MAIN FINDINGS FROM THE COMPARISON Sample Clauses

MAIN FINDINGS FROM THE COMPARISON. In the Mumbai Dabbawalas case study the partnership between the suppliers and Dabbawalas is a co- operative movement whose communication with the costumer has remained unchanged for decades, and is exclusively informal, meaning, without any structured communication policy. The urban logistic practice selected in the case study of Belo Horizonte presents a service that provides organic food products through planned routes directly from the producer to the final consumer. However, from the analysis of the different examples of successful urban logistic measures, it is possible to conclude that most of the innovative business concepts presented rely on partnerships other than the typical buyer- supplier relationship, with the expectation to improve performance (efficiency) and accessibility of their services as core value propositions. Moreover, some business concepts were only effectively implemented because they were sustained by public administration policies, which provided availability of warehouse spaces or accessibilities and, in some cases, financial incentives, resulting in partnerships with the municipality or other government administrations. It is the case of the new Monoprix logistics organisation including a rail segment within the transport chain, whose feasibility study was conducted on the initiative of the Direction Régionale de l'Equipement and the Chronopost and La Petite Reine companies, which developed with the Municipality of Paris the “Urban Logistic Space” concept. In order to meet the municipality environmental requirements and restrictions, and also looking forward towards improving the service performance, some companies developed joint ventures to develop these new services. This is also the case of the La Petite Reine company, which specifically developed the tricycle needed for its business with a local manufacturer, and the Beer Boat that is operating in the City of Utrecht. The need to optimise resources and to also obtain other supporting services and infrastructures, leads to partnerships among competitors, such as in the case study of Japan, where the key partners are exclusively private. In these cases, the relationship with the costumer (business-business) is called collaborative, meaning, they share infrastructures and services expecting to exchange knowledge and problem solving, which are common to other logistic companies. In these business model comparisons three key activities in urban logistics were considered: Prod...

  • DOES THE SPR NEED TO BE UPDATED IF INFORMATION CHANGES Yes. It remains a continuing obligation of the principal or his/her authorized agent to update the SPR whenever any of the information provided on the initial form changes. WHERE DO THE SPR AND ANY UPDATES NEED TO BE FILED? The SPR needs to be filed with the County Department or County Division processing the application or matter. If and when an additional expenditure is incurred subsequent to the initial filing of the SPR, an amended SPR needs to be filed with the County Department or County Division where the original application, including the initial SPR, was filed. WHEN DO THE SPR AND ANY UPDATES NEED TO BE FILED? In most cases, the initial SPR needs to be filed with the other application forms. The SPR and any update must be filed with the appropriate County Department or County Division not less than seven (7) days prior to the BCC hearing date so that they may be incorporated into the BCC agenda packet. (See Section 2-354(b), Orange County Code.) When the matter is a discussion agenda item or is the subject of a public hearing, and any additional expenditure occurs less than 7 days prior to BCC meeting date or updated information is not included in the BCC agenda packet, the principal or his/her authorized agent is obligated to verbally present the updated information to the BCC when the agenda item is heard or the public hearing is held. When the matter is a consent agenda item and an update has not been made at least 7 days prior to the BCC meeting or the update is not included in the BCC agenda packet, the item will be pulled from the consent agenda to be considered at a future meeting.

  • Initial Forecasts/Trunking Requirements Because Verizon’s trunking requirements will, at least during an initial period, be dependent on the Customer segments and service segments within Customer segments to whom CSTC decides to market its services, Verizon will be largely dependent on CSTC to provide accurate trunk forecasts for both inbound (from Verizon) and outbound (to Verizon) traffic. Verizon will, as an initial matter, provide the same number of trunks to terminate Reciprocal Compensation Traffic to CSTC as CSTC provides to terminate Reciprocal Compensation Traffic to Verizon. At Verizon’s discretion, when CSTC expressly identifies particular situations that are expected to produce traffic that is substantially skewed in either the inbound or outbound direction, Verizon will provide the number of trunks CSTC suggests; provided, however, that in all cases Verizon’s provision of the forecasted number of trunks to CSTC is conditioned on the following: that such forecast is based on reasonable engineering criteria, there are no capacity constraints, and CSTC’s previous forecasts have proven to be reliable and accurate.
