Abstract

This report presents a demonstration plan for the electronic exchange of Government Bill of Lading information using Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) concepts. EDI concepts are based on widely accepted transaction set standards that permit the computer-to-computer exchange of transportation information. The report identifies transportation activities that should participate and presents a preliminary design for the demonstration. Keywords include: Defense Transportation, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), transportation information, standards, transportation standards, and logistics systems.
