Celebrating e-CMR
Today during the Day of the Truck driver Bossche Bollen are served to drivers at Scheuten Glas, Brouwers Transport and Leen Bakker. These companies celebrate that drivers have been at the forefront of applying e-CMR in recent years. As a company from ‘s-Hertogenbosch, Collect + Go has provided the technology that made this happen. Deelnemende bedrijven Scheuten Glas, one of the market leaders in the Netherlands in glass panes for the construction industry, has been working with e-CMR for three years. Drivers from the transport companies Lannutti/Schade, Bascon, P. Daemen, Simon Loos, Kees Koopman, Emons, Eurogaume and Glass Transport Group apply the e-CMR process in Scheuten’s supply chain, upstream and downstream. Brouwers Transport from ‘s-Hertogenbosch has been working with e-CMR for two years now. Drivers handle their administration within the ZF/Transics workflow. The process runs in the background. This saves a lot of paper and hassle. Leen Bakker is a user from the very beginning. As a token of appreciation for years of use, Jan de Groot’s delicacy is also available here.

AI Integration for e-CMR
AI integration for e-CMR AI integration container- and sealrecognition On October 24, Sentors, Pharox and Collect + Go launched the first AI integration for e-CMR during the final DDSZ event at VDL Steelweld in Breda. During this event, interested parties could experience how drivers can automatically create e-CMRs from their daily work process when they take photos of container and seal numbers. These photos provide additional information in the context of visibility and transparency in the supply chain. Another advantage of this way of working is that it provides more flexibility in handling by drivers. It is not always known in advance which container is being transported. Only after arriving at the location the driver will be told which container is ready to go. A flow in which documentation is built up based on user activities was therefore desirable. The application of AI technologies, in addition to existing OCR techniques, offers new opportunities to organize processes differently. Intermodal Container Transport Venlo (CTV) is the first to apply this innovation when drivers pick up an export container for their customers. This will build up the first data to train the model for recognizing seal and container numbers. The first datasets for containers and seal numbers have already been processed within the AI application. Availability We developed this integration in collaboration with Sentors and Pharox within Digital Data Square South Netherlands (DDSZ).
e-CMR Cargocard integration
Automatic linking of eCMR at pickup and return of containers That’s what we do with the Cargocard integration. More than 27,000 drivers are already in possession of the Cargocard issued by Secure Logistics. They need this card to pick up or return containers at/to the port. After (biometric) verification of their identity, they get access to the terminal premises for loading or unloading. From that moment on, the renewed e-CMR flow starts. A number of additional checks are immediately performed in the background. After pick up or return of the container, the driver swipes his card on exit of the terminal or card reader at the counter at the customer. At that time, various signatures are placed on the e-CMR. The driver also immediately receives the e-CMRs by e-mail. This is necessary on inspection. This new way of working was introduced in September at Combi Terminal Twente (CTT) in Hengelo. Drivers who pass the gate after loading, automatically receive their e-CMR. When unloading, CTT’s customers sign for receipt within the Modality Truck app. Modality has expanded its system for this with a link to our e-CMR solution. This integration is also available for transporters that operate ZF Transics (TX Flex and Solo). The use of the e-CMR is a good example of optimization and digitization within the supply chain and offers the following benefits: Extra security via identification of driver and company credentials Instant access to signed documents More efficiency and convenience for the driver Less risk of errors, delays and loss of documents Invoicing immediately after delivery A more sustainable solution compared to the paper version Please fill in the form below if you want to know more about.

e-CMR certification ISO27001:2017
Data protection eCMR ISO27001: 2017 On June 16, KIWA awarded the ISO27001:2017 certificate to Collect + Go. This allows our customers to always rely on the highest standards in business operations and information security. Highlights: guaranteeing secure information facilities; protecting critical processes; protecting and correctly processing personal data; responding adequately to incidents; achieving information security awareness among employees and other stakeholders; integrating information security & privacy into daily practice; In addition to this certification, the Collect + Go platform is also certified for the e-CMR protocol.
e-CMR HUB: data exchange between e-CMR providers
e-CMR HUB: data exchange between e-CMR providers e-CMR providers Cargoledger, Collect + Go, Logistiek Zonder Papier and Pionira are working together on a generic open API structure to handle each other’s e-CMRs. They do this with the e-CMR HUB within I4TRUST. By adding Fiware and iSHARE technology in the mutual cooperation, we make it possible to recognize and further process each other’s transactions. A user within one platform can then sign an e-CMR on the other platform. In addition to this function, an inspection process is also being worked on. Consortium member 51BIZ from Luxembourg shares knowledge in the field of inspection by public authorities. On May 12, we presented this setup to the Benelux governments and other e-CMR providers within the e-CMR Benelux working group. There, this initiative was positively received. It was also suggested that this initiative be given a place within Basic Data Infrastructure (BDI), an initiative within Rijkswaterstaat. Funding is made available from the EU to develop and integrate these compatibility functions into the solutions of the participating consortium members.
Electronic consigment note Germany
electronic consignment note OR E-cmr can be applied in Germany as of todaY. A number of our customers immediately put their money where their mouth is by activating eCMR for logistics flows from Germany to the Netherlands and vice versa. Germany accounts for 50% of all cross border road transportation in the EU. The adoption of the digital consignment note is now raised to above 90% on all cross border road transports. Thorough preparation for introduction of digital consignment note It is expected that this new way of working can be introduced silently. The German federal states were involved prior to the ratification of the e-CMR legislation. After ratification on September 17, 2021 by the German parliament, the government has taken the time to work out the implementation. Would you also like to put it to the test and get started with e-CMR?
