Supply Chain Security Since 9/11
Agenda
Introduction
Supply Chain Security Since 9/11
Pre-9/11 View
Post-9/11 Actions
Where To Next – National Strategy and beyond
History – Pre-9/11 View
Supply Chain Security a Smuggling IssueDealt with primarily at the POEsLimited Industry Partnership Programs
Business Alliance for Secure Commerce (BASC) – Private Sector LedCarrier Initiative Program / Land Border CIPAmericas Counter Smuggling Initiative
Limited International Cooperation – WCO, Bilateral
Concern About Pilferage, Internal ConspiraciesInteragency Commission on Crime and Security at U.S. Seaports –Report (2000)
Terrorism – Primarily an Air Cargo IssueLockerbie – Pan Am 103 (bomb in luggage)
History –Post-9/11
Immediate Aftermath – Ramped Up Border SecurityLevel One Alert – Wait Times at the BordersSeeds of C-TPAT / FAST
Concern About Containers and WMD – “Nuke In Box”Not Just Smuggling – “DoA” Concern if Seaport City is Target
Enduring Air Cargo ConcernPassenger PlanesAir Cargo
Key Elements of Post-9/11 Strategy
Staffing Increases – More Security, More Facilitation
Development of Risk Targeting Capabilities and Information Collection
Cooperation with the Private Sector – C-TPAT, FAST, Air Cargo Security
International CollaborationBilateral – North America, CSI, Megaports, TSA Air Cargo Mutual Recognition effortsMultilateral – SAFE, ISPS, ICAO
Technology DeploymentsImaging Equipment (NII)Radiation Detection Equipment
Port Security MeasuresCoast Guard Efforts / Area Maritime Security CommitteesPort Security GrantsMTSA -- TWIC
Congressional Involvement
Trade Act of 2002Authorizes collection of advance information – all modes
Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002 (MTSA)TWICISPS
SAFE Port Act of 2006Authorizes C-TPAT, CSI, among other things
Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007 (9/11 Act)100% Scanning – Maritime Containers100% “Screening” – Air Cargo on passenger planes
9/11 Act – Scanning
Maritime ContainersBy 2012, all maritime containers must be “scanned” at foreign port, pre-loading – or else banned from US
Scanning = NII and Radiation Detection
Escape Hatch – DHS can extend deadline for 2 years every 2 years
Air Cargo on Passenger PlanesSection 1602 – 100% “screening” of cargo transported on passenger aircraft
“Screening” = NII, trace detection, physical exam or canine
Administration Response to 9/11 Act
Enormous Objection from Trade and International Community
DHS extended deadline to 2014
DHS not moving to implement – and consistent message has been that 100% scanning requirement not advisable or feasible
TSA moving to implement 100% screening requirement for air cargo on passenger planesDomestic – Already implementedInternational – Work in progress, with intent to implement this year
National Strategy for Global Supply Chain Security
Forthcoming this year
Fundamental Principles of Strategy:Risk Management
Collaboration with Private Sector and International Partners
Security and Prosperity – Equally Important Values
Goal of National Strategy: ‘Secure and efficient global supply chain system that is resilient against catastrophic disruptions’
National Strategy for Global Supply Chain Security
Risk Management – Three Elements:Deter malicious actors from using system – layers of securityProtect systemically critical infrastructureStrengthen resilience of the system
Improving the System – Three Elements:Streamline and reform government security processesDevelop new technologies to improve security and facilitate tradeExpand, develop, and modernize infrastructure – to meet needs of security, efficient commerce, and resilience as trade flows increase
Priority Actions: 1 of 4
Strengthening security and facilitating flow of maritime cargo. Core Strategy – Risk-based, layered approach with six key elements:
1. Threat and risk assessments
2. Risk targeting, information analysis, and sharing
3. Partnerships with industry and governments
4. Promotion of global best practices and standards
5. Inspection/screening personnel and technology deployments – both overseas and in the U.S.
6. Port infrastructure security and worker credentialing
GOAL
APPROACH
PRIORITIES
Priority Actions: 2 of 4
Strengthening security and facilitating flow of air cargo. Key elements:
1. Implement 9/11 Act – by 12/31/11, all air cargo on US-bound passenger planes screened pre-departure
2. Partnerships with industry on improving supply chain security and developing global “trusted shipper” arrangements
3. International partnerships and efforts to strengthen global standards and practices
4. Strengthen risk targeting of in-bound air cargo – including working with industry and international partners to consider promulgation of rule requiring pre-departure information on all in-bound air cargo shipments
GOAL
APPROACH
PRIORITIES
Priority Actions: 3 of 4
Strengthening security and facilitating flow of cargo within North America. Strategy builds from Obama-Harper and Obama-Calderon Declarations:
Canada:1. Develop integrated US-Canada cargo security strategy
2. Harmonize C-TPAT and PIP, expand FAST
3. Modernize border infrastructure, and improve joint border facilities management
4. Strengthen rail security
Mexico:1. Improve bi-national collaboration on cargo security
2. Develop protocols for secure lanes for pre-cleared truck/rail shipments
3. Implement 21st Century Border Declaration, and develop more efficient and secure border management process
GOAL
APPROACH
PRIORITIES
Priority Actions: 4 of 4
Expanding, developing, and modernizing global supply chain and border infrastructure upon which the system depends.Incorporate flexibility and redundancy by building on Administration efforts to combine public and private funding of large-scale infrastructure improvements: ID opportunities to enhance current land border infrastructure
Incorporating best practices for resilience into plans
Assess and remediate systemic risks from loss of operations at key critical nodes
GOAL
APPROACH
PRIORITIES
Implementation of National Strategy
2011New Threat and Risk Assessments for Supply Chain Security
Discussions with Stakeholders – Industry and International Partners
Technology Assessment
Implement Near-Term Priorities
2012National Action Plan developed
Issues Over the Horizon
Extreme Budgetary PressuresCSI Cuts – Complicating effort to develop alternative to 100% scanningEvolution of CSI – New Staffing Models
International Collaboration / Mutual RecognitionAEO programs – Mutual Recognition (New Zealand most recent)China issues and recent agreement
Joint validation efforts and mutual recognition for AEO/C-TPAT
WCO EffortsAir Cargo Security – Post Yemen (both WCO and ICAO)Maritime Cargo – Napolitano trip to WCO meeting in June
DHS partnership with WCO – essentially following key elements of National Strategy for Global Supply Chain Security
Reauthorization of SAFE Port Act This Year?Potential vehicle for amending 9/11 Act “100% scanning” requirement
