Customs and Supply chain

The increasing threat of international terrorism and organised cross-border crime requires the enhancement of existing border and frontier controls and effective national and international co-operation between Customs, other law enforcement agencies and business. The greatest challenge for Customs will be to offer facilitated treatment of the vast majority of international cargo movements and passenger traffic, while identifying and dealing with the small percentage that pose a genuine risk to security. (Customs Guidelines on Integrated Supply Chain Management, WCO, 2004)

Il Trovatore Project: overall Tracking and Tracing

Boost the competitiveness of the national logistics system:

immaterial infrastructures in order to have a logistics platform virtually

extended to the entire national territory

extend the network of controls beyond the EU borders to promote the

development of new trade routes

identification of innovative solutions based on RFId (Radio-Frequency

Identification) technologies

seal containers, remotely check the goods unloaded up to their transfer to

the dry-port, and better define the reference organization model.

In August 2008 a cooperation agreement was signed with the Institute for the protection and the

security of citizens within the Joint Research Center of the EU Commission. The agreement aims at

identifying new solutions to trace and track down goods.

The agreement will be renewed and is needed to have a “European certification” of the tested

solutions.


Il Trovatore Project: full traceability

In March 2009 an agreement was signed with UIRNeT S.p.A to

develop a computer network for the control and monitoring of

goods during the process of "import - destination - unloading -

loading - export“

Designing and innovating by exploiting the opportunities of

electronic customs:

immaterial structures set up a virtual and larger logistic

platform;

extend the control network beyond the EU (Tianjin-Genoa

Agreement)

MONITORING DOCUMENTS + PHYSICAL LOCALIZATION


Anchorage Port

Temporay storage can be “declared” before the actual unloading

Customs endorse the manifest of inbound goods

Customs Know the destination of a container before it is unloaded

Port Goods are immediately addressed to controls cleared, sent to terminals or…

The trader can send the customs declaration

Dry-port Addressed to the dry-port

Temporary Storage, Dry Port, Pre-Clearing


T0 - the ship leaves the last port before the arrival

T1 – the ship enters into territorial waters or other point of reference that could be monitored.

Legal and technical feasibility in progress.

Coast Guard notifies the acquisition of the monitoring of the ship with their systems

Customs allow to validate the cargo manifest

Coast Guard notifies the anchorage

New scenarios for pre-clearing: interoperability with the Coast Guard

The operator validates the cargo manifest and is able to lodge the cargo declaration

T2 - Anchorage

Cargo Manifest is NOT validated

Customs know the destination of a container before it is unloaded

T3 - Mooring

Coast Guard Italian Customs Economic Operator

Coast Guard notifies the mooring Goods are immediately unloaded and are addressed to controls, cleared or sent to terminals


A Holistic Approach: Re-Use of Port Infrastructures and Integration with Port Community System (PCS) Port Gate

Container boarding

Terminal

The truck or container is subject to a security control by: manual control cameras RFId readers

Automatic storage of information related to: the vehicle (licence plate reading) Customs status

Port Gate

Customs

Automatic verification of: customs formalities Documents’ eligibility

Customs Area

UIRNet

Customs duty

Address in real time the container to boarding, to the terminal or to the customs formality area

SCANNER OPERATORS

Images captured by

scanners are transmitted to

the control centre (called

MATRIX) to feed a database

of images, used to refine

and facilitate the analysis of

the following scans.

• Use of the set of good practices described in PMBOK • Identification of critical areas and intervention priorities • Measurement of time and costs • Definition of accurate risk plan • Experimentation and monitoring of simplification • Evaluation, i.e. quantification of economic savings for economic operator • Creation of a combined technical group involving Italian Customs, Public Administrations, economic operators.
