Design and deployment of the model ‘TSI’ for modeling the processes of the IRFT chain between Morocco and Spain

The objective of this article is to model the processes of an International Road Freight Transport chain (IRFT, henceforth) for an eventual monitoring and optimization of their deadlines. In order to achieve this goal, we have designed an integrated model, that we have named `TSI', by combining three methods; namely, the Top-down approach, the tool `Supplier, Input, Process, Output, Customer' (SIPOC) and method `Integration Definition Language 0' (IDF0). Then we have deployed the model obtained at the level of IRFT chain between Morocco and Spain. This implementation allowed us to decline the chain into three levels (from the chain to macro processes, from macro processes to processes and from processes to activities).
