Freight data requirements study
This Freight Data Requirements Study will identify and articulate the data requirements of a broad range of stakeholders in the freight and supply chain sector. It will determine those requirements that can be satisfied from existing information sources, and those that would require new data, and new collection processes.
It will also seek to understand the circumstances under which companies would be open to sharing data.
Additionally, this Freight Data Study will examine how this pool of data might be stored, analysed, and disseminated, in order to support the sector’s decision making.
