What level of effort is required?

The extent of the necessary adjustments depends heavily on a company’s level of digitalisation. Companies already using digital solutions such as the eCMR will require only minor adjustments to meet DCA requirements. Those working with partially digital processes will need to adapt interfaces and workflows to capture and provide data correctly. Companies that currently rely on paper-based processes face a fundamental shift in their transport documentation.

Overall, companies that have already implemented digital standards clearly benefit from shorter implementation times and easier integration. The Open Logistics Foundation supports this development by providing open and interoperable solutions that help companies implement digital obligations efficiently and in a future-proof manner.
