- Business and design/supply chain issuesOYSTER BAY, NY - Anti-terrorism efforts may give electronics a boost as U.S. Customs aim to speed processing of incoming shipments. That could give RFID an edge in the battle for the electronic container tracking market.
Customs recently gave indications it will grant shippers meeting security guidelines expedited processing at U.S. ports. According to a new study by research firm ABI Research, continuing government programs will be the main impetus for electronic container tracking.
CBP is taking C-TPAT a step further by adding another tier of security, dubbed "C-TPAT Plus." This new program offers shippers immediate turnaround with no inspection upon arrival, in exchange for implementing more stringent requirements. These new requirements include technologies that can monitor tampering from the point of origin and provide inspectors with a record of events.
