Assessment

  1. DIL aims to assess the application within five (5) working days, validating whether the applicant meets the minimum requirements as described in point 3 and point 4;

  3. This promotion does not apply in combination with other promotions and/or offers and is not transferable without permission;
  4. The assessment will take place as follows: a. to fulfil the objective of the Living Lab, namely to stimulate data sharing in a logistics chain, DIL will evenly distribute these 20 spots across the different categories of companies. b. the following category distribution will be used as a starting point: * Four (4) terminals, * Ten (10) carriers, * Six (6) shippers/freight forwarders. c. the first-come, first-served principle also applies to this distribution, until a category has reached the maximum number of participants.
  5. If DIL has assessed the application positively, the applicant will be informed and the start date of the pilot will be mutually agreed upon;
  6. DIL expects every party to start the agreed pilot within six (6) months after the voucher scheme is awarded. Should it unexpectedly appear that a party to whom the voucher scheme has been awarded has not started the pilot within six months, DIL reserves the right to withdraw the award and transfer it to another party, or to adjust the overall distribution and/or the number of vouchers.
  7. In some cases, DIL may decide, in agreement with the relevant party, to extend the duration of a voucher;
  8. If it becomes apparent in the interim that a redistribution of the number of vouchers must take place for any reason, DIL is entitled to implement these changes, for which only written notification is required;
  9. DIL reserves the right to withdraw an applicant's participation and reclaim the voucher value that has already been paid out, if it later appears that the award was based on incorrectly obtained information, fraud, deception and/or it otherwise emerges that the applicant should have known that the submitted information was based on incorrect information;

Effectiveness and Financial Conditions

  1. One voucher has a value of €10,000 excluding VAT;
  2. The actual activation will take place in phases in accordance with the agreed start date in the award; DIL expects that an average of ten (10) pilot phases will start per year in 2024 and 2025;

    • proof of the number of eCMR transactions during that period
