What Is The SmartWay Transport Partnership?
Launched in 2003, the SmartWay Transport Partnership is a public/private collaboration between
the EPA and the freight industry to improve fuel efficiency, increase environmental performance,
and encourage supply chain sustainability.
Seven types of freight transport companies can join SmartWay.
•	Freight shippers
•	Logistics companies (including 3PLS/4PLS1)
•	Truck carriers
•	Rail carriers
•	Barge carriers
•	Multimodal carriers
•	Air carriers
Companies join the SmartWay Transport Partnership by submitting a Partner Tool to SmartWay. The
SmartWay Tools (1) assess freight operations; (2) calculate fuel consumption and carbon footprints;
and (3) track fuel-efficiency and emission reductions. SmartWay Tools must be submitted each year
1 3PLs/4PLs Third party logistics/fourth-party logistics companies.
2 | P a g e

-------
for the company to remain a Partner in good standing. Tools submitted and approved on time
qualify partners to use the SmartWay Logo.
SmartWay ranks Partners' efficiency and environmental performance and recognizes
superior performance through the SmartWay Excellence Awards.
Why Do Mir Freight Carriers Join The SmartWay Transport
Partnership?
The SmartWay Transport Partnership provides Air Freight Carriers with ways to reduce the
environmental impact of their freight operations and address costs. Designed with and for the
freight sector, the SmartWay Transport Partnership delivers solutions to marketplace needs and
challenges. With access to the latest in EPA-tested technologies and peer-provided success stories,
carriers that join the SmartWay Transport Partnership can gain a better understanding of their
environmental footprint and assert their corporate leadership.
Additionally, SmartWay Partners are associated with an internationally recognized and respected
brand that symbolizes cleaner, more efficient transportation choices.
Shippers that join SmartWay move significant amounts of freight with SmartWay Carriers. The
higher efficiency of SmartWay carriers compared to non-SmartWay carriers gives SmartWay Air
Freight Carriers an opportunity to improve corporate freight efficiency, reduce their carbon
footprint, and voluntarily advance freight sustainability for themselves and their customers.
Participation in SmartWay helps SmartWay Air Freight Carrier Partners
•	identify opportunities to improve efficiency
•	demonstrate efficiency to customers and stakeholders
•	evaluate and compare carrier performance, and
•	determine the company's transportation carbon footprint
SmartWay provides Air Freight Carriers with free Tools that help assess and compare various freight
transportation options with detailed reports and analyses that support better business decision
making.
How Do Mir Freight Carriers Join The SmariWav Transport
Partnership?
Air Freight Carriers join SmartWay by submitting a SmartWay Air Tool (hereafter known as the "Air
Tool," or simply, the "Tool.")
Air Carriers that submit tools that are approved by EPA are known as "SmartWay Air Carrier
Partners."
3 | P a g e

-------
When an air freight carrier submits an Air Tool to EPA, they agree to the requirements stipulated in the
SmartWay Partnership Annual Agreement for Carriers-notably, that they will measure and report the
emissions performance of their company annually and provide supporting documentation to EPA upon
request.
SmartWay Air Freight Carriers agree to complete and submit the SmartWay Air Tool to:
•	define fleet composition
•	characterize company activity
•	individually benchmark multiple fleets
•	track annual changes in performance
Upon approval of an Air Tool submission, an aircraft company will be identified as a SmartWay Air
Carrier Partner on EPA's website, on the SmartWay Partner List, and in a database used to identify
companies that meet SmartWay's annual requirements. The carrier will also receive information on
how to access its current SmartWay Registration Document.
How Do I Join If My Parent Company Has Multiple Fleets?
Companies that join the SmartWay Partnership should include all of their fleets in their submission.
If a company wishes to list multiple fleets in the Air Tool, they should list these fleets as their
customers hire them. Internal fleets invisible to a customer should not be listed separately.
Companies will be listed at the Company level in the SmartWay Partner list on the SmartWay
website, and each individually defined fleet will appear as a separate entity in the SmartWay Carrier
Data file that customers use to identify which fleets they do business with in the Air Tool.
SmartWay highly recommends developing your list of fleets before beginning
your data entry process. Any fleet that a shipper or logistics company could hire
directly should be listed as a separate fleet in your Air Tool submission, The best
strategy is to have a clear idea of how to define your companies before filling out
¦>L
What Data Pol Need To Gather To Complete The Air Tool?
To participate in SmartWay, air freight carriers need to gather the following essential
information to complete the Air Tool:
•	The official company name EXACTLY as you would like it presented on the EPA website and
other EPA communications
•	Company contact information
•	Contact details for your Working Contact (see page 19 for definition)
•	Contact details for an Executive, Sustainability and/or Other Contact(s) (Executive cannot
be the same as the Working Contact) (see page 19 for definition)
•	Percent split between US/Canada operations
•	A comprehensive list of fleets, including fleet details, such as:
4 | P a g e

