One link in a global supply chain
• TIR is one link in a global supply chain
• The information needs to be interoperable with Transport
information, Commercial information, Other Regulatory
information…
• The international supply chain is very complex (multiple
actors and multiple relations in data exchanges)
• A holistic view and approach are needed
• Information will not be purely goods-related or purely
transport or purely regulatory…
• There are clear links between the information in each part
of the global supply chain
