1. Assessment and future challenges for Pan-European Corridors IV, V, and VII Dr. Vasileios Zeimpekis Design, Operations & Productions Systems Lab Department of Financial & Management Engineering University of the Aegean vzeimp@fme.aegean.gr 11th Southeast European Freight Forwarders and Logistics Providers Congress «SOUTHEAST EUROPEAN INTERMODALITY» 16 th & 17 th May, 2013

2. Agenda The GIFT project: Main aim & objectives Assessment Methodology List of Key Performance Indicators Assessment results Proposals for green intermodal freight transport in the S.E.E. region

3. Main aim & objectives. The main aim of the current project is: – to map, analyze, and evaluate the status of the transport sector in the GIFT transport network, – propose new policies and strategies in infrastructure, processes, assets, ICT, legislation, norms and harmonization/ standardization issues, and – Develop tools & methodologies for CO 2 emissions monitoring …..in order to promote innovative green intermodal freight transport corridors. Main objectives – Identify current status of the freight transport sector – Improve interoperability and intermodality of freight transport on land, IWW, and sea – Identify green corridors in the SEE region by promoting technical innovation and a shift towards the least polluting and most efficient modes of transport – Develop an ICT tool for CO 2 footprint monitoring & certification – Develop agreements & MoUs on multi-modal connections

4. Assessment methodology o Use of KPIs for the assessment of the corridors based on 6 categories: service quality & efficiency, infrastructure, environmental sustainability, ICT, and Transport market/ Business players o Collection of data from : o EUROSTAT, EL.STAT., OECD o Operational data from Key players /stakeholders from S.E.E. region o EU reports and National Transport studies/roadmaps o Data from NGOs and Int. Organizations (π.χ. W.H.O) o Studies from consulting companies (McKinsey, Deloitte) o Use of transportation models for the calculation of results in Corridor Level

5. Categorization of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) Service Efficiency Relative unit cost Transport time Frequency of service Service Quality Delay risk Cargo loss Cargo damage Reliability Environmental Sustainability Noise Protection Polluter CO 2 Polluter SO 2 Infrastructure Refueling stations Infrastructure charges Number of accidents Electrification Capacity utilization Transport market- Business players Corridor Competitiveness Corridor Freight market ICT Cargo monitoring