-------
o Fleet type (dedicated freight, mixed operations, or passenger)
o Service area (international, national, or regional)
o Revenue category
g Total number of aircraft
•	Data sources
•	SmartWay ID number (if this is not your first tool submission)
This data should be provided for all of your company's fleets. This data reflects the amount of
freight carried by each carrier, the distance that freight is carried, and the fuel consumed to carry
the freight.
What Software & Hardware Is Required For Completing The Air Tool?
The Air Tool was designed in "Microsoft Excel Forms." Completing the Air Tool requires the
following software and hardware:
•	A 2007 or later version of Microsoft Excel*
•	Excel security level set at Medium or lower
•	A PC running Windows XP or newer operating system (The Tool does not
currently work using the Mac operating system)
•	A minimum of 15 megabytes of free disk space. More disk space may be required
based on the number of companies you define in yourTool
•	A monitor resolution of at least 1,024 x 768
*The Excel web application in MS Office 365 (the cloud-based version of the Office operating system)
does not currently support the macros used in the SmartWay tools. Therefore, SmartWay tools do
not function in Office 365 at this time.
Please check with the user guides for your computer, online support, or your company's IT
department to make sure your system is set up to use the Air Tool.
HOW DO I SET THE SECURITY LEVEL WHEN OPENING SMARTWAY TOOLS?
When you first open the Tool you may see a new "Protected View" security warning from Microsoft:

What Is Included In The SmartWay Carrier Partnership Agreement?
To join the SmartWay Transport Partnership as an airfreight carrier, you must agree to the language
on the "Partnership Agreement for Carriers." When you begin working within the Tool, you will be
asked to check a box stating that you agree to the terms of the Partnership Agreement. This
agreement must be renewed annually.
Please review this language with the appropriate personnel within your organization before
completing or submitting a Tool to EPA.
Partnership Agreement
for Carriers
With this agreement, your company joins EPA's SmartWay Transport Partnership and commits to:
1.	Measure and report to EPA on an annual basis the environmental performance of your
fleet(s) using EPA's SmartWay Tool. (Existing fleets must report the 12 months of data for
the prior year ending December 31. Newly formed companies require a minimum of 3
months of operational data.)
2.	Have performance results and tool submittal status posted on the EPA
SmartWay website/database.
3.	Agree to submit supporting documentation to EPA for any data used to complete this Tool
and agree to EPA audit of this data upon request by EPA.
In return, EPA commits to:
1.	Promote company participation in the Partnership by posting Partner names on the EPA
SmartWay Website and in related educational, promotional, and media materials. EPA will
obtain express written consent from the Partner before using the Partner's name other than in
the context of increasing public awareness of its participation as described here.
2.	Provide companies with industry-wide performance benchmark data as this data becomes
available to EPA.
3.	Assist Partners in achieving emission and fuel usage reduction goals (subject to Federal
Government Appropriations).
4.	Treat individual corporate data as sensitive businessinformation.
General Terms
1.	If the Partner or EPA defaults upon this agreement at any point, the agreement shall be
considered null and void.
2.	Either party can terminate the agreement at any time without prior notification or penalties or
any further obligation.
3.	EPA agrees not to comment publicly regarding the withdrawal of specificpartners.
4.	EPA reserves the right to suspend or revoke Partner status for any Partner that fails to
accomplish the specific actions to which it committed in the SmartWay Transport Partnership
Agreement and subsequent annual Agreements.
5.	The Partner agrees that it will not claim or imply that its participation in the SmartWay
Transport Partnership constitutes EPA approval or endorsement of anything other than the
15 | P a g e

