Introduction to the REETS-TEN Monitoring Phase The Monitoring Phase of the REETS-TEN Project includes the implementation of an open information platform on the experience gained during the project activities (Activity 7 "Information Platform"). This platform includes the monitoring and coordination of the pilot demonstration activities of EETS compliant services in several Member States participating in the REETS-TEN Project (Activity 8 "Monitoring of Testing / Implementation"). In a broader sense, the monitoring phase concretely tests the recommendations and results provided by the analysis phase particularly through the results of Activities 1, 2, 3 & 4 under real market conditions. The regional deployment of the REETS-TEN activities and pilot cases will follow the EETS conditions and are used to identify and tackle the challenges towards the future deployment of the EETS. The “Monitoring Phase” is based on four main Activities:

Activity 5: Interoperability Management

Activity 6: Return on Experience

Activity 7: Information Platform

Activity 8: Monitoring of Testing/Implementation – REETS-TEN Pilot Regions

Activity 5 will investigate the full chain of the Interoperability Management of the REETS-TEN implementation in order to highlight the main procedures ensuring the REETS-TEN cross-border interoperability. Activity 5 provides important contribution and clear rules for the smooth operation of Activity 8 as they seek to prepare the playing field for the future implementation of EETS. Furthermore, Activity 5 is closely connected with Activity 7.3 as the latter will seek to set up a common REETS-TEN Interoperability Management Platform that will gather the expertise and knowledge on REETS-TEN/EETS interoperability issues. Activity 5 represents the cornerstone of the monitoring phase as it provides the needed guidelines for defining and regulating interoperability issues that will be applied to the other activities. Activity 6 represents the portal of the REETS-TEN Project with the external stakeholders sharing and disseminating the main results of the project. It aims at interacting with other interested parties through “the return of the experience” giving them the possibility to make comments and provide feedback to the project consortium and therefore enriching the work carried out within each activity. Activity 7 brings together all the key information/expertise/knowledge developed within the REETS-TEN Project and translated into simple and comprehensive information for all the EETS interested parties. The outcome of this key task is the launch of an Information Sharing Resource Platform which will seek to guide and acquaint EETS stakeholders/users with the technical and commercial aspects related to the implementation of the REETS-TEN/EETS projects. Lastly, Activity 8, as already mentioned, focuses on monitoring and coordinating the pilot cases developed within the project and covering several Member States participating to the REETS-TEN Project (Activity 8 – “Monitoring of Testing / Implementation”).


1 REETS-TEN Activity 7: The main components, structure and modus operandi In compliance with and supporting the existing EC legislation regarding the Interoperability of Electronic Road Tolling the REETS-TEN Project aims at deploying EETS compliant services in a cross-border regional project. The Analysis Phase included the investigation of the contractual, commercial and technical issues, in order to develop recommendations and solutions that can facilitate the introduction of EETS. This work was performed in the period from September 2013 till June 2014 and included the following Activities:

Activity 1: Contractual Framework and Risk Management

Activity 2: Certification

Activity 3: Key Performance Indicators

Activity 4: Back Office Interfaces and Security

In particular, Activity 7 shall utilize the results from the previous activities, in particular the key findings of Activities 1 to 5 including also the results of Activity 8. The contribution of Activity 5 – “Interoperability Management”, which is working in parallel to Activity 7, is guaranteed through a regular exchange between the two working teams. The setting up of an Interoperability Management function including a Knowledge Base supporting the Information Sharing Resource Platform will take place. The work of Activity 7 is performed in four sub-activities which will produce the following deliverables:

D7.1 REETS-TEN Implementation Guide

D7.2 REETS-TEN Implementation of the Knowledge Base

D7.3 Report on REETS-TEN Interoperability Management Platform

D7.4 Options for a sustainable REETS-TEN/ EETS Interoperability Management Platform

The next chapters explain the various aspects and components of deliverable D7.2 and its interdependence with deliverables D7.1, D7.3 and D7.4.

1.1 Scope of the Deliverable

The REETS-TEN project seeks to facilitate the implementation of the EETS (European Electronic Toll Service) in an area in which interested Toll Chargers agreed to proceed in such a trial. The REETS-TEN project analysed, in its first phase, the (R)EETS-TEN implementation components, in order to highlight and, if possible, solve the issues that proved to be of hindrance for a smooth implementation process. The findings and recommendations of the Analysis Phase have been drafted and eventually agreed by all stakeholders represented in the REETS-TEN Project, thus representing a broad consensus among many stakeholders engaged with the implementation of EETS. The scope of this deliverable D7.2 REETS-TEN Implementation of the Knowledge Base is the following:


To collect and process the key information and components of the Information Sharing

Resource Platform stemming from the analytical and monitoring current phase of the

project;

To define the “content” and “information” to be shared within this Information Sharing

Resource Platform which are relevant for the implementation of the REETS-TEN/EETS.

1.2 Comprehensive overview of the "Information Sharing Resource Platform”

The main scope of this chapter is the description of the Information Sharing Resource Platform to be implemented in the frame of the REETS-TEN Project. In principle, the Information Sharing Resource Platform consists of the following components, as shown in the graph below.

Figure 1 Overview of the Information Sharing Resource Platform

The graph is a simplified and abstract representation of the elements needed for the functioning of the Information Sharing Resource Platform. On the one hand, the Information Database will be responsible to collect, process and manage the information gathered within the REETS-TEN Project. Secondly the REETS HELP DESK will then try to address the main questions and challenges raised within the project consortium and further questions raised by external stakeholders and users. The content of the Information Sharing Resource Platform, specifically the Knowledge Base, is described in details in Chapter 2. The implementation of this platform is discussed in Chapter 3, whereas further details of its implementation, concrete functioning and smooth management will be lately explained in Activities 7.3 and 7.4.


Information Sharing Resource Platform – Terminology:

Information Sharing Resource

Platform

Comprehensive information sharing resource platform,

providing up-to-date information on the REETS-TEN /

EETS through a single point of access on the Internet. This

platform will also contribute to the exchange of best

practice and dissemination of information on the REETS-

TEN / EETS among professional stakeholders.

(Commission’s Communication COM (2012) 474 final -

§4.1.)

Knowledge Base The REETS-TEN Knowledge Base contains the key

information concerning the implementation of the REETS-

TEN Project and it is based on two main components: the

Information Database and the Help Desk.

