Definition	M	Concept (status) that describes the action to wait for the interlocks or sequence made by the subject (CHE) that is going to perform an order type cargo between the Moving to Deliver and Ready to Deliver activities and it is already in proximity of the “laden end location”, but didn’t reach it yet	TIC Description
Further Detail	O	Queuing To Deliver is true between the moment the subject reaches the queuing (geofence) area and the moment the subject reaches the “laden end location” (the final position of the cargo for the cycle process included in the order, usually called drop location). This queuing area usually is next to the laden end location and must be defined by the terminal. The subject (CHE) usually will be idling (idle) within this area but in case is not necessary to wait for any interlock then could be just working and it will not last. The start of Queuing To Deliver is the end of the Moving to Deliver activities and the end is just when the CHE is Ready to Deliver the first time. The Queuing To Deliver state is not mandatory and it may happen that it does not exist for a certain terminal, jumping from Moving To Deliver to Ready to Deliver. Specific cases, from the equipment point of view: STS: The Ship-to-shore spreader stays (idle or working) with cargo (locked spreader) within a safe area, after the Moving To Deliver activity, where it can wait for the carrier or any other interlock. Usually, this area is over the land-side portal beam for back-reach operations and the seaside portal beam for between-lane operations. An STS with two trolleys could be doing two job-steeping at the same time, so we recommend defining the subject by trolley and not by CHE. TT/AGV: The Terminal Tractor or the AGV stays (idle or working) with cargo (slot locked) within a safe area, after the Moving To Deliver activity, where it can wait for another CHE or any other interlock. Usually, this area is next to the transfer area. RTG/RMG/ARMG/ASC: The gantry crane or the ASC stays (idle or working) with cargo (locked) within a safe area, after the Moving To Deliver activity, where it can wait for a carrier or TT/AGV or any other interlock. Usually, this area is over the first row next to the truck lane or transfer area or wagon but may be different for loading or discharging operations. SC: The Straddle Carrier crane stays (idle or working) with cargo (locked) within a safe area, usually next to the location in the yard or transfer zone where have to drop up the cargo for queuing in case doesn't have access or need to wait for an interlock.

Introduction to concept type “job-stepping”:

The concepts type job-stepping describes a status (what does or is the subject) related only to concepts (action) that “moves” cargo. The objective of this type of concept is to define what type of activity is doing the CHE to move the cargo. There are 6 basic subprocesses to perform a move:

Moving to Collect
Queuing to Collect
Ready to Collect
Moving to Deliver
Queuing to Deliver
Ready to Deliver

All the steps are optional and would depend on the order. For one specific order, only one Job-stepping concept can be “true” at the same time.

_{TT order job stepping for Vessel load - 4 job steps example}

_{TT order job stepping for Vessel discharge- 6 job steps example, geofence available}

The https://tic40.atlassian.net/l/cp/S8dYAjXu (instruction to execute a sequence of steps) is the natural subject of the job-stepping, so we will include by default the concepts for each step under “order” but these concepts can be used with other subjects like CHE, user, cargo, etc.
