2. 2 SAFE PORT ACT 2006 (Excerpt) C-TPAT is a voluntary program that enables CBP to partner with private companies to review their supply chains and improve the security of their shipments to the United States
C-TPAT members receive facilitation benefits that result in the likelihood of reduced scrutiny of their shipments, such as a reduced number of inspections or shorter wait times for their shipments.
In October 2006, the SAFE Port Act formalized C-TPAT into law.

5. 5 The C-TPAT Approach Voluntary Partnership - cooperatively developed minimum security criteria
Provides for the customized application of guidelines by members
Provides tangible benefits
Trust but verify information Discuss Program Approaches:
Voluntary - As previously stated, the C-TPAT program is a voluntary partnership w/ jointly developed security guidelines. Because of the scale and mission of C-TPAT, (supply chains, anti terrorism and national security), this approach was deemed to be more effective than creating mandatory requirements, that are sometimes necessary in certain situations, but always effective.
Customized application of guidelines by members and/or colleagues - more times than not , positive validation results in companies not only meeting expectations but in many cases exceeding the minimum standard.
Clear Benefits - C-TPAT certified companies are eligible for benefits to include a reduced number of examinations.
Trust But Verify Information - This approach adopts the requirement for conducting the supply chain security validations on C-TPAT companies by verifying information submitted in the companies security profile.

6. 6 C-TPAT Objectives Emphasize prevention vs. interdiction
Promote shared responsibility
Promote security awareness
Increase supply chain security and supply chain efficiency
C-TPAT allows Customs to use it’s long interdiction and enforcement experience and knowledge and expand upon those qualities with C-TPAT objectives such as:
Prevention: the mission and goal to help identify a “security compromise” as early as possible (ie: CSI, Supply Chain Validations) vs. traditional interdiction, in which CBP is looking for the threats after arrival, which is not an ideal situation because the WMD may be already here.
Shared Responsibility : program invites participation of all trade sectors and create opportunities for companies to become proactive in their supply chain procedures (ie:training employees about container security, having reporting mechanisms in place at their owned or vendor facilities for reporting anomalies)
Security awareness: opportunity of having employees understand how smuggling, theft, organized crime networks work - they will help identify them
Security and efficiency: efficient supply chain is a more secure supply chain environment, which helps overall in conveying your legitimacy and commitment amongst the international trade community.

7. 7 Instructor Notes:
Explain what an SCSS’s job function is. We work for CBP, not the company.
The position was established in 2003 with only 20 SCSSs. Today, six years later there are close to 200 SCSSs.
At this point, refrain from making the presentation about recruitment (ex. positions opening up, good/bad about the job, countries you have visited). Just state the facts and move on.
Emphasis that there is extensive travel with the position and the countries that are visited are considered to be high risk. A good example to emphasis this point is to bring up the 2009 terrorist attacks in Jakarta, Indonesia. Two SCSS were inside the Marriott hotel when the bombs went off.
This slide has to be updated before each presentation.

9. 9 What is a Validation? The validation process is a joint review of the supply chain based on the security profile submitted and a documented risk assessment.
Each validation is customized according to the partner.
An open forum to discuss issues, share ideas, address vulnerabilities, and develop solutions.
Understand the role of CBP and the Trade Community in the war against terrorism.
Trust but verify system (reliable, accurate, and effective).
Instructor Notes:
A C-TPAT validation is a process through which CBP/ C-TPAT SCSSs meets with company representatives and visit selected domestic and foreign sites to verify supply chain security measures are accurate and are being followed. The security measures that are being verified for accuracy are contained in the C-TPAT participant’s security profile.
The principal goal of a validation for CBP is:
To ensure that the company’s C-TPAT security profile is reliable, accurate, and effective.
Validations also provide a forum through which CBP and a C-TPAT participant can build a stronger partnership by discussing supply chain security issues, sharing “best practices,” and cooperatively developing solutions to address potential vulnerabilities.
The face-to-face nature of a validation encourages both CBP and the C-TPAT participant to better understand the role each plays in securing our borders against international terrorismInstructor Notes:

15. 15 CBSA Trusted Traders Programs The CBSA has three complimentary Trusted Traders programs that provide facilitative benefits to low-risk businesses who partner with us in security and compliance
Partners in Protection (supply chain security)
Customs Self Assessment (books & records)
Partners in Compliance (compliance)
Each has a different focus but together they represent a comprehensive strategy that allows the CBSA to focus on higher and unknown risk shipments
16. 16 Partners in Protection (PIP) The PIP program enlists the cooperation of companies directly involved in cross-border trade in an effort to secure the supply chain.
Aligns with the Framework of Standards to Secure and Facilitate Global Trade (SAFE) of the World Customs Organization (WCO).
Enables Canada to enter into Mutual Recognition Arrangements (MRA) with similar programs in other countries.
The approval process involves the CBSA:
Reviewing the company’s Security Profile
Performing a risk assessment;
Conducting a site validation
17. 17 Customs Self Assessment (CSA) CSA simplifies many import requirements so that low-risk shipments can be processed more quickly and efficiently at the border
Streamlined accounting, payment and adjustment processes for all imported goods.
Joint Canada-US initiative that enhances border and trade chain security and allows for expedited movement through dedicated lanes/booths.
Applicants to the CSA program undergo a two-part application process:
Part 1 ? a risk assessment to demonstrate compliance history
Part 2 ? an assessment of their business processes and books/records to ensure linkages, controls and audit trails support CSA requirements
18. 18 Partners in Compliance (PIC)
Business-to-government partnership that allows importers to self-audit their own books and records for trade compliance, in particular origin, classification, and valuation
Pilot was launched in 2004 to build upon the CSA program
Members are removed from CBSA post-release verification activities
Future plan is to incorporate under CSA as a benefit