-------
Partner's commitment to the program. The Partner will not make statements or imply that EPA
endorses the purchase or sale of the Partner's products and services or the views ofthe
organization.
6. Submittal of this SmartWay Tool annually constitutes agreement to all terms in this
Partnership Agreement. No separate agreement need be submitted.
16 | P a g e

Step 1—Data Collection Requirements
This section will identify data needed for completing the required sections of the Air Tool. The Air
Tool Technical Documentation explains more about the methodological structure and technical
aspects of the Tool and the data entry process; this guide will focus primarily on the essentials for
completing the Tool.
Introductory Screens
Upon opening the 2018 Tool, you will see a Welcome screen, followed by five screens which orient
you to the Tool. The Assistance for New Users screen appears first, and allows users to view an
orientation video. Additional screens may be accessed from this screen, including Tool selection
guidance, data collection needs, Tool help and navigation, and the SmartWay Partner Tool
Schedule for 2018. These are general information screens and may be skipped if you are already
familiar with the Tool. However, upon proceeding you MUST select the box at the bottom of the
Partnership Agreement screen, indicating that you agree to the terms of the Partnership
Agreement.
US/Canada Operations Screen
The SmartWay Transport Partnership is administered in both the United States and Canada. The
Partnership operates the same way in both countries; however, data collection for Canadian
Partners is collected in metric units and there are French translations of all Tool screens and
guidance.
If your company operates in both the United States and Canada, you should ONLY SUBMIT ONE
TOOL. You may select either the US Tool or the Canadian Tool, and your Partnership participation
will be recognized in both countries. If unsure about which country to which you should submit, you
may contact either national SmartWay Program for assistance. Use the following program links:
United States: https://www.epa.gov/smartway
Canada: http://www.nrean.ge.ca/energy/efficiency/transportation/commereial~
vehicles/smartway/7615
To allow the United States and Canada to accurately determine the impacts of freight operations in
each country, the last introductory screen in the Air Tool asks you to indicate the approximate
percentage of your total air miles attributable to each country.
17 | P a g e

-------
The SmartWay Transport Partnership is now being administered in the United States and Canada. The Partnership operates the same in both
countries, allowing partners to submit one tool for all of their US-Canada operations. Partners will be recognized by both national programs and
will be listed on both the US and Canadian SmartWay websites. The US and Canadian SmartWay took produce the same output results, however
the Canadian tools use metric rather than English measurements and are available in French as well as English.
Partners should submit to the country where their headquarters is geographically located.
If unsure about which country to which you should submit, please contact either national SmartWay Program for assistance.
To allow the United States and Canada to determine country-specific impacts for internal tracking purposes, please answer the following question
about your freight operation. This answer is not used in any calculations regarding your score so therefore can be approximate.
Please indicate the approximate percentage of your overall operations in the United States and Canada. _?
Data Requirements For Establishing Your Data Collection Year
Before beginning your data collection, identify the last calendar year for which you have full annual
(12 months) data. This means that you have data from January of the calendar year through
December of the same year. If you have not been in operation for a full year, you must collect a
minimum of three months' data for input into the SmartWay Tool In your next update year, you will
be expected to submit a full year's data.
Data Requirements For Section 1: Specify Official Partner Name
Your Partner Name is the official name that your customers would recognize for your
company—in other words, the name someone hiring you would look for.
You must specify your company's official Partner Name under Section 1 of the HOME
screen, exactly as you want it to appear on the SmartWay website.
For example, you may enter:
•	ABC Company
•	ABC Company, Inc.
Your company will be listed exactly as you've entered in Section 1. Therefore, it is important to pay
special attention to proper capitalization, abbreviations, annotations, and punctuation.

