SKEMA
SKEMA - Sustainable Knowledge Platform for the European Maritime and Logistics Industry
Øresund Logistics has in collaboration with other network participants, intiated the project SKEMA.
SKEMA is a three year project funded by the European Commission - DGTREN under the Seventh Framework Programme. It is aimed at establishing a Sustainable Knowledge Platform for the use of stakeholders in the Maritime Transport & Logistics industry.
The SKEMA Knowledge Platform will contain a Knowledge Base that will be populated by project Studies and outputs from workshops and case studies addressing key challenges for the European maritime transport and logistics industry. The Studies will be constructed to facilitate improved usability and accessibility of valuable results from previous projects, studies & publications.
SKEMA will:
· Facilitate the exchange of information amongst stakeholders in the European maritime transport and logistics industry, raise awareness of relevant research, provide overview and detailed information on current technologies and best practices at European, regional and national levels;
· assist in the recognition of obstacles that hinder the implementation of European policies and in proposing and assessing solutions;
· providing base material that will help in the formulation of advice on various policy initiatives, such as legislation, (including simplification), standardisation, research, networking and co-operation between administrations.
Consolidation Studies will provide a coherent view of key aspects of Maritime Transport and Logistics, based on the challenges posed by the Commission’s Mid-Term Review.
Periodic Studies will address areas of interest to DGTREN in a focussed and well-scoped manner.
The Thematic Network will engage the maritime transport & logistics industry in the activities and outputs of SKEMA.
The SKEMA Knowledge Base will make available to the maritime transport and logistics community the essential elements of the Consolidation & Periodic Studies in an attractive, easily comprehendible style, readily accessible through contextualisation of the information in subject-specific categories as specified in the SKEMA Subject Index and the SKEMA Policies Index.
