Optimind Inc. (hereinafter Optimind), whose mission is to "support a warm society with technology," has published the guidebook "Definitive Practical Q&A for Logistics Law Revision." This book compiles judgment criteria for specific questions faced by logistics managers and practitioners following the revision of the two logistics-related laws and the Act on Appropriateness of Transactions.
This material is composed based on questions gathered at logistics law revision seminars held over three sessions with a total of 1,422 participants. Mr. Yuki Awai, a lawyer at TMI Associates who also serves as a Digital Advisor to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT), supervised all the answers, explaining practical guidelines that are difficult to judge from public documents alone.

## Background of Publishing the Guidebook
As the application of the revised logistics-related laws goes into full swing, logistics departments are being asked to take unprecedented actions, such as the obligation for specific shippers to create "mid-to-long-term plans" and appoint a "Chief Logistics Officer (CLO)."
On the other hand, there is a lack of clear judgment criteria widely permeated regarding how to apply the revised contents to each company's actual operations and what level is required for governance, resulting in the current situation where companies are groping in the dark to respond.
Even in the logistics law revision seminars held three times by Optimind, many specific practical questions and doubts concerning legal compliance were raised by participants.
In response to this background, we have published this guidebook, which systematizes the "standards for practical judgment" to achieve both legal compliance and logistics efficiency.
