Training on the new ADSp
The Allgemeinen Deutschen Spediteurbedingungen 2017 (General German Freight Forwarders' Terms and Conditions, ADSp 2017) are a joint recommendation by the associations of the shipping industry and the freight forwarding sector. Since 1927, they have continued the tradition of providing the companies involved in industry, trade, freight forwarding and transport with a ready-made contractual framework for handling all types of forwarding business. More than earlier versions, the new ADSp 2017 use balanced clauses to create a fair balance of interests between the contracting partners.
In addition, the ADSp 2017 are recommended for non-binding application not only by the Federation of German Industries (BDI), the Federation of German Wholesale, Foreign Trade and Services (BGA), the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce (DIHK), the German Freight Forwarding and Logistics Association (DSLV) and the German Retail Federation (HDE), but for the first time also by the Federal Association of Road Haulage, Logistics and Disposal (BGL), the Federal Association of Furniture Forwarding and Logistics (AMÖ) and the Federal Association for Business, Transport and Logistics (BWVL).
Forwarding business is regularly carried out on the basis of these tried-and-tested conditions. The market acceptance of the ADSp is very high. More than 90 percent of German freight forwarders work on the basis of this set of clauses, which contains contractual terms tailored to forwarding activities. This gives companies in the shipping industry the advantage of encountering uniform business conditions, even when they work with different forwarding partners.
For this reason, it was especially important to us to train our commercial staff comprehensively on the changes introduced by the ADSp 2017, which have been in force since the beginning of the year. Alongside a great deal of specialist knowledge, the friendly cooperation during the breaks, including a delicious snack, also played an important role.
