Standard Terminology for Goods Movement Process (GMP) Precise Foundational Definitions
1.1 During the Goods Movement Process (GMP), there exists a Planning Phase, an Execution Phase, and a Reconciliation Phase. Each phase distinguishes statuses, some that are called milestones. The GMP relates to defined transportation needs and the executing of transportation services based on those needs. This standard seeks to precisely define the statuses such that even if the reader is unfamiliar with these terms, the reader will be able to relate to the exact moment of described status change. A status generally occurs in a specific phase, but may also occur in another phase (see 4.1 for more details).
1.2 Standardize the Goods Movement Process into Planning, Execution, and Reconciliation phases.
1.2.1 In the Planning Phase, the statuses are Posted and Pre-Booked, and the milestone is Booked.
1.2.2 In the Execution Phase, the milestones are En-Route and Delivered.
1.2.3 In the Reconciliation Phase, the milestones are Invoiced and Archived.
1.3 Logically sequence terminology to align with the sequence in which events and statuses will generally occur in practice.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International StandardDetails, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
