  • Evaluation of previous pilot projects on e-CMR and their outcome, noting the key aspects, such as challenges and benefits;
  • Survey of the Italian road transportation and logistics industry in terms of knowledge level on: e-CMR, digital equipment, needs and barriers to the implementation of the e-CMR (also through, for example, SWOT analyses, meetings with stakeholders, joint market analyses, surveys, etc.).