-------
Data Requirements For Section 2: Enter Contact Information
The SmartWay Tool asks for:
•	General company information such as location, web address, phone number, etc.
•	A Working Contact2for any questions about your company's participation and Tool
submissions
•	An Executive Contact3for participation in awards and recognition events
•	A Sustainabilitv Contact (optional)4 for information on company sustainability programs and
outreach
•	Additional contacts (optional): Additional contacts may include anyone who is not the
Working, Executive, or Sustainability contact but may be involved with SmartWay (e.g.,
press/media contact, fleet manager,etc.).
Note that you MUST have at least two contacts listed in the contact information section of the Tool,
and the Working and Executive Contacts must be different, in order to proceed. SmartWay
recommends developing an internal succession plan to make sure that your Air Tool submission
schedule is maintained, in the event that a Working Contact is reassigned, or leaves the company for
any reason.
Data Requirements For Section 3: Characterize Your Fleets
The Air Tool tracks fleet-level operations. Most carriers will only need to create one fleet.
If you have multiple fleets that can be hired by customers individually, you should create multiple
fleet records in the Tool and characterize their operations individually. You should not include
internal company fleet definitions or designations—only separate fleets as they would be identified
and hired by your customers.
There are two screens in the Fleet Description(s) section of the Tool:
2	The Working Contact is the individual designated by the Executive Contact to directly interface with SmartWay
regarding specific tasks involved in the timely submission of the Tool. The Working Contact is responsible for
coordinating the assembly of information to complete/update company data; completing and updating the Tool
itself; maintaining direct communication with SmartWay; and keeping interested parties within the company
apprised of relevant developments with SmartWay.) NOTE: To ensure that emails from SmartWay/EPA are not
blocked, new Working Contacts may need to add SmartWay/EPA to their preferred list of trusted sources.)
3	The Executive Contact is the company executive who is responsible for agreeing to the requirements in the
SmartWay Partnership Agreement, overseeing the Working Contact (as appropriate), and ensuring the timely
submission of the Tool to SmartWay. The Executive Contact also represents the company at
awards/recognition events. This person should be a Vice President or higher-level representative for the
company.
4	The Sustainability Contact may be the same as the Working or Executive Contact, but not the same as any Other
Contacts.

where cargo shipments are less than 75 % and greater than 25 % of their business are considered
mixed service providers.
2.	Service Area: The Service Area allows you to differentiate between international services,
domestic services including national or regional service areas. If your fleet provides a mixture of
international and domestic services, select international.
3.	Revenue Category: The Revenue Categories allow for future comparisons of similar sized business
operations. For this data field, a fleet is considered large if its annual revenues are over $1 billion;
medium if its annual revenue is between $100 million and $1 billion; small if its annual revenue is
between $20 and $100 million; and micro if its annual revenue is less than $20 million.
4.	Total Number of Aircraft: For each fleet, identify the number aircraft.
Please use Worksheet #2 in Appendix A of this document to help you prepare your fleet characterization
information.

Once you are sure your information is input correctly, you may select the I
button at the bottom of the page. You will automatically be returned to the Home Screen.
Selecting A Fleet For Data Entry
1.	Using your mouse, on the Home screen select and highlight the name of the fleet for which you
wish to enter data.
2.	Double click the name; you will then be taken to the Aircraft Inventory data entry screen for that
fleet.
Completing The Aircraft Inventory Screen
Information entered on this screen and the next will allow the Air Tool to accurately calculate emissions
from your aircraft fleet by ensuring that the appropriate emission factors are applied.
First enter the number of aircraft in the "# of Aircraft" column to reflect the total number of aircraft for
the given set of aircraft/engine make and model characteristics. The total number of aircraft entered on
this screen must equal the total number specified for this fleet on the Fleet Details screen.
Keep in mind that you do not have to input a line for every single aircraft - only for every aircraft/engine
combination. So, for example, if you have 25 Boeing 747-400s with Pratt and Whitney PW 40621 turbo
fans, you may enter all the information for these 25 aircraft on one line.
After entering the number of aircraft for each row, select the appropriate aircraft make using the drop-
down menu. Upon selection, the available aircraft model and series options for that make will appear in
the next drop-down menu. Similarly, after specifying model and series, available engine makes and
models will appear in the next drop-down menu.
25 | P a g e

-------
The Air Tool includes over 3,000 possible aircraft/engine combinations. If you do not see your specific
aircraft/engine combination, please note this in the comment section (by selecting the Add Comments
button) and then select the aircraft/engine combination that most closely resembles yours.
The Air Tool will automatically populate the number of engines associated with an airframe as well as
approximations of the weight and volume capacities per aircraft where available. (If no value is
provided, use your best estimates). Weight capacity reflects total passenger, luggage, and cargo weight
Volume capacity reflects total interior volume, not just the cargo hold area. As airframe configurations
can vary significantly, you should revise the weight and volume capacity estimates with information on
your specific fleet.
For passenger aircraft, in your estimate be sure to include the weight and volume associated with
passengers, not just the cargo hold. For the weight capacity, use the FAA assumption of 220 pounds per
passenger (which includes the weight of the passenger and luggage), and an additional 110 pounds per
seat (or per passenger if the number of seats is unknown) to account for the weight of structures and
systems to accommodate the passengers.5 Note that you must then exclude luggage from the cargo
component so that it is not double counted.
Finally, enter the average engine load during cruise as a percent (between 0 and 100). If you do not
know the average cruising engine load a default value of 70% may be used.