Information Database It represents the source of information of the Knowledge

Base. More specifically it collects, processes and manages

all the information and expertise of the REETS-TEN Project

(direct “Links” from the MS/ Stakeholders, EU institution

and the Best Practices of the REETS-TEN Project) and the

Best Practices coming from the real experiences of the

Project (Activity 8).

Help Desk It represents the dynamic part of the Knowledge Base

through direct communication with the users of the

platform. It will be the tool that will receive and manage all

the submitted requests and in addition will provide the tab

of the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).

1.2.1 Activity 7.2 Implementation of the Knowledge Base

The REETS-TEN Knowledge Base aims at gathering all the useful information concerning the implementation of the REETS-TEN project providing a comprehensive database to be used for the functioning of the Information Sharing Resource Platform. The Knowledge Base consists of an Information Database and the Help Desk. These two tools are closely interlinked as the latter uses the resources of the database to provide concise and clear information in the form of Frequently Asked Questions and Answers.

1.2.1.1 Information Database

The Information Database is the static part of the Knowledge Base with information about REETS-TEN and its procedures. The main purpose of the Information Database is to collect, process, manage and ultimately to share all the information related the REETS-TEN / EETS implementation, through a user friendly platform. More specifically, the information that will be provided through the “Information Database” are:

Information about the REETS-TEN Project;

Information about the Toll Domains within the REETS-TEN Project;


Information related to the status of implementation of REETS-TEN in each of the project

participating countries (Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain and

Switzerland);

Information about other key stakeholders involved such as conciliation bodies and notified

bodies;

Information on the best practises coming from the REETS-TEN experiences and

particularly from the pilot phase of the project;

Information on the Technical Equipment IDs already certified in each Toll domain.

The information that will be provided will be mainly categorized as follow:

Information about Toll Domains within the REETS-TEN Project (see Chapter 2.1.3);

Information about the REETS-TEN/EETS Providers (see Chapter 0);

Information about Technology Providers;

Information for Service Users (see Chapter 2.1.5);


1.2.1.2 Help Desk

This chapter describes the Help Desk of the REETS-TEN Project. The Help Desk is a dynamic interactive resource intended to provide the most frequently asked questions and the communication form. The main purpose of the Help Desk is to provide the main FAQs and responds properly to possible questions and requests (that are not including to the FAQs), from any stakeholder, in order to give provide further information about the implementation and operation of REETS-TEN, and possibly concerning the future implementation of EETS (further explained in the sub tasks D 7.3 & D 7.4). In addition, the Help Desk may collect and evaluate comments for the results of the REETS-TEN and the EETS implementation throughout Europe to enrich the Information Database. A list of pre-defined questions clustered according to the REETS-TEN / EETS stakeholders involved is prepared in order to address a wide range of topics. In case this list of preliminary questions and answers (FAQs) does not cover the topic raised in the inquiry, the Help Desk will channel the end user to the proper link (if possible) or communicate the requests to the responsible expert in order to provide the most comprehensive and clear answer.


2 Definition of the content of the Knowledge Base The REETS-TEN Knowledge Base is separated into two main components. These components will channel the information and expertise from the project to all the interested stakeholders outside the project in order to provide guidance on the implementation of the European Electronic Toll Service across different EU Regions and possibly to the future implementation of the EETS. On the one hand, the Information Database includes all the major issues examined during the analytical phase of the REETS-TEN Project together with other key elements that are relevant for the main stakeholders. The main stakeholders involved in the implementation of Directive 2004/52/EC and Decision 2009/750/EC. The information will be clustered according to the topic specifically addressed. A list has been created of all the relevant national links and information, in order to make it possible for any interested third-party to easily become acquainted with the various obligations and requirements in each toll domain.

Figure 2 Interaction between the Information Database and Help Desk

The second major component is the Help Desk where all the major questions related to REETS-TEN will be addressed. The Help Desk provides for external stakeholders looking for specific information, allowing them to pose specific questions, possibly not already covered within the available information. Experts within the project who are actively involved in the Information Sharing Resource Platform team, will consider and analyse carefully the questions received in order to provide appropriate solutions. The Help Desk therefore further enriches the Knowledge Base of the REETS-TEN Project.

Figure 3 Interaction between the Help Desk with External Stakeholders


2.1 Information Database

The Information Database of the REETS-TEN Project is built upon the analysis already completed within the different project activities. Furthermore, it uses the ongoing work in other activities belonging to the monitoring phase to provide in-depth information on more specific implementation aspects of REETS-TEN. All the major issues identified are then effectively translated in a concise but comprehensive manner in order to be easily transferred by the project partners to external stakeholders.

Figure 4 Structure of the Information Database

2.1.1 Terminology

This chapter is built upon the contribution from D 7.1 where a great effort has been made to clearly define the key terms related to the project.

2.1.1.1 Agreed terms and definitions within REETS-TEN

Clarification of terms is crucial, not only for the work within the REETS-TEN project, but also for the work potentially following from this project. The following table consists of the commonly agreed terms and definitions within the REETS-TEN project.

Term Abbrev. Short description

Accreditation The whole procedure (contractual and technical) to

be successfully fulfilled by a Service Provider in order

that its technical system could be accepted on a toll

domain and that the TC entrusts the SP with the toll

collection and the invoicing process to the EETS

User.

When the Accreditation is successfully completed,

the Service Provider is “accredited” in the relevant toll

domain.

Central System CS General term for the back-office systems of the TC

and the SP/EP.



Certificate

An EETS Provider’s or its representative’s official

written statement that its interoperability constituents

comply with the associated specified (technical)

requirements.

Cluster A cluster of ETC1 toll domains is a set of toll domains,

interconnected or not, which feature the same or very

similar ETC toll collection context(s) in a contractual

framework like Memorandum Of Understanding or

any other agreement between the toll domain

representatives, i.e. the Toll Chargers.

This agreement specifies the rules regarding

interoperability and its management within that

cluster of ETC toll domains; it includes references to

mutually agreed and shared detailed contractual,

procedural and operational documentation as well

functional and technical specifications (particularly,

interfaces for OBU // RSE and for Toll Charger //

Service Provider central systems). A cluster of toll

domains may have a unique representative for some

common subjects.

Relationship between toll domains and Service

Providers are fixed by bilateral contracts. Common

validity periods of bilateral contracts with a given

Service Provider allow the interoperability for the

global cluster.

