Model Interoperability Agreement (MIA) Companion to MIA
©2013 EESPA AISBL 11
The objective for MIA was to move operators from customized agreements into a standardized set of terms and solutions
Legal frameworks of the different European countries have been combined as one accepted practice to create a model agreement
MIA provides the recommendations for technical standards and commercial terms Deviations from these is possible based on mutual agreement
only Eases the negotiations phase between operators and
accelerates the practical implementation
MIA Goals
©2013 EESPA AISBL 12
MIA agreement contains all relevant information and definitions necessary for the operator businesses
Applicable law does not favor either party. Belgian law was selected due to being considered the most neutral one
Streamlines, accelerates and negotiation and technical implementation
Predefined liabilities and SLAs define the criteria for being an EESPA operator and ensure the service levels
MIA: Concrete benefits for the members