Completing The Aircraft Operations Screen
On this screen enter annual amounts for all of the aircraft associated with each given
aircraft/engine combination defined in the Aircraft Characteristics tab. For example, if you
indicated that you have 25 identical aircraft on the Aircraft Characteristics tab, you will need to
enter annual amounts that represent the total for all 25 of these aircraft.
For each row, provide the requested operational information. If a row represents a group of
aircraft, rather than a single aircraft, the data must reflect the total annual activity for the entire
group, unless otherwise specified. For each row, you will be asked to provide the following:
•	Fuel Type - For each aircraft type, select the correct fuel type (Aviation Gasoline or Jet Fuel). Future
versions of the tool may include various grades of jet fuel as well as biojet and synthetic fuels.
•	Total Annual Fuel Usage - Provide the total annual fuel usage for all of the aircraft included in the
aircraft type for that row.
•	Fuel Units - Identify which units the fuel usage is supplied in (Tons or Gallons).
•	Total Annual Miles Traveled - Provide the total number of miles traveled by all the aircraft included in
the aircraft type for that row.
•	Total Annual Ton-Miles - Enter the total ton-miles transported during the reporting year for all
aircraft in the given make/model grouping. A ton-mile is one ton of freight moving one mile.
NOTE: DO NOT ESTIMATE TON-MILES BY SIMPLY MULTIPLYING TOTAL MILES BY TOTAL TON - this
calculation effectively assumes your entire tonnage is transported on EACH AND EVERY aircraft,
and will clearly overstate your ton-miles.
There are two ways to calculate your ton-miles:
1. Companies can determine their average payload per aircraft grouping, multiply the average
payload by the total miles per aircraft group, and sum the results for all flights for the reporting
year; or
(total mi per group x total tons per group)
Set Ton-miles per aircraft group = 	
total # of flights per group
To check your data, divide ton-miles by miles. The result is your group-average aircraft payload. If
this number is not reasonable, check your calculations.
Utilized Volume - Enter the AVERAGE volume PER AIRCRAFT (in cubic feet) occupied by freight
carried by this make/model grouping, for the reporting year.
Total Annual LTOs - Enter the total number of LTOs for this aircraft grouping for the reporting
year. One LTO cycle includes the approach, landing, taxi in, idling, taxi out, take off and climb-out.
Total Annual Hours of Operation - Enter the total annual hours of operation for this aircraft

grouping for the reporting year. This value includes the flight time as well as time spent idling and
taxiing to and from gates.
To proceed, select the Efficiency Utilization tab at the top, or simply select the	button
at the bottom of the screen.
Viewing the Efficiency Utilization Screen
The Efficiency Utilization screen displays a summary of the average payload and volume utilization for
each of your aircraft types. The calculated weight and volume utilization values should be less than
100%. If any payload or volume information was left blank, "N/A" will appear for that entry. If the
calculated values do not look reasonable please revise the entries on the Aircraft Inventory and Aircraft
Operations screens, then return to this screen to view the revised utilization estimates.

Completing The Data Source description Screen
Provide a detailed description of the data sources for the fleet inventory and operational data entered
on the previous screens. Some of the aircraft characteristics and operation data should be readily
available from Partner records such as the number of aircraft, fuel usage, kilometres traveled,
utilization rates, and operations. Aircraft make/model and engine manufacture/model is provided by
the aircraft supplier (leasing company if the aircraft is being leased, or manufacturer if participant owns
the aircraft). The aircraft supplier can also be helpful providing data on the payload volume and
capacity of the aircraft. Alternatively, payload capacity can also be obtained from the Department of
Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) T-100 dataset. The T-100 dataset is also a
data source for LTO data. Note the T-100 data are provided to the FAA by the air carriers. An aircraft's
flight plans can also be a data source for hours of operation and LTOs.