Conciliation Body A body designated or established by a Member State

with at least one EETS domain within its territory, that

facilitates mediation between Toll Chargers and

EETS Providers.

Conformity to

specifications

For assessing interoperability constituents conformity

the manufacturer or his authorised representative

shall choose the procedures from among the

modules listed in Decision 768/2008/EC, see Annex

IV of the EETS Decision.

EETS Domain A Toll Domain (see specific term) falling into the

EETS coverage

1 ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection: electronic collection of tolls or road-usage fees on road networks falling under the scope of Directive 2004/52/EC/EC.



EETS domain

statement

A document developed and maintained by a Toll

Charger (or cluster of Toll Chargers) setting out the

general conditions for EETS Providers for accessing

the toll domain(s).

There is an obligation by the EETS Decision for each

Toll Charger, falling under the scope of EETS, to

publish such a document.

EETS Provider EP

A legal entity fulfilling the requirements of Art 3 and

registered in a Member State where it is established,

which grants access to EETS to an EETS User (see

Art 2 b of the EETS Decision).

EETS User Physical or legal person who subscribes a contract

with a Service Provider or EETS Provider in order to

have access to EETS compliant services (see Art 2 c

of the EETS Decision).

European Electronic

Toll Service

EETS

The abbreviation EETS stands for European

Electronic Toll Service. It is a service that enables the

payment of tolls with a single contract with a single

EETS Provider and just one On-Board Unit

throughout the European Union.

Interface A shared boundary across which separate

components of a system exchange information.

Interoperability

constituents

Any elementary component, group of components,

subassembly or complete assembly of equipment

incorporated or intended to be incorporated into

EETS upon which the interoperability of the service

depends directly or indirectly, including both tangible

objects and intangible objects such as software (see

Art 2 d of the EETS Decision).

Examples of interoperability constituents are on-

board equipment (including connected back office

systems), roadside equipment (including charging

beacons, localization augmentation beacons and

enforcement devices), EETS Providers’ and Toll

Chargers’ back-office data exchange systems.



Interoperability

Management2

IM All functions that enable the design, implementation

and operation of EETS. All functions shall be

performed by existing EETS stakeholders. The

functions shall be assigned to either one of two

clusters:

Interoperability management of the EETS regulatory

and technical framework (covers all functions on a

European level that enable the design and the

implementation of EETS services)

Interoperability management of EETS operation

(covers all functions on bilateral basis between Toll

Chargers and EETS Provider or between Toll

Chargers or Toll Charger clusters to operate

interoperable EETS domains)

Member State MS

EU Member State.

Notified Body A body notified in relation to Directive 2004/52/EC/EC

and Decision 2009/750/EC/EC that is entitled to

assess EETS interoperability constituents’ technical

and operational functional compliance.

For example, Notified Bodies may intervene to

assess the conformity to specifications and/or

suitability for use of EETS interoperability

constituents.

A coordination group of the notified bodies for EETS

(the NB-EETS Coordination Group) has been set up

by the European Commission to closely cooperate

with a view to coordinating their activities.

On-Board Equipment OBE3 The complete set of hardware and software

components required for providing EETS compliant

services which is installed in a vehicle in order to

collect, store, process and remotely receive/transmit

data (see Art 2 e of the EETS Decision).

REETS-

TEN

The REETS-TEN project aims at deploying EETS

compliant services in a cross-border regional project.

The REETS-TEN shall cover the toll network of 7

Member States (Austria, Denmark, France, Germany,

Italy, Poland and Spain) and Switzerland.

2 More information can be found in Chapter Fehler! Verweisquelle konnte nicht gefunden werden.. 3 Sometimes also referred to as OBU (On-Board Unit)



Registration The formal process to be completed by providers in

order to obtain the qualification of EETS providers,

as described by the Article 3 of the Decision

2009/750/EC/EU

Roadside Equipment RSE Fixed or mobile roadside equipment used for

charging (in DSRC-based toll systems), compliance

checking (e.g. enforcement devices) or localisation

augmentation (in GNSS-based toll systems, where

applicable).

Security Policy

A set of requirements and applicable counter

measures specified by the party responsible for the

security in a system exposed to threats. These

counter measures are based upon a risk analysis of

the system in order to protect those data exposed to

threats in the relationships between TC and SP.

Service Provider SP Company or entity offering the services of an EETS

Provider, but not necessarily formally being

registered as an EETS Provider.

Since the REETS-TEN project shall facilitate the

transition to EETS, it is recommended to generally

use “Service Provider (SP)”, except if “EETS

Provider” shall be explicitly addressed (e.g. in the

context of registration).

Service User SU Physical or legal person who subscribes a contract

with a Service Provider in order to have access to

EETS compliant services.

Suitability for use Suitability for use concerns the in-service

performance of interoperability constituents for end-

to-end operations. This process is performed by the

EETS Providers in cooperation with the Toll Chargers

and with respect to the Toll Chargers’ requirements

defined for their toll domain(s). It aims at validating

the end-to-end processes and performance

requirements.

Tariff class

The set of vehicles treated similarly by a Toll Charger

(see Art 2 g of the EETS Decision).



Technical accreditation The technical aspects of the accreditation of an

already registered EETS Provider in individual toll

domains under responsibility of a Toll Charger (or a

cluster of Toll Chargers).

Technical

requirements for

registration

Requirements defined by the Member State

responsible for the registration to check against

Article 3b of the EETS Decision.

Toll A charge, tax or duty levied in relation with circulating

a vehicle in a toll domain (see Art 2 j of the EETS

Decision).

Toll Charger TC

Public or private organisation which levies tolls for the

circulation of vehicles in a toll domain (see Art 2 k of

the EETS Decision).

Toll Context Data Decision 2009/750/EC/EU: the information defined by

the responsible Toll Charger necessary to establish

the toll due for circulating a vehicle on a particular toll

domain and conclude the toll transaction

Toll Declaration Decision 2009/750/EC/EU: a statement to a Toll

Charger that confirms the circulation of a vehicle in a

toll domain in a format agreed between the service

provider and the Toll Charger

Toll domain

An area of EU territory, a part of the European road

network or a structure (such as a tunnel, a bridge, a

ferry, ...) where toll is collected (see Art 2 n of the

EETS Decision).

Toll domain

independent

specifications4

Technical specifications for interoperability

constituents that are defined by technical standards

or other regulations or specifications independently

from individual toll domain requirements.

