The Cluster

The digital transformation of road freight transport is no longer an option but an increasingly imminent regulatory requirement. The recent approval of the Sustainable Mobility Act marks a turning point in the sector’s document management processes, mandating the digitalisation of the transport control document while also promoting the use of digital formats for the Consignment Note and the eCMR.

Cluster Catalonia Logistics is pleased to present a new educational webinar designed to provide a clear, practical and up-to-date overview of the new legal framework, in collaboration with Docuten.

On 2 July, we will host the webinar entitled: “Mandatory Digitalization of Transport Documentation: Key Aspects of the New Legal Framework”. During the session, we will examine both the current regulatory landscape and the upcoming changes, as well as the key technical requirements that a compliant digital solution must meet.

Main topics:

1. Legal framework: Current situation and upcoming changes. An overview of the regulatory environment surrounding the digitalisation of road transport documents in Spain and across Europe:

• Current status of the digital use of the Consignment Note and eCMR.

• Key developments introduced by the Sustainable Mobility Act: obligations, implementation timelines and scope of application.

• Specific obligations for each stakeholder in the supply chain: shippers, carriers and logistics operators.

• Consequences of non-compliance: penalties, operational risks and legal implications.

2. Requirements for a compliant digital solution. Key requirements that any technological solution must fulfil to be considered compliant with current regulations:

• Types of digital signatures required for each document and their legal validity.

• Traceability, document integrity and immediate availability.

• Management of supporting documentation and key functionalities (driver changes, comments, attachments, etc.).

• Integration considerations with internal systems (ERP, TMS and others).

This session is aimed at logistics and transport managers, legal and compliance departments, digital transformation teams and, logistics operators and shippers seeking to prepare for these new obligations and turn regulatory compliance into an opportunity for greater efficiency and operational improvement.
