The status, were approved by german authorities. We have now all due taxes and commercail authorities numbers for all operational activities. 
The first independent action has been realised with the first independent self sustained Meetings
Action is on going by Jost Müller on the invoicing for 2019 and solving the remaining administration isuues for the payments of 2018 fees. A big commend on mr Müller work solving many admin issues. A big thank also for HLL martin Gnass team for their support. 

2- Important Work on BAPLIE, Movins, TPFREP, IFSAI, Web SERVICE, IOT and Blockchain New sub group:

A- Technical Stream Subgroupsacheived a great work within the short inter plenary session (4 months i/o 6 months usually)
21 DMRs were registered on BAPLIE, MOVINS, IFTMBF, IFSAI, TPFREP. Great presentation were made and high value added discussion were enable by the updated meeting format: Subgroups separations, long sessions up to 3 hours, comprehensive user stories including process, best practices. 

B- Business Process stream  including Business best prcatices, certifications (GEFEG), webservices, IoT and Blockchains presented very impressive work at different stage of maturity.

1 – Best Practices, GEFEG FX: GEFEG representative presented the actual work stage on the GEFEG FX set up with Jost Müller from SMDG e.V. The capabilities are up to requirements to enable a best practices and certification platforms for all EDI messages developped from the officials 95 B or 00 B structure to the latest 19A structures. The First files developped or in developments are: BAPLIE, MOVINS, COPRAR, IFTMBF-BC, TPFREP,  IFSAI:

The tools is also from now on the documenation frame work bases. It enables synchronisation of the data structures through different format. For example, the change requested by IFTMBF sub group under the chair of MSC had also application and impact on all IFTXXX EDI standards and DMRs were prepared as such.

The tool will also enable the implementation of the work of the Best Business practices implementation either by enabling a real contract tual recommendation on VSA EDI exchange agreements by a 3rd party, or by enabling to implement new error messages within the check and certification schema.

Modern methodology based on scrum. web services is now in position to publish an dimplement the first web services standrds on schedule. Mme Becha presented the status of the sub groups on IoT as chair of the INCEFACT IoT. With Traxens support, IoT acheived great milestones within the process to follow to build up standard. Blockachain held its first meeting with great updates from CGI, ABN AMRO and Port of Rotterdam. Terminals, carriers and 3Pls were represented.

3- Next meeting will be announced by June for fall 2020 with a sight on Singapore

SMDG e.V. will report on the 21 Dmr and the new MIGs from GEFEG FX. It will also make MAJOR update recommendations for UNCEFACT EDI best practices between 95B, 00b and up to 19A.
Update on GEFEG implementation for EDI certification. Discusssion of modality of certifications with members for memebers and non members

CODELIST and BICJasmin made a focus on the rocmmendation that a UNLOC is not a Terminal code. A Terminal code is UNLOC + SMDG Terminal code.
On going inventory of loc codes with geolocalisation framework. Work with BIC
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 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.
New methodology used by SMDG on carrier codes to align with BIC SCAC code creating a master code. see presentation

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. CtoC, CTV, VTOC, TTOT, CTOT, TOC flow to and process to analyse, best prcatice and error message to inventory and integrate with GEFEG

BlockchainTom organised blockchain management business case demonstration with ABN Amro and Port of Rotterdam.
The dmonstration was quite convincing. We current stagesaw 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 attached to the ledger he generated.
First user stories were overlooked throught different business cases detailed by CGI, ABN amro and port of rotterdam.
The next step is to follow up on the UNCEFACT standardisation schema:

1 / White paper (done)
2/ Business Requirements Specification (BRS) current stage
3/ Requirements Message Specification (RSM)
4/ Standardized message structure based on the MMT Reference Data Model