4 This term has been introduced in WP2 to describe the current status of the assessment of conformity to

specifications in some toll domains that differentiate between conformity to toll domain independent and

conformity to toll domain specific specifications. The current definition is rather high-level. A more thorough

understanding of this term would be beneficial for further harmonizing the procedures governing the technical

requirements for registration (conformity to toll domain independent specifications) and the technical

accreditation (conformity to toll domain specific specifications).



Toll domain specific

specifications2

Technical specifications for interoperability

constituents that comprise requirements that are

specific to the needs of the specific toll domain.

Toll Regime Decision 2009/750/EC/EU: the set of rules, including

enforcement rules, governing the collection of toll in a

toll domain.

Vehicle classification

parameters

The vehicle related information according to which

tolls are calculated based on the Toll Context Data

(see Art 2 q of the EETS Decision).

2.1.1.2 Terms in national languages

Documents relevant to the (R)EETS, such as EETS domain statements, will usually be written in the language used in the contracts between a Toll Charger and an EETS Provider (see also Application Guide section 5.3.2). This means that an EETS Provider has to deal with the large variety of official languages of the Member States. Translations of documents, whether certified or not, in one or more largely used European language(s) should help to avoid misunderstandings with non-native EETS Providers. Such translations are, however, voluntary. The following table lists the terms used in the EETS Decision (see Art 2 of Decision 2009/750/EC) in English and the official languages of the REETS-TEN countries. It also includes the most relevant terms of section 2.1.1.1 with the translations/synonyms in the respective national languages

2.1.2 REETS-TEN Implementation Procedures

The REETS-TEN project seeks to facilitate the implementation of the EETS in its area, as a consequence the description of the implementation procedures will follow as much as possible the logical steps, the definitions and in general the spirit of the Decision 2009/750/EC, in order to make as easy as possible to any stakeholder to interpret correctly the findings and the recommendations that have been developed on each of the four research areas (see chapter 1). For this reason also the steps/items that are not strictly speaking relevant in the REETS-TEN area are also dealt with, in order so to clearly state if they are applicable or not.

2.1.2.1 Registration

The REETS-TEN project Steering Committee agreed that to have a registration, in the meaning of the Decision 2009/750/EC, is not a prerequisite to enter the REETS-TEN pilots; at any event, being the implementation under the responsibility of the REETS-TEN States, should any of them decide so on independent basis, it could request Registration from Service Providers if the pilot scope goes as far as to the real payment service to the final users. Nevertheless:

An application from a Service Provider that has already obtained the formal Registration

in its Member State would be obviously welcomed and processed in the framework of

the REETS-TEN pilots;

REETS-TEN Toll Chargers may have their own internal procedures (q.v. subsequent

subchapters) in which information as detailed as those needed for the formal

Registration procedure may be required. Also in some cases OBE tests may be required

in order to assess whether they are fit, in terms of communication capabilities and in

terms of data exchange, to enter the suitability for use tests.

2.1.2.2 Accreditation

In the framework of the research activities of the REETS-TEN project, broad consensus appeared on the use of the term “Accreditation”. In the REETS-TEN terminology the term is described as follows:

Accreditation: the whole procedure (contractual and technical) to be successfully fulfilled by a Service Provider in order that its technical system could be accepted on a toll domain and that the TC entrusts the SP with the toll collection and the invoicing process to the EETS User. When the Accreditation is successfully completed, the Service Provider is “accredited” in the relevant toll domain.

In practical terms the Accreditation process consists of all the steps to be fulfilled at national/local level in order to fulfil all the conditions and start the service along the specified network/networks. In absence of a formal Registration obtained from a Member State authority according to the Decision 2009/750/EC provisions, the Accreditation may include an initial phase in which the candidate Service Provider has to provide the Toll Charger or its representative with relevant documentation, and if necessary submit its OBE to tests in order to confirm its conformity to specifications.

2.1.2.3 Accreditation procedure components

The accreditation procedure is composed of administrative tasks (e.g. documentation, contractual negotiations etc.) and of technology related tasks (e.g. certification, communication checks etc.).


Logical steps of accreditation

In general the logical steps of accreditation may be described as follows (see Fehler! Verweisquelle konnte nicht gefunden werden.).

Figure 5: Logical steps of accreditation

The four phases of the technical accreditation of a Service Provider included in the figure are based on the analysis done in Activity 2 (see also D2.3):

1. Checking preconditions

2. OBE and back office systems tests in a test environment

3. Trials in a test environment under operational conditions

4. Pilot operation in the operational environment Phases 1 and 2 of the technical accreditation need not necessarily be conducted in each toll domain, provided tests are equivalent. Among others, the REETS pilot will show whether common requirements and test specifications can be evolved. Phases 3 and 4 are toll domain specific and any Toll Charger (or cluster of Toll Chargers) may require any applicant Service Provider to undergo operational trials and pilot operation. Next to the four phases of technical accreditation, two other phases of accreditation include the negotiations phase, focusing on bilateral agreements regarding e.g. the contract, KPIs and financial issues, and the phase of regular service covering e.g. monitoring and securing the service. The negotiations phase may be placed at different levels of the procedure, depending on the respective toll domain; therefore its positioning/numbering is left to the specific cases. The figure is a general visual reference useful in getting a quick view of the steps that a candidate Service Provider will have to deal with. More information on the results and benefits from the analysis phase of the REETS-TEN project (Activities 1-4) can be found in Deliverable D0.1 Summary Document (V2.0, 23.07.2014). This deliverable summarises the most valuable findings regarding:

Contractual Framework and Risk Management (Activity 1)

Certification (Activity 2)

Key Performance Indicators (Activity 3)

Back Office Interfaces and Security (Activity 4)


Accreditation steps in each REETS-TEN country

As for the specific tasks of accreditation, their segmentation and their order may vary depending on the local situation (e.g. cluster of Toll Chargers being representative for the common tasks vs. exclusively 1-to-1 relationship between the Service Provider and the Toll Charger). In the following sections, the respective figures and tables show for each country/TC/TC cluster a short description of the above accreditation steps.

