Engineering designs, prototypes, production lines ... if we could only see into the innumerable workshops and laboratories currently working toward the production of one—or more than one—part of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ machine it would be dizzying. In a short time, components for °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ will begin to arrive on site in a carefully planned order that is closely associated with building and assembly schedules.

An important contract was signed this month that establishes the conditions for the transport of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ components from suppliers' factories to the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ site. The (LSP) Framework Contract—which provides for global transport, logistic and insurance services—was signed on 10 February with the European company DAHER by Director-General Osamu Motojima on behalf of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Organization and the seven °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Members.

For the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Organization this was a first-of-a-kind joint procurement, carried out in close collaboration with the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Members. Within the boundaries of the contract, each Domestic Agency will now contract directly with the LSP provider by means of a Task Order for all of its transport needs.

Following a planning phase, during which the Domestic Agencies will furnish detailed information on foreseeable requirements, shipments will begin in 2014. Every aspect related to the transport of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ loads—including customs management at departure and arrival, logistics, insurance, intermediate storage before delivery, handling, and final unloading at the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ site—will be handled under the LSP contract. DAHER will work through either a local partner or a local subsidiary in each °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Member country.

The largest °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ loads will arrive by ship from China, Europe, India, Japan, Korea, Russia, and the United States and travel by night over the 104-kilometre . Agence Iter France (AIF) will act as the interface between the French authorities (préfecture, gendarmerie) and the Logistic Service Provider for all matters related to the use of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Itinerary.

"The transport of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ components from so many different points on the globe and according to schedule is a logistics challenge of major proportions," stated °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Director-General Motojima on the occasion of the contract signature. "An integrated Logistics Service Provider will be fully qualified to address these challenges and assure the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Organization and the Domestic Agencies of optimized coordination."
