TRADELENS OVERVIEW MARTIN HAGELSTROM BLOCKCHAIN LEADER IBM LATIN AMERICA @MHAGELSTROM
24-Aug-18 2 IBM AND MAERSK HAVE LAUNCHED TRADELENS An open and neutral supply chain platform poised to transform the industry TradeLens is built for the industry and offers benefits to trade participants from across the supply chain ecosystem Responding to industry feedback, IBM and Maersk have revised the approach and are proceeding under a Collaboration Agreement, which offers greater flexibility and responsiveness to industry feedback An Industry Advisory Board will help to shape the platform and drive standards Maersk Line and Hamburg-Sud are participants under the same terms as other network members Core platform components are available today under an Early Adopter program; full release remains on target for Q4 2018
24-Aug-18 3 More than $16 trillion in goods are shipped across international borders each year 80% of the goods consumers use daily are carried by the ocean shipping industry By reducing barriers within the international supply chain, global trade could increase by nearly 15%, boosting economies and creating jobs 1 1) The World Economic Forum: Enabling Trade Valuing Growth Opportunities 2013
24-Aug-18 4 GLOBAL TRADE IS HIGHLY INEFFICIENT AND BURDENED BY PAPER-BASED PROCESSES Inland Transportation Data trapped in organizational silos Shippers / Beneficial Cargo Owners Disparate perspectives on transaction state Ocean Carriers Custom Systems Supply Chain Visibility Systems Manual and time-consuming processes Ports and Terminals Supply Chain / Transportation Management Systems Clearance processes subject to fraud Port Community Systems; Terminal Operating Systems Freight Forwarders Authorities Trade Associations Custom Brokers
24-Aug-18 5 A FEW EXAMPLES FROM OUR PILOT ILLUSTRATE THESE INEFFICIENCIES A single shipment of avocados from Mombasa to Rotterdam involves 30 actors, 100+ people, and 200 information exchanges Pilot shipments from Central Europe to the U.S. resulted in containers being delayed for 4 weeks due to lack of transparency and delayed information exchange A customer support agent for a freight forwarder may have to make up to five calls to different parties to answer a simple location question KEY TAKEAWAYS Data are siloed Inconsistent information across organizational boundaries and blind spots throughout the supply chain hinder the efficient flow of goods Complex, cumbersome, and costly peer-to-peer messaging Manual, time-consuming, paper-based processes Risk assessments often lack sufficient information; clearance processes subject to fraud Missing customs documents prevented gate-in at time of arrival Pre-announcement to Terminal was not updated in time. Containers arrived on different mode, causing complications for receipt Late filing due to miscommunication between exporter and Customs over documentary requirements. Containers missed the vessel due to late gate-in, visibility issues and communications delays; as a result the containers were rolled To track a ship or container for the BCO, the Customer Support Agent from the Freight Forwarder may have to call the: Port Carrier Trucking operator Rail operator This scenario occurs throughout the supply chain Business processes are manual and intensive Supply chain partners spend too much time chasing information Limited visibility over transport plan issues meant inland providers were unable to carry cargo on the expected date
24-Aug-18 6 THE TRADELENS PLATFORM Digitizing the global supply chain Inland Transportation Connects the ecosystem Brings together all parties in the supply chain - including traders, freight forwarders, inland transportation, ports and terminals, ocean carriers, customs and other government authorities, and others - onto a Blockchainbased platform with a secure permission and identity framework Drives true information sharing Provides for the seamless, secure sharing of real-time, actionable supply chain information across all parties to a trade - encompassing shipping milestones, cargo details, trade documents, the structured data embedded in trade documents, customs filings, sensor readings, and more Fosters collaboration and trust Enables the digitization and automation of the cross-organization business processes integral to global trade, including import and export clearance, with Blockchain ensuring secure, auditable, and non-repudiable transactions Spurs innovation Lays the foundation for ongoing improvement and innovation through an open, non-proprietary API, the use of standards and promotion of interoperability, and the launch of an Applications Marketplace that parties can use to build and deploy TradeLens-powered applications for themselves, their partners, and their customers Ports and Terminals Customs Systems Ocean Carriers Freight Forwarders / 3PLs Customs Brokers THE PLATFORM IS BUILT ON AN OPEN TECHNOLOGY STACK AND IS UNDERPINNED BY BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY Port Community Systems; Terminal Operating Systems Financial / Insurance Services Shippers / Beneficial Cargo Owner Supply Chain Visibility Systems Authorities Trade Associations Supply Chain / Transportation Management Systems

24-Aug-18 8 TRADELENS SOLUTIONS LANDSCAPE APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES NETWORK Comprised of the TradeLens network members, such as carriers, ports, and customs authorities, that connect to and provide data to the platform PLATFORM Accessible via an open API, the TradeLens Platform brings together the supply chain ecosystem and enables the industry to share information and collaborate; Blockchain and cloud technologies power the platform An open marketplace that allows both TradeLens and third-parties to publish fit-for-purpose services atop the TradeLens platform TRADELENS
24-Aug-18 9 TRADELENS AND BLOCKCHAIN Blockchain addresses the underlying challenges inherent in collaborating across a distributed, fragmented supply chain ecosystem SHARED LEDGER SMART CONTRACT PRIVACY TRUST Append-only distributed system of record shared across business network A network of industry participants maintains a distributed, permissioned ledger with copies of document filings, relevant supply chain events, authority approval status, and full audit history; every change results in a new, immutable block Shared business logic governing what transactions may be written to the ledger Cross-organizational business processes, such as import and export clearance, are preprogrammed and built into Blockchain and distributed to and executed on the network, preventing any member from changing the business logic Ensuring appropriate visibility; transactions are secure, authenticated and verifiable Cryptography enables permissioned access so only the parties participating in a specific shipment can submit, edit or approve related data Transactions are endorsed by relevant participants Information such as documentation filings and authority approvals can only be changed if endorsed by the parties taking part in the shipment; full audit history maintained on the Blockchain
