HAZ

Tradegate and Shipping Australia have developed a national electronic dangerous goods reporting product, HAZ. This product was developed based on feedback from the industry for:

• 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

Using this feedback 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
