1 Digital Ports past, present & future at International Multidisciplinary Conference on Sea, Traffic and Logistics 2017 in Opatija Ranko Smokvina senior ICT consultant infoexpert, Rijeka, Croatia

2 Digital port idea is not so new Uvod u UN/EDIFACT, Jadroagent Rijeka, 1988 (translation) Smokvina - EDIFACT standard in communication between seaport and business surroundings, Bled, 1991 Čišić, Smokvina EDIFACT message mapping to and from relational database, with examples from shipping industry, Bled, 1993 Zec, Čišić, Perić Facing up the challenges of port operations in digital world, Pomorski zbornik 39, 2001 and many, many more But: Still, digital ports in the world (and particularly in the Adriatic area) are far from being fully digitized Why??? 2

3 Advanced ports show the way Big and small ports are equally preparing their digital scenario according to their digital agendas Two world class examples: Port of Singapore Rotterdam, Holland Other ports are at different levels of digitalization 3

4 Singapore introduces next generation Main goals: Prepare the sector for future digital transformation Authority developing a single portal access for submitting documents for port access called the Maritime Single Window One-stop integrated, digital platform to connect shippers, shipping lines, the port, government agencies and logistics players digital platforms 4

5 Singapore & Rotterdam ports For both ports the digital transformation of the shipping industry is playing a key role Search of competitive differentiators Rotterdam is digitising multimodal logistics network to improve planning, visibility and efficiency for carriers, cargo owners and service providers through the port 5

6 EU Core & Comprehensive Ports statistics Total EU seaports: Core = 103 Comprehensive = 222 Total = 325 in the Adriatic area: Core = 7 Comprehensive = 10 Total = 17 source: European Commision, List of Sea Ports in the Core and Comprehensive Networks,

7 What Digital Theory Includes Port Community administrative & business integration players: Government: Port Authorities, Customs, Port captain, Phito-Sanitary Authorities, Health Authorities Business: Shippers, Stevedores, Railways, Truckers, Logistic organizations, Agencies, Forwarders, Controlling and Inspection organizations, Ship suppliers, Tug & Mooring companies 7

8 Digital Port Domains Safety (First) Customs Border Control (Anti) Pollution Health Statistics Standards Regulation, Co-ordination & Enforcement World, EU, National & Regional Administration Port Authority Administrative Procedures & Processes Terminal Operators Business Procedures & Processes 8

9 Port Operator ICT classic setup ++ ERP Enterprise Resource Planning CRM Customer Relationship Management HR Human Relations ebusiness (einvoice, eprocurement, epaymanets ) PCS Port Community Systen active membership exchange of business data with other stakeholders (logistics) + Bonus automation of all relevant processes ++ Bonus use of mobile revolution to speedup the whole digitization process 9

10 EU emaritime digitalization at institutional Member State level Based on EU 2010/65/EU Reporting Formalities Directive (RFD) from 2010 on reporting formalities for ships arriving in and/or departing from ports of the Member States and ports of the Member States (repealing Directive 2002/6/EC) National Single Window (NSW) system is active in Croatia as: CIMIS = Croatia Integrated Maritime Information System run by Ministry of Maritime Affairs, Transport and Infrastructure Stil not integrated with PCS Port Community System(s) 10

11 EU NSW Guidelines in 2015 EC Directorate for Mobility and Transport has launched National Single Window Guidelines Goal is harmonized understanding and implementation of NSW Based on many EU, + UN/CEFACT, IMO documents and ISO Electronic port clearance (EPC) standard Brings many benefits for authorities and shipping industry Facilitates exchange of information between MS Legacy systems will have to be readjusted to the new NSW Guidelines with costs! Some obstacles to implementation are also envisaged in 2017 detailed technical EU Data Mapping Report was published 11

12 VTMIS + RFD from 2002 VTMIS Directive (2002/59/EC) is active study by PwC and Panteia for European Commission: Ex-post evaluation of RFD and VTMIS Stakeholders consulted: Shipping Companies (and Ship Masters) Shipping Agents National Competent Authorities Other Authorities Result found: Croatia is the only country that currently somehow allows the reporting once at national level Missing: connection to Port Community Systems (PCS) Challenge: no standardization at EU level! 12

13 Ports are Highly Regulated but are advancing slowly Regulation present at global (IMO) and EU scale SafeSeaNet (SSN) operated by EMSA (European Maritime Safety Agency) in Lisabon, Portugal National Agencies (ministries) are not fully in line with EU regulation but fully compliant with IMO regulation! More EU Projects: EU Blue Belt (emanifest) project (work in progress) trying to solve inconsistency in customs regulation reducing short-sea traffic between EU ports AnNa - pilot project for maritime single window Advanced National Network for Administration 13

14 Results of RFD Study 40 EU Ports participated (2 from Croatia) Achievements (% of respondents): Simplification 10% Digitalization 32% Rationalization 27% Single entry point 18% Reporting only-once 28% Removing redundancy 80% National tech.standards 53% General assessment by the RFD Study: RFD did not reach intended goals (yet!) 14
