Our approach leverages empirical datasets, evolving technological concepts, and collaborative engagement across industry and research bodies.
Comprehensive tracking and management of supply-chain processes from origin to destination, ensuring transparency and compliance at every stage.
Implementation of emerging UNTP standards for Digital Product Passports (DPP), enabling seamless interoperability and controlled data exchange.
Advanced AI algorithms processing complex trade data, regulations, and compliance requirements to automate decision-making and reduce manual overhead.
Our AI-based platform for Global Trade is integrated with GOV, European Commission and WCO systems and targeted for market launch in Q4 2025. The platform intelligently digitizes WTO's Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) including trade-related investment measures, anti-dumping measures, and customs valuation methods.
From political roots through policy implementation to customs adherence
6-month cycle analysis of datasets impacting product classification
Bilateral and multilateral trade deal analysis with legal-centric datasets
Real market value through empirical datasets and technological innovation across multiple jurisdictions.
This task will provide an overview of the technical background of the project, with a focus on open-source building blocks that can be used to build an interoperable framework. We shall focus on all necessary technical aspects including the use of the internet-of-things (IoT), AI, Cloud-to-Edge computing technologies, Digital Twins, and Distributed Ledger Technologies. Focus would be given on various non-functional aspects, including GDPR-compliance and international standards. This work shall result in a comprehensive inventory of technologies that address the technical requirements of the project.
The goal of this task is to define guidelines and requirements for the TCA platform. We will cover both end-users and technical requirements. In the initial phase using structured and unstructured interviews the end-user requirements will be gathered. Based on the findings we will organise co-creation workshops to discuss and refine requirements with the end-users. Using scenarios and use cases we will define the interactions between the users and the TCA. Following the elicitation initial phase, the requirements will be analyzed for feasibility, completeness, and consistency. During this phase any conflicts between the stakeholders will be resolved prioritising system requirements and identifying technical constraints.
Refining and bringing the national Use Cases together, interweaving them so that it is a cohesive whole. This will mean reflecting the Dutch and UK Use Cases for Trade Compliance (Imports & Exports) together with digitized documents like electronic bills of landing (e.g. eCMR) and in to the secure tracking of consignments with different data inputs/sources
With the project's end user partners in the driver's seat and based on the refined use cases, this task is responsible for consolidating the KPIs of the envisaged TCA-OpenLog solution against which it will be later on assessed. These KPIs will likely also be associated with individual use cases of the project. Additionally, while again incorporating elements of trust, such as reliability, transparency, and ethical considerations, it will be crucial in defining these KPIs to ensure the solution not only meets technical requirements but also fosters a trusted ecosystem and the creation of business value for all stakeholders. Technology partners will be asked to advise the end user partners on the technology options and likelihood to achieve those KPIs, emphasizing the importance of trust-building features in the selection process.
