Agenda • Why (the business motivations) • Who (the ecosystem) • What (the three iCargo functions)

2

The iCargo Vision •

By 2020, efficient, low-carbon end-to-end transport and logistics services will be planned, executed and completed cooperatively in a global freight business ecosystem, based on fully interoperable cargo, vehicle, infrastructure and freight management systems, supporting optimal resources usage and real-time alignment of intermodal plans with on-going operations.

3

The iCargo approach • Achieve the iCargo vision through an open freight management ecosystem.

• A business ecosystem is an “intentional community of economic actors” having in common protocols, interfaces and an overall business goal. • In the case of iCargo this is the provision of door-to-door low-carbon logistic services, i.e., services that: – cover an entire supply chain or a significant portion of it, – produce less CO2 than alternatives, – make use of the iCargo ecosystem to combine services through different transport modes and providers. 4

The iCargo ecosystem Door-to-door service Roles and resources assigned on demand

Ecosystem -Inclusive -Decentralized -Based on shared rules

Virtual Resources Network -Automated resource discovery

Connected resources -Selected on the basis of the Virtual Resources Network Options -Integrated view based on common semantics -Support distributed monitoring and planning
