Table 11 Second round Delphi on the issue of a new or modified standard

Delphi Panel Added Statements	Agreed	Disagreed	No Comment
One single set of (aligned) standards would be good	47.8 %	21.7 %	30.4 %
A new or modified standard is not necessary, ISO and maybe other standards have a very static approach and rarely encourage new standard developments	45.7 %	17.4 %	37.0 %
Yes a new or modified standard specifically focussed on transport that enables companies to show their commitment to sustainable solutions.	43.5 %	23.9 %	32.6 %
No need of a new or modified standard. There are already too many rules. The problems are not the rules but the application beyond the image game.	37.0 %	30.4 %	32.6 %
Yes a new or modified standard with well defined public KPIs would ensure the service level	34.8 %	32.6 %	32.6 %
A new or modified standard is necessary, the best practice example is supply chain security ISO 28000	21.7 %	30.4 %	47.8 %
