Working Groups

 

Since March 2008, working groups have been reorganised so as that each of the 3 steps to CBP implementation is covered by one working group: defining business processes, message and workflow design, developing technology standards. Another group will be dedicated to CBP Implementation.

1. Business Process Working Group

Establishing common/universal processes for a.o. nomination/renomination timings, matching, gas allocation, operating balancing agreements, shipper identification and shipper codes.

Contact: Mike Young mike.young@centrica.co.uk

2. Message and Worflow Design Working Group

To analyse business requirements (e.g. subsequent to Business Process WG accepted proposals) and to transcribe those into message content/application definition, including modification and/or enhancement of the existing Edigas messages/protocol.

3. Technology Standard Working Group
