“Men work together, I told him from the heart/
Whether they work together, or apart.”Robert Frost

Cultural heritage is a global responsibility, it has the ability to connect people, to foster cultural understanding and to promote tolerance.
If we are to make the most of the principle of cultural heritage and the potential of greater mobility, then we must address the practice of its management.

The international community is a network.
If we want to make that network work as efficiently as possible, we have to apply the principles of the supply chain and address the following areas:
•People
•Processes
•Systems
•Information
•Cost

The rate of mobility is a function of national and individual policy.
Increasing the rate depends on:
•Improving discoverability
•Removing constraints
•Identifying motivations
•Simplifying processes
•Minimising risk

The way it works today...

Our vision is of a European (potentially Global) infrastructure which enables cultural organisations to:
•Discover collections across the Globe
•Establish and maintain bonds of trust
•Automate the exchange of documentation
•Share a common understanding of process
•Minimise costs & operational overhead
•Build longer-term value

In the real world...
![Page 30: Applying the Supply Chain Model to Collections Mobility](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062710/559a72c31a28abf7538b46fe/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
These are long-term solutions. We need simple lightweight solutions which work for now:
•Ensuring that collections information can be indexed by Google (discoverability)
•Harmonising around a single European Cultural Loans Documentation Framework based on the International SPECTRUM standard (removing constraints)
![Page 31: Applying the Supply Chain Model to Collections Mobility](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062710/559a72c31a28abf7538b46fe/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Ensuring that National Governments identify Mobility as a priority policy agenda (motivation)
• Using SPECTRUM 4.0 schema to enable Collections Management Systems to share core data automatically (simplifying processes)
• Ensuring that connections between organisations are ongoing and incremental to build trust (minimising risk)
![Page 32: Applying the Supply Chain Model to Collections Mobility](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062710/559a72c31a28abf7538b46fe/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
A single European Cultural Loans Documentation Framework based on SPECTRUM
•A core, common set of elements
•A set of documents available under a Creative Commons License (so they can be downloaded, repurposed and shared)
•Embedded into national/local policies
•Embedded into Collections Systems

Is technically inefficient as a network, but it has grown organically and works in practice.
If we’re going to achieve lasting improvement, we have to work with the grain of established custom and practice.
But, it is unlikely that the improvement will happen spontaneously, it needs to be driven and nurtured.
![Page 36: Applying the Supply Chain Model to Collections Mobility](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062710/559a72c31a28abf7538b46fe/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
In conclusion...
Mobility depends on the efficiency of the network
There is an opportunity to make the network more efficient
Standardisation/harmonisation has been hard to achieve, is it possible?
Is there an organisation that people would trust across the EU to drive this change?
