Macromanagement of ITS and Logistics Services Demand and Supply

The development and deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems and logistics services will ultimately need to be integrated within larger transport and communications policies and programs on the state level. Although the basic tehnical standards and the European ITS architectural framework are ensured, several macromanagement issues are open. In our environment transport telematics and ITS were initially deployed as a set of semi-autonomous local implementations with different actors from the transport, communications and computing industries. The development of ITS and logistics services are evolutionary and their implementation relies on their interactions with other services and potentionally with services outside the ITS domain. The national ITS architecture and Intelligent Transport City models (such is CROCITS) define technological and beyond-technological frameworks within which the ITS user service can be successfully implemented. Effective planning and coordination of logistics and implementation have to ensure: - prevention of undesirable side effects, - system coherency and interoperability, - public/private partnership. The paper will consider the ITS macro-management as a set of measures and instruments aimed at effective demand and supply management of ITS and logistics services. Within the ITS architectural framework and the accepted ITS program, specialized ITS activities can be harmonized among actors. The paper will also analyze the direct and indirect "system interactions" between the end-users and the operators.
