  3. BACKGROUND

  4. Background (from customs….) • In 2001 the Minister of finance and the Minister of Commerce agreed to transfer ORBUS management to Customs. The Minister of Finances was personally involved and gives instructions to customs to restart the project. • In 2002, Customs, through a management committee (CGPID), creates a private company to develop and deploy the ORBUS system. • From 2002 to 2004, The company has updated the system, designed the services built the organization, and developed the management tools. • In 2004 the pilot of ORBUS was launched in January. With a scalable approach, the system was officially operational since July 1st. There was no legal reforms. A simple letter from the MOF to his colleagues and a simple information notice from the Customs Director General were enough to support the SW implementation.

  13. Key factors of success • Single windows system is a combination of Technologies, business organization and human factors. • High level government support is necessary, customs involvement as well. • Map the reality before reengineering • Skills and leadership ability of the appointed person to manage the project are critical. • Users training is a critical aspects • PPP is probably the best context to set up SW

  14. To Avoid • Decide for others • Ignore stakeholders interest in the project. • Thinking just from on perspective (Gov, or private sector or users). • Have a complex view of issues • Ignore human factor in the change process.

  15. To manage subtly • Leadership in the project (Trade, Transport or Customs?) • PPP implementation body • PPP operation body.

  16. Communication strategy: • SET THE CREDIBILITY OF THE PROJECT INVOLVING THE CHAMPIONS OF THE PROJECT (high government position, customs, private sector) IN THE PUBLIC EVENT In Senegal the credibility of the project was set because the Head of State has announced it as his project in his new year speech and has instructed his Minister of Commerce to do the necessary.

  17. Communication strategy: • BRING ON BOARD THE PUBLIC STAKEHOLDERS (OPERATION LEVEL AND DECISION MAKERS LEVEL) FOR THEM TO BE SUPPORTERS OF THE PROJECT. • CONVINCE PRIVATE STAKEHOLDERS BY SHOWING THEM THAT THEY WILL SAVE COSTS IN OPERATION AND WILL HAVE POSSIBILITY TO EXPLORE NEW MARKET OPPORTUNITY.

  18. Communication strategy: • EXPLAIN, EXPLAIN, EXPLAIN TO CUSTOMS BROOKERS THAT THE PROJECT IS NOT ABOUT TO TAKE THEIR BUSINESS. • EXPLAIN, EXPLAIN, EXPLAIN TO TRADERS THAT THE PROJECT IN NOT ABOUT TO ADD A LINE OF CHARGE IN THE BILL OF IMPORT/EXPORT PROCEDURE. In Senegal, private sector was not supporting the project as expected because there was not enough confidence between the management team of the project and them.

  19. GO TO OPERATION: • TO ASSURE QUALITY OF SERVICE: • pilot phase and gradual coverage of services. • large public communication • contract of performance between the project and the public stakeholders. • set up of facilitation centers for SMEs • development of management tools to monitor the processes. • TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF SERVICE: • Monthly report • Performance comparisons • regular meeting to adjust process