Austria

AUSTRIA Phase content Negotiation position

General information In general the REETS Acceptance Procedure is similar to the Acceptance Procedure described in the ASFINAG EETS Domain Statement. In just two points the REETS Acceptance deviates from the one described in the EETS Domain Statement:

Formal registration as an EETS Provider is not required in the REETS Acceptance Procedure

Signing of an LOI is replaced by Signing of an NDA

After Phase 1

Phase 1: checking preconditions

Phase 1 consists of the following five steps: 1. Declaration to become a Service Provider 2. Signing of NDA 3. Supply of non-public documents for TC to Service Provider 4. Submission of a technical and commercial concept by the

potential Service Provider 5. Plausibility check of the submitted concept by the TC

Negotiations 6. Agreement of commercial conditions between TC and Service Provider

7. Contract formation with reservation

Phase 2: tests in test environment

8. Suitability for Use Tests Part 1 and Part 2 (INT-1, INT-2, E2E-Test)

Phase 3: end to end tests under operational conditions

8. Suitability for Use Tests Part 2 (E2E-Prod)

Phase 4: Pilot operation 8. Suitability for Use Tests Part 2 (Pilot Operation

Regular service 9. Financial Security: Credit Insurance or Bank guarantee 10. Licence for unlimited operation


Denmark

DENMARK A/S Stroebaelt/ Øresundsbro Consortiet

Phase content Negotiation position

General information - The process for REETS-TEN and EETS are similar except the approval of equipment.

- Negotiations and a contract between TC and SP must be concluded prior to Phase 2.

- The contract is also covering license to operate provided the obligations are fulfilled.

The contract has to be signed prior to Phase 2, so the respective negotiations are a part of Phase 1


a. Declaration to become a Service Provider b. Signing of NDA c. Supply of non- public documents from TC to Service Provider d. Technical and commercial concept of the Service Provider e. Plausibility check by the TC

a. Agreement of commercial conditions

b. Contract formation with reservation KPIs, Financial issues

- Licence for operation


France (TIS-PL)

Phase 1 of the procedure makes reference to a preliminary phase (see red box) in which OBE manufacturers can submit their products for a qualification process; Service Providers can then purchase the already approved OBEs. The same procedure is applied also in the Spanish Toll Domains. A general description of the accreditation procedure can be found in Chapter 2.1.3

Italy

ITALY Phase content Negotiation position

General information A service has been created, called SIT-MP (Servizio Interoperabile di Telepedaggio – Mezzi Pesanti; Interoperable Electronic Tolling Service – Heavy Vehicles), compliant with the implementation of the EETS. A SIT-MP provider will be able to deliver to its clients, with vehicles >3,5t, an ETC service along the described network, by means of his OBEs. The candidates SIT-MP providers will be subjected to an accreditation procedure, and they will be asked to avail themselves with EETS interoperable OBEs, or at any event featuring also a DSRC module compatible with the ETSI ES 200 674-1 standard. The accreditation procedure is initiated at Aiscat Servizi, the entity to which all the Italian toll domains assigned the task to deal with the accreditation requests. Documentation can be obtained, on request and subject to an NDA, from Aiscat Servizi.


- Acceptance of a Non Disclosure Agreement; - Presentation to the candidates of the general conditions, of the constraints

for the access to the service and of the typology list of the specific conditions that the toll operators could require (the details on the specific conditions, that may contain commercially sensible information, will be disclosed by the toll operators during the Phase 2);

- Analysis of the candidate characteristics (company details, financials, etc.) on the basis of conditions jointly agreed by all the Italian toll operators and that AISCAT Servizi will submit to the candidates;


Analysis of the conformity and pre-suitability for use of the OBEs (including also laboratory and centralized test field tests)


Accreditation of the candidates by the Concessionaires and lane and systems tests, including: - OBE suitability for use tests, on the road, care of each Concessionaire,

with coordination by AISCAT Servizi only for the issues for which some central coordination may be necessary

- In the event of successful conclusion of the procedure, communication by each Concessionaire to AISCAT;

The negotiations phase starts after the phase 2. The individual Toll Chargers are informed by Aiscat Servizi that the candidate Service Provider passed the centralized checks, then the candidate Service Provider will negotiate the individual commercial conditions for each toll domain. This on the basis of a unique contract template, accepted by all


the participating Toll Domains and identical in all the clauses, commercial conditions being the only item subject to negotiation.

Phase 4: Pilot operation After the successful conclusion of the previous phases with all Toll Domains, the VRS (Verification of regular service) starts, in which a service will be authorized, with limits in terms of number of OBEs in circulation and in terms of verification duration; the successful end of the Phase 3 will be followed by the operational beginning of the full service. This phase can only start when all the Toll Domains tests are completed, due to the internal connection of the tolling procedures among the Toll Domains.


Poland

POLAND Phase content Negotiation position

General information Currently (13.03.2015) we don’t predict the operational phase. The Procedures for accreditation of REETS Service Providers are similar to EETS Service Providers within the PTCS toll domain which are described in the Technical Annex to the Toll Domain Statement.

Currently not applicable in the REETS-TEN Pilot in Poland.


Technical Compatibility Checks: Compliance statement review - confirm interoperability constituents meet the requirements of all relevant technical standards and required GDDKiA specifications OBU Tests - The SP may need to carry out additional OBU testing with the viaTOLL operator prior to entering stage 2, if the certification does not confirm compliance with necessary standards and specifications including the viaTOLL DSRC specification.


This stage involves connecting the Service Providers back office interface to the viaTOLL system and performing end to end tests of all main business processes.

1. The first step is a compatibility check of the Service Provider’s interoperability Constituents to ensure tests can be carried out. The Service Provider will be required to provide evidence of compliance with relevant technical standards and readiness for entry into End to end integration tests. Specifically the Service Provider will be required to provide evidence of (or carry out further tests to demonstrate) that the interoperability constituents of the Service Provider comply with the PTCS Back Office Interface specification.

2. The Service Provider has to provide test onboard units for this stage. The tests are carried out using Kapsch’s ‘staging’ system (test environment).


This stage involves checking all business processes are functioning correctly in the real (production) charging environment. Suitability for use (pilot) trials are carried out in the live system. The Service Provider has to equip real vehicles and generate transactions within the live viaTOLL system. These trials require end to end tests to be passed successfully and involve a demonstration of real operation using test onboard units within the live PTCS system.

Phase 4: Pilot operation According to current (13.03.2015) legal analyses/basis, it’s impossible to realize the operational phase.


