1.1 本指南提供了船东和船厂之间用于合同管理的电子数据交换（EDI）信息的数据库结构。船东（以下简称船东）和造船厂可各自拥有独特的软件程序，以管理其各自的船舶维修期。合同期间，双方必须交换信息。本指南旨在建立通用字段长度、名称和类型，以便交换的信息可以由相应的软件程序直接使用，而无需扫描、键入或冗余键入信息。 1.2 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 ====意义和用途====== 3.1 预期用途- 遵守本指南将允许缔约方之间共享通常通过硬拷贝完成的电子数据。只有当双方使用数据库衍生软件包来管理其合同时，才可以使用此功能。具体而言，它将: 3.1.1 消除在各方合同管理软件包中手动输入数据的重复 3.1.2 允许所有授权方广泛访问数据。

1.1 This guide provides the database structure of electronic data interchange (EDI) information between ship owner and a shipyard for contract administration. Ship owners (hereinafter referred to as owners) and shipyards may each have unique software programs to manage their respective portions of a ship repair period. There is information that must be exchanged between the parties during the contract period. This guide has been developed to establish common field lengths, names, and types such that the exchanged information can be used directly by the respective software programs without scanning, typing, or redundant keying of information. 1.2 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 3.1 Intended Use— Compliance with this guide will allow the sharing of electronic data between contracting parties that is normally done by hard copy. This can only be used when both parties use a database-derived software package to manage their contracts. Specifically, it will: 3.1.1 Eliminate the duplication of manual entry of data into each party’s contract administration software package and 3.1.2 Allow for wide access of the data to all authorized parties.
