Overview
Great majority of the European rail freight industry has presented individual plans addressing the Strategic European Deployment Plan on implementation of the technical specification for interoperability telematics applications for freight. These plans have been synchronised and form a comprehensive Strategic European Deployment Plan in this field.
Preparation of strategic European deployment plan for the European-wide implementation of the technical specification for interoperability telematics application for freight.
The creation and synchronisation of this plan has been underpinned by an analysis of its major perceived risks (business, financial, technical/operational) in order to ascertain its ultimate robustness.
Deliverable is based on individual stakeholder responses to the proposed Framework Plan.

STRATEGIC EUROPEAN DEPLOYMENT PLAN (attached).
Innovation aspects
Strategic European deployment plan includes the identification of those major system and sub-system activities that are necessary to achieve the implementation of the telematics application for freight system, their aggregation within a set of project phases that is conducive to intermediate and verifiable tangible results within the context a detailed planning of the project phases for each actor in the European rail freight industry.
Technical Implications
Recommendations on technical and organisational aspects of system operation and maintenance that can ensure the sustainability of revenue operations under acceptable levels of system availability and operational performance are included in attached Strategic European deployment plan.
Policy implications
In Strategic European deployment plan is included the identification of the governance structure to allow the development of the TAF system and subsequently its field operation and management as well as the funding of the corresponding activities. The governance scenarios are appropriate for all RUs and IMs in the freight business and they will also be able to include intermodal operators, wagon owners and logistics companies.