Spain

The first phase of the procedure makes reference to a preliminary phase (see red box) in which OBE manufacturers can submit their products for a qualification process; Service Providers can then purchase the already approved OBEs. The same procedure is applied also in the French Toll Domains.

SPAIN Phase content Negotiation position

General information The procedure is defined in the document “EUROPEAN ELECTRONIC TOLL SERVICE IN SPAIN SUITABILITY FOR USE CERTIFICATION PROCESS FOR EETS PROVIDERS - Version 1.00“


In this phase, the potential EETS provider has to submit the OBE validation certificate previously obtained by the OBU manufacturer. The EETS provider has also to provide a list of the parameters that include their OBEs and acceptable values thereof. At the same time indicate the information needed to enlist the issuer in the different system from the Spanish toll chargers

Bilateral contracts required with all Toll Chargers


N.A. The OBE will have to be already certified by the manufacturer, therefore this phase does not apply as such, but is satisfied in advance.


Tests are performed in order to ensure the proper operation of the financial and billing circuits. Issuers must comply with the definition of files to be shared, the sending and receiving standards and the delivery frequency listed later in this document.

Phase 4: Pilot operation 15 days. No error is accepted in this phase.


Switzerland

At the moment of writing this deliverable, more details regarding the accreditation procedure in Switzerland are being developed.


Other components of accreditation

Independently from the order they are dealt with, the accreditation procedure for the REETS-TEN pilot may include the following relevant components:

Pre-acceptance (provision of information from the Service Provider to the Toll Charger

(or cluster of Toll Chargers)

Conformity to toll domain specific specifications

Data exchange procedures

Economic and Financial Issues

KPIs with conformance criteria

Consequences, if e.g. KPIs or SLAs are not met

Customer Service

Enforcement

Privacy and data protection

Confidentiality, Regulations regarding confidentiality of contractual provisions.

Publicity and Trade Mark Protection, Regulations regarding intellectual property rights

and the use of trademarks

General contractual issues

The majority of the above mentioned topics are often dealt with in detail in the contract negotiation phase, that has to be dealt with on a one by one basis and that, for commercial reasons, may be also under the provisions of specific NDAs. Some topics are already described in the national EETS domain statements or in specific deliverables (e.g. data exchange procedures). Since the REETS-TEN coordination does not stretch so far no further specific detail at national level is given here; applicant service providers should be ready though to deal with the topics shown.


2.1.3 Information on the Toll Domains within the REETS-TEN Project

In the following the REETS-TEN area is schematically described, as segmented in its countries. For each REETS-TEN country basic information is given in the following tables, e.g. how many toll domains are present in the country, which Toll Chargers are operating the Toll Domains and, where applicable, which Toll Chargers representatives are in charge for certain functions. The basic contact details are also provided. Where possible also technical details are available in the tables. A complete listing of the toll chargers and of the contact details is available in D7.1 - Appendix 1.

France (TIS-PL)




In France, the 18 TIS-PL Toll Domains are relevant for the REETS project. These 18 Toll Domains are operated by 18 Toll Chargers members of ASFA.



Applicant service providers will enjoy an initial single access point to a single accreditation procedure; the contact point is the ASFA’s Commission Télépéage, gathering the 18 TIS-PL Concessionaires. The accreditation of the service provider starts with the checking of specific pre-conditions. One of these conditions is to check that the OBU to be used is already certified by the ASFA’s Commission Télépéage. The procedure to certify the OBU is already described in REETS Activity 2 and summarized as follows:

1- Standards conformity

2- Transaction model conformity

3- Tests in test environment

4- Operational tests

There is a list of OBU already validated by the ASFA’s Commission Télépéage available for service providers.

Once the pre-conditions are fulfilled the accreditation procedure aims to check the parameters and personalization of the OBU by the Service provider and data exchange between the Service provider and the Toll Charger (financial and billing circuits). End-to-end tests under operational conditions are made in all toll chargers domains

EETS Registration is not required to enter the pilot in the French TIS-PL Toll Domain under the REETS implementation.

Italy




In Italy 25 Toll Domains are subject to the EETS application according to the Directive 2004/52/EC/EC and to the Decision 2009/750/EC/EU. The responsible institutional entity in charge of the application of the EETS related EU legislation is the Ministry of the Infrastructures and of Transport, that supervises the implementation of the EETS and that also acts on certain functions, such as the institutional information and the establishment of the conciliation body. Tolls are collected in Italy along a network of 5813,5 km of tolled motorways and alpine tunnels, and also along a tolled link of some 5 km of length between two towns.



Applicant service providers will enjoy an initial single access point to the procedure; the contact point is the technical branch of the Italian Toll Motorways Association (Aiscat), whose name is “Aiscat Servizi”, see also below for contact details. The initial steps of the procedure will consist of documental verification and conformity and communication laboratory checks of the OBE. Once the initial steps will have been cleared the applicant service provider will have to proceed to pass contracts with all the toll chargers, and to perform the OBE suitability for use tests. The tests will be conducted in a coordinated way though, i.e. tests specifications will be common for all the toll chargers and for the large majority of the network they will require only the provision of OBEs at central level, not to each and every toll charger. EETS Registration is not required to enter the pilot in Italy under the REETS-TEN implementation.

The legal basis of the operational toll domains in Italy are those of the use of the « concession » tool ; concessions (basically a contract between the State/Region and a company) empower the signing company to build and to operate in behalf of the public sector stretches of roads ; the costs are covered by the toll revenues. All the Italian toll domains comply, in legal terms, with the provisions of the Directive 1999/62/EC (a.k.a. eurovignette) and its amendments. For the EETS as such, the reference is the Ministerial Decree 458 of 6th July 2010 of the Ministry of Infrastructures and Transport..

Spain




In Spain 41 Toll Domains managed by 29 toll concessionaire companies are subject to the EETS application according to the Directive 2004/52/EC/EC and to the Decision 2009/750/EC/EU. The responsible institutional entity in charge of the application of the EETS related EU legislation is the Ministry of the Transport (Ministerio de Fomento), that supervises the implementation of the EETS and that also acts on certain functions, such as the institutional information and it is recognized as conciliation body by a specific resolution (Resolución de 20 de Septiembre de 2012 de la Dirección General de Carreteras del Ministerio de Fomento)

Tolls are collected in Spain along a network of 3,007 km of tolled motorways. 2,759 km are granted by the Central Government and the remaining 548 km are awarded by Regional Governments.



