Commerce Plus Haz

Haz is a national electronic dangerous goods reporting system. Developed in conjunction with Shipping Australia, Haz was designed to meet the following criteria:

  • A national system
  • Simple, easy to use webform for MDGFs (Multi-modal Dangerous Goods Forms)
  • MDGFs being validated against the IMO standards
  • Improve time for Shipping Line approvals of draft MDGF
  • AMSA and Port Authority access

Based on the above, Haz was developed with the following functionality:

Imports

  • Translation of EDI and Proprietary Flat Files from Shipping Lines to Port Authority EDI Standards
  • Web interface to complete missing or incorrect data prior to sending
  • Data validation against IMO standards and local port requirements prior to sending to Port Authority
  • Validation of Bayplan to ensure all Hazardous materials are reported
  • Reuse existing data for transit cargo
