Germany - Green Logistic - Fruit Logistics Hong Kong GOOD OLD DAYS HAVE DESERTED HONG KONG
The Year of the Dog has already cocked its leg on Hong Kongs port business and the year has barely started. Just last week the official 2005 container throughput figures were released and there was not much to celebrate: Not only did the port grow by just 2 percent, it also lost its world No 1 title to Singapore.

India NEW INDIA TERMINAL AWARDED
New India terminal awarded - A consortium including three Chinese companies has been selected to develop an international container terminal at Vizhinjam in Indias south-western Kerala state. A 2005 study found that the Vizhinjam project would bring down the total cost of movement of containers to and from foreign destinations as it expects to wean traffic away from nearby transhipment ports. About 61 percent of Indian containers are transhipped through the foreign ports of Colombo, Singapore and Salalah, adding as much as $200 in costs per TEU. |
UK - Law SMALL BUSINESS CONCORDAT
The Small Business (SME) Friendly Concordat is a voluntary, non-statutory code of practice. The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM), the Local Government Association (LGA) and the Small Business Service (SBS) strongly encourage all Local Authorities (in England) to sign up to the Concordat. The National Procurement Strategy for Local Government (October 2003) sets a target for all Local Authorities to have adopted the Concordat by the end of 2005.
The purpose of the Concordat is to set out what small firms and others supplying Local Government can expect when tendering for Local Authority contracts. It is not intended that smaller suppliers automatically be given a competitive advantage when tendering for local government contracts due to the Concordat, but there are certainly steps that all contracting authorities can take to ensure that suppliers of all kinds are treated equally.
The Concordat also sets out the standards that public sector buyers should expect from their suppliers.
Both the Concordat and the Good Practice Guide represent a commitment from Local Government to encourage and develop appropriate levels of competition in local government markets in order to increase value for money and foster innovation, particularly from those businesses/suppliers who may find it difficult to break into this market. These may include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which themselves could include local businesses, ethnic and minority owned businesses (EMBs), women-owned businesses, social enterprises and voluntary and community organisations (VCOs). These are all sectors of the business community that can find themselves under-represented in local Government procurement1. It may also include suppliers that prefer not to use e-Procurement on religious and other grounds. Подробнее... |