Applicant service providers will enjoy an initial single access point to the procedure; the contact point is SEOPAN, the Spanish constructors and concessionaire companies. The accreditation of the service provider considers two different elements:

A- The accreditation of the OBU: The OBU has to be

previously validated by SEOPAN according to a specific procedure divided in four steps:

5- Standards conformity 6- Transaction model conformity 7- Tests in test environment 8- Operational tests There is a list of OBU already validated by SEOPAN available for service providers.

B- Suitability for use: This procedure aims to check the correct information interchanged with the Toll chargers (financial and billing circuits). En-to-end tests under operational conditions are made in all toll chargers domains

EETS Registration is not required to enter the pilot in Spain under the REETS-TEN implementation.

2.1.5 Information for the Service Users

Within the REETS-TEN Project several Service Providers are operating interoperable toll charging services or are developing and improving such services in the REETS TEN area. The interoperable service in the context of REETS-TEN is sustainably growing. An overview about the Toll Domains where an interoperable service is currently provided by the Service Providers as well as their future planned priorities according to Activity 8 Monitoring of Testing / Implementation of REETS-TEN can be found on the following pages. For the Information Sharing Resource Platform, it is important that the information within this chapter “Information for the Service User” is regularly updated within the Information Platform and on the website. It provides the Service User an actual overview about the Service Providers in operation in REETS-TEN, their future priorities and finally if EETS is established, the information about the Service Providers, within the EETS environment. The Service User benefits from the table and the map to get very comprehensive the information about the geographic areas of interoperable service provision by the Service Providers in REETS-TEN on the one side, on the other side chapter 2.1.4 provides all necessary contact details and further information to the Service Providers via their direct links.

Map 1: Service Provider priorities in the REETS-TEN Project

According to the first table shown the list of involved toll domain with the respective Service Providers are explained together with the status of their pilot activities. The map above represents, as already mentioned, the current situation concerning cross border pilot activities of electronic toll collection monitored by Activity 8 (cross border pilot operations). The specific areas where the pilot activities will take place according to the interests and focus of the service providers involved are clearly highlighted. According to the map, different scenarios are here described: pilot activities already in operation (green areas), the priority areas within the REETS Activity 8 (in red) and possible areas where the current pilot activities will be extended or new pilot activities will be started. These activities have just recently started and they will directly contribute to the ‘best practice’ examples developed within the REETS-TEN Project. The developments occurring in Activity 8 will be constantly reported and updated in the Information Sharing Resource Platform in order to provide concrete elements for the future implementation of EETS.


2.2 Help Desk

The REETS-TEN Help Desk represents the dynamic tool to obtain access to the information resources developed within the REETS-TEN Project and to actively interact with the project experts. The REETS-TEN Help Desk ensures that the key questions related to the implementation of REETS-TEN are properly addressed while also analyzing the inputs and concerns stemming from external stakeholders.

Figure 6 Structure of the REETS-TEN Help Desk

The REETS-TEN Help Desk communicates through the Information Sharing Resource Platform where a specific section will be set up in order to provide in a concise and comprehensive manner the main information gathered within the project. Furthermore a more interactive section containing the most frequently asked questions together with the ad-hoc answers is uploaded into the platform. External stakeholders/visitors have the possibility to pose direct inquiries to the REETS-TEN Information Sharing Resource Platform and, when useful, directly contribute to enrich the Knowledge Base or to further analyze relevant issues (e.g. relevant for the implementation of the REETS-TEN pilots).

2.2.2 Link to Coordination Group of Notified Bodies

The Coordination Group of Notified Bodies is set under the framework of and reporting to the Electronic Toll Committee assisting the European Commission in EETS-related issues. The NB-EETS Coordination Group works on the procedural and certification related questions, appearing from requirements of Directive 2004/52/EC and Decision 2009/750/EC on the interoperability of electronic toll systems in the community. The main aim of the NB-EETS Coordination Group is in that regard to facilitate the deployment of EETS by the Member States, Toll Chargers, EETS Providers and Technology Providers/Manufacturers. In principal, all information related to the Coordination Group of Notified Bodies (NB) can be found under www.nb-eets.eu.

http://www.nb-eets.eu/


2.2.2.1 Official published list of Notified Bodies for EETS

The official list of notified bodies regarding Decision 2009/750/EC is available in the NANDO (New Approach Notified and Designated Organisations) Information System at the website of the European Commission DG Enterprise and Industry under: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/newapproach/nando/index.cfm The actual names and details of the NBs can be found under the directory legislation “Decision 2009/750/EC (implementing Directive 2004/52/EC) - Interoperability of Electronic Road Toll Systems”: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/newapproach/nando/index.cfm?fuseaction=directive.notifiedbody&dir_id=140661

2.2.2.2 REETS-TEN Members / Procedures concerning Notified Bodies / Conformity to Specifications

The REETS-TEN members approach to the EETS implementation is based on their national conditions and experiences as provided in the deliverables of the REETS-TEN project.

The four phases of the technical accreditation of a Service Provider included in the figure are based on the analysis done in Activity 2 (see also D2.3):

1. Checking preconditions

2. OBE and back office systems tests in a test environment

3. Trials in a test environment under operational conditions

4. Pilot operation in the operational environment

Especially in Stage 1: Checking preconditions in some REETS-TEN countries a “Conformity to Specifications” declaration is requested for assessing interoperability constituents conformity. As a result, it shall draw up the interoperability constituents ‘EC’ declaration of conformity to specifications, where applicable subject to obtaining an examination certificate from a notified body as listed under www.nb-eets.eu. In principle, Annex IV of the EETS Decision currently does not explicitly differentiate between conformity to specifications, which are toll domain specific or toll domain independent, but the EETS Decision does also not prohibit such differentiation. The results of REETS-TEN Activity 2 showed that the certification process could consist of the following phases:

1. Registration

1.1 Conformity to toll domain independent specifications

2. Technical accreditation in a toll domain

2.1 Conformity to toll domain specific specifications (if required) 2.2 Suitability for use

Each Toll Charger defines the scope of the phases according to their toll domain specific needs. In some toll domains, the phase conformity to toll domain specific specifications is skipped completely if it is of no support for the suitability for use phase. A declaration of conformity to toll domain independent specifications is subject to obtaining an examination certificate from a notified body. Actual information and templates about the declaration of conformity to specifications are available at http://www.nb-eets.eu/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/TS-01-on-Declaration-of-Conformity-for-EETS-constituents-rev.0-10_2014.pdf and http://www.nb-eets.eu/declaration-conformity-specifications/.

