DTS6-SMDG-72-20181106-Liner-Codes-List-Touzot.pdf |

| IFTMBF for DG | Since 2011 the SMDG has taken responsibility for this message. Latest Version 1.3.1 based on D.00B was published in December 2012. In 2018, MSC has started an initiative to enhance the message with missing elements, and to increase the acceptance of the standard MIG. Target is to achieve one common standard MIG that is accepted and used by all carriers and that is published by the SMDG. All major carriers are participating. Goal: No more individual implementation guides needed ! Brilliant MSC proposal presented by Michael P adn Guido reviewed and commented by SMDG sub group and plenary. Further normal correection of UNCEFACT compliance is needed for the different DMR and MIG to comply. Nevertheless the intent of data accuracy, integrety associated to a stremline process matches totally the spirit of SMDG. Comments were made on standard simplification - legacy codes- updates and Review of the MIG format and too many times examples with insufficient instructions given in them to restrict integrator interpratation SMDG #73 advanced to 12-13-14 of february and new schedule with multiple session to enable the sub group to move forward of the MIG | Michael Peeters Michael Schröder Guido Van den Driesshe | DTS10-SMDG-72-20181106-IFTMBF-Intro-Schroeder.pdf DTS11-SMDG-72-20181106-IFTMBF-Business-and-tec-case-Michael-Peeters-Van-den-Driesshe.pdf DTS12-SMDG-72-20181106-IFTMBF-IFTMBC-Rev-5.6-2-Michael-Peeters-Van-den-Driesshe..pdf |

| Maintenance & Repair | New Sub group introduced by Stefano. M&R process and WESTIM- DESTIM present deficiencies expressed. Excellent overview of MSC logistic integration with Medlog presentation of M&R work and process. DESTIM DMR user story is tahat there is NO POSSIBILITY to insert the DAMAGE responsibility of a each DAMAGE event but only to the total amount internally to the NAD but at this moment isn’t used . WESTIM STANDARD NOT STANDARD WESTIM • NO PART NUMBER PAR+PART NUMBER • DAMAGE CATEGORY To be rewied FTX+DAMAGE CATEGORY CODE+DESCRIPTION | Stefano Ottonello | DTS13-SMDG-72-20181106-MR-Ottonello.pdf | |||
| ConRo – RoRo | ConRo Ro-RO is also a new segment concerned by eventual integration of global carriers with niche market under opportunity or market need base. MSC, CMA among others are operating RoRos and or Con-Ros with a much lowewr standardisation of process, IT capabilities of planning and SMDG e.V. EDI. The Epic user storie expressed by Stefano was confirmed as a high point of interest for the carrier and It providers as a market demand. Objectives for meeting #73 to do the inventory of process and stowage challages affecting the EDI chain. | Stefano Ottonello | - | |||
| Vessel profile std Files | The user story developped was the transfer and innaccuracy of vesssel profile from the loading computer standrds into the terminal operating systems. This transfer cannot and is not delivering optimal solution to both parties. A lot of details in the geometry and specefecity of container part cannot be transfered for many causalities. The idea is to provide a standard EDI frame based either on xml or Shdat, that enable tracable, securable exchange of standard readeable multipltform format. Being able to transfer from loadstar to Navis or MACS3 to Cyberlogitec or TSB or fro MACS3- Stowman to N4 A subgroup has been rebuild to do an invoteory of the files, wrong practices , pain point and bring Navis CVS and TSB, holder of the main libraries with their TOS defining term of technical practical means of effeciency on this issue | Arthur Touzot | - | |||
| Web Service | Very active and deep knownlage new group rose in an impresseive session on web sevices and standardisation implementation recommendation.

