BTS Gestion des transports et logistique associée: independent foundations key terms

A coordinated movement using relevant modes and terminal interfaces, requiring suitable first and last legs rather than judging only the main carriage.

A capacity-rating concept that requires the applicable tariff and assumptions, not a universal substitute for physical weight, dimensions, arrangement, or vehicle suitability.

The load borne by an axle under the actual distribution, which can be unsuitable even where the vehicle’s overall mass remains below its limit.

An agreed receiving interval whose feasibility depends on the whole chain, rather than proof that every journey and handover will automatically occur on time.

A full-container service arrangement that does not guarantee complete physical filling or remove packing, mass-verification, customs, and documentary-release obligations.

A less-than-container-load service involving consolidation with other consignments, adding relevant handling, compatibility, timing, and charge interfaces to the sea leg.

Verified gross mass of a packed container under the applicable process, including the relevant contents and tare rather than only net goods mass.

A non-negotiable maritime transport document whose release and party information must be understood rather than treated identically to every order bill of lading.

A tariff-related dimensional measure calculated under the applicable defined model, reflecting capacity use without physically changing the cargo’s gross mass.

The weight basis selected under the actual rating rules, which can differ from scale mass and requires correct dimensions, comparison, rounding, and minimum treatment.

Master and house air-waybill levels representing relevant contractual and shipment relationships, whose fields should be mapped rather than copied indiscriminately.

A portion of a shipment moved separately, requiring quantity and status tracking until the complete required delivery milestone has actually been reached.

A dangerous-goods identification element within the applicable framework, not by itself permission for every package, quantity, route, condition, or mode.

An outer consolidation arrangement that can affect visibility and handling while leaving relevant requirements for the enclosed packages and cargo in place.

A stock-selection principle prioritizing relevant earliest expiry among suitable inventory, which can differ from the order of arrival or the lowest purchase price.

The ability to connect actual goods, lots, locations, times, conditions, and records so that events and affected units can be identified reliably.

A model component related to distance traveled, applied with the actual stated coefficient without automatically absorbing driver hours or daily standing charges.

The difference between selling price and relevant cost divided by selling price, distinct from applying a percentage markup to cost.

A defined measure of orders delivered on time and in full, whose promised date, complete quantity and measured population must be stated consistently.

The modeled activity level where total contribution covers relevant fixed costs, dependent on the stated price, variable cost and capacity assumptions.

An agreement defining relevant service expectations, responsibilities, measurement and review, without creating unlimited physical capacity or eliminating exceptions.

The stated organizational and activity boundary used in an emissions calculation, necessary for a meaningful comparison of factors, allocations and results.

An agreement concerning carriage whose parties, obligations, evidence and applicable framework must be distinguished from the sale and cargo-insurance contracts.

A structured analysis identifying relevant facts and issues, stating an applicable rule, applying it to the situation and explaining a bounded conclusion.