2.2.2.3 Guide on Applicable Standards

The applicable standards for the interoperable services in the REETS-TEN countries are defined by the Toll Domain Statements of the Toll Chargers. A good overview of applicable standards based on Directive 2004/52/EC and Decision 2009/750/EC is available at the NB-EETS Coordination Group and is called “GUIDE ON APPLICABLE STANDARDS”. This guide is available under: http://www.nb-eets.eu/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/TG_01_on_EETS_Standardization.pdf.

3 Designing the Information Sharing Resource Platform Taking into account the Commission’s Communication COM (2012) 474 final in the frame of the REETS-TEN Project, the comprehensive Information Sharing Resource Platform will provide up-to-date information on REETS-TEN / EETS as a single point of access on the Internet. This platform will directly contribute to the exchange and dissemination of up-to-date information on EETS among professional stakeholders. At the current stage, this information platform relates to the REETS-TEN project and its participants. Taking into account the future development within D 7.3 & 7.4 and the results of Activity 5 and Activity 8, the Information Sharing Resource Platform may be updated or redesigned in order to provide a more comprehensive and concrete picture of the requirements needed for the REETS-TEN / EETS implementation.

3.1 Structure of the Knowledge Base

The “Information Sharing Resource Platform” structured by two main sections:

The Intranet Data Toolbox (Collects and Manages the EETS data/ produce the Info-

product)

Knowledge Base (Disseminate the Info-product) The general structure of the “Knowledge Base” is to be organized in two sections:

The Information Database will include per category all the information (e.g. direct “Links”

of the MS / NoBos / Others & REETS-TEN Best practices / Results)

The “Help Desk” will be the interactive communication part of the “Information Sharing

Resource Platform”. It is the point that will receive and manage all the submitted

requests and in addition will provide the tab of the Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ

including the relevant answers.

3.2 Implementation of the Knowledge Base

The implementation of the Knowledge Base, will follow a two phases approach according to the available data and the REETS-TEN procedures:

The first phase: design the Knowledge Base structure (in line with the sub-task 7.3). The

data that will be disseminated in the first phase will stemming, prepared through the

Intranet Data Toolbox, from the current REETS-TEN results (Activity 1 - 4), the “Links”,

the Frequently Asked Questions & Answers (FAQ & As will be prepared by the REETS-

TEN partners – Activity 7) and the direct communication form.

The second phase: will include other elements related to the monitoring phase (including

the results of Activity 5 and Activity 8, a list of more updated FAQs – submitted during

the second phase through the Intranet Data Toolbox) and future changes and

improvements (redesign) of the structures – procedures of the online platform taking into

account the experience of the first phase.


07.11.2014 27.12.2014 15.02.2015 06.04.2015 26.05.2015 15.07.2015 03.09.2015 23.10.2015 12.12.2015 31.01.2016

Second Phase/ Operationalversion

First phase / Pilot phase

3.2.1 Timescale

The foreseen time schedule for the implementation of the Knowledge Base is:

The first phase will start by the end of April 2015

The second phase will start (full operation) by the beginning of July 2015

Figure 7: Time schedule


3.3 Design parameters

The REETS-TEN website will host the link of the Information Sharing Resource Platform (within the frame of Activity 6). As referred in previous chapters, the main purpose of the comprehensive knowledge tool is to provide up-to-date information on REETS-TEN / EETS as a single point of access on the Internet. A list with the current design parameters of the Information Sharing Resource Platform includes the following:

The link of the “Information Sharing resource Platform” webpage should be prominently

in the front page (Index webpage);

The link of the “Information Sharing resource Platform” should be available in all tabs

through the REETS-TEN website www.reets.eu;

The design of the Information Sharing Resource Platform will be corresponding with the

existing design of the REETS-TEN website;

The main content related to the REETS-TEN results section will be a link inside the

REETS-TEN webpage and the related information, i.e. links to the separate deliverables;

All the information available to the Information Sharing Resource Platform will be

produced and updated by the Intranet Data Toolbox management team;

Inside the Information Sharing Resource Platform will produced an internal part - Intranet

Data Toolbox;

The FAQs will be provided in two ways:

o FAQs inside related categories

o With a search mechanism based on a search with a Key Word;

The FAQs will also channeling to information inside the platform if it is requested;

The communication form will be the form needed if external stakeholders want to submit

a request;

The communication form will be available in the end of each section of the Information

Sharing Resource Platform; The list of parameters is going to be updated after the first phase of the pilot, taking into account the sub-task 7.3 and the results of the pilot phase. The design (ergonomic – interface – interactive structure) of the Information Sharing Resource Platform will be made in cooperation with the web designers of the REETS-TEN webpage and the Knowledge Base operation team, taking into account the Information Sharing Resource Platform structure as described within this document. More details related to the implementation and operational procedures of the platform will be defined by deliverable D7.3.


4 Conclusions Sub-task 7.2 aimed at providing the content of the Knowledge Base of the REETS-TEN Project in order to set up both the Information Database and the Help Desk. These tools provide a clear and comprehensive guidance to the REETS-TEN / EETS stakeholders addressing the key issue of interoperability amongst different electronic toll services. Users will have the possibility to consult the Information Sharing Resource Platform in order to find the most relevant information concerning the deployment of the REETS-TEN project while getting some insights on the future deployment of the EETS. All the partners of the project, from Toll Chargers to Service Providers and Members States involved in the REETS-TEN Project, have actively contributed in the setting up of this platform. Their roles, responsibilities, main operations and key concerns are clearly explained in the document and in the overall Activity 7. The REETS-TEN Information Sharing Resource Platform ensures a constant dialogue with stakeholders that are both part of the REETS-TEN project and outside the project consortium. This platform represents a first attempt to build an interactive communication tool providing up-to-date information and assistance to a wide range of actors regarding the interoperability of electronic toll services in Europe. Starting from a regional perspective, with the implementation of the REETS-TEN activities, the Information Sharing Resource Platform seeks to channel the expertise and experience developed within this important European cross-border project to all interested/concerned parties. The success of this initiative could make the case for a wider European Platform in the future providing the necessary information and support for the implementation of the EETS. This key aspect will be further elaborated by deliverable D7.4.