| SMDG/ UN/Edifact Business Process efficiency CMA CGM | Comment on BP 1-2-4 The essence and sens of SMDG: Julien Vangeon is taking over the initiative lauched in SMDG #66 on business process by Ann-Christin Fröhmcke to take it further under the vigourous demand of ZIM. The objectives is to recommend versions and best process of use and Business It implemenation. The Demand is to stream line and clean the industry of the substandards in use. Vigourous debate on the proposal on 95B - 00B 19A...No good answer. The proposal of work ahead from Julien would be to run the process throught coprar as it is a key optimization factor today in the EDI chain for load list consolidation. The Secretary general made the point that: 1/ a standard is a standard only if it can be checked at any point of time by a standard scale. GEFEG to provide the platform for it 2/ A standard is a standrd only if it is used. The point of SMDG is to enable partners to synchronise their develpment effort with practical solutions. The time of the update and cost is more an issue than the cost as is. It coiuld be done and considered as the new IMO DAGO where major release are done every 1 year with optional / Beta implemetation on the first year- mandatory compatibility on the second... Julien to work with Paul, GEFEG and his subgroup and present a Business implementation package for COPRAR efficiency implemenation.

| BlockChain | Reiner and Tom came to present us and explain us how their blockchain management was working out for the container industry. The dmonstration was quite convincing. We saw an element of disruption as per car manufacturing moving chain were the act of take the data is the marker and not the time, or space you are VS you should. It enable also the clear owner of the event and tracking attched to the ledger he generated. It would be really interesting to build a sub group next meeting in NLMSV were few solution - CGI/ Reiner Beeckman (CMA-RWG-CGI) or Daniel Wilson (MSK-APMT-Tradelens) or other from ABN -AMRO would do. One of the target would be to see in the data movement confirmation process how blockchain ledger could trigger other operational updates mechanism and how one ldger on transshipment made by RWG and reloaded by APMT can be linked back to the mother ledger...plenty of great things to come with CGI, and hopfully TradeLens and ABN Amro. | Reiner Beeckman, CGI | DBP6-SMDG-72-20181106-cgi-at-a-glance-Beeckman.pdf |

Blockchain is ‘a money-burning disaster’
James Baker
Container shipping needs a body like the airlines’ IATA in order to establish standards for digitalisation, says Hapag-Lloyd’s Rolf Habben Jansen
Lack of industry-wide standards means moves to digitalise are fragmented blockchain cropped Blockchain’s sceptics fear its advocates are acting out of self-interest to make themselves costly
intermediaries on platforms they own and may end up ripping off the blockchain’s users.
BLOCKCHAIN is a “disaster” that lacks industry standardisation, and will “burn money and gain nothing”, according to Hapag-Lloyd chief executive Rolf Habben Jansen.
Mr Habben Jansen, speaking at the Global Liner Shipping conference in Hamburg, said there was merit to an industry collaboration on blockchain,
but industry efforts to develop the technology for container shipping were too insular atthe present time.
“Everyone is setting their own standards and agenda,” Mr Habben Jansen said.
While the proposed collaboration between Maersk and IBM could be good for the industry from a technology perspective, there was no industry-wide governance.
“What is the governance for an industry-wide platform?” he said. “It cannot just be one company saying, ‘I have an industry platform, but I control it.
’”Nevertheless, he said there was some merit in an industry-wide collaboration on digitalisation and blockchain.
“Collaboration can help in some areas but regulatory issues make it difficult,” he said. “There is some merit in industryplatforms on blockchain, for example.”
Airline body IATA was a good example of how an industry-wide body could help with standards and make an industrymore efficient.
“That is very much missing in liner shipping,” Mr Habben Jansen said. “We encourage colleagues to do more in that area.”
Consolidation in the sector should also make it easier to collaborate, if the top six or seven carriers could get traction with shippers.
“It would help facilitate and enable global trade and not be anti-competitive,” Mr Habben Jansen said. “Our firm view is that it will happen in a truly collaborative manner if it can get critical mass.”
Mr Habben Jansen was speaking the day after HSBC said it carried out the world’s first trade finance transaction using a single blockchain platform, involving a shipment of soyabeans transported from Argentina to Malaysia.
SMDG body is there to create and maintain those efficient standards associating standardisation, technology, process and effciency for the maritime Industry under ITIGG and UNCEFACT umbrella
