The Impact of the Top 3 Strategic Imperatives on the US Customs and Border Protection Industry

Geopolitical Chaos

Why

The United States receives a high volume of migrants annually, a trend expected to increase amidst escalating regional and global political and economic instabilities. The anticipated surge will place significant pressure on existing infrastructures and facilities, challenging operational efficiency.

The Publisher's Perspective

Ongoing and planned investments in intelligence and surveillance technologies will focus on maximizing interoperability to streamline information sharing.

Procurement activities will encompass secure communication networks and biometric identification tools to enhance real-time situational awareness.

Disruptive Technologies

Why

The US Customs and Border Protection is investing in cutting-edge technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), to improve data collection, processing and analysis, threat identification and reduction, and domain awareness.

The Publisher's Perspective

The adoption of AI and ML-based tools will optimize resource allocation, enhance border security, and support faster, more secure processing of travelers and cargo.

Moving forward, data analytics and predictive risk assessment models will take center stage in the agency's operations.

Industry Convergence

Why

To address the operational challenges created by the rising volume of passengers and cargo, the agency is prioritizing strategic public-private partnerships through the Reimbursable Services Program and the Donations Acceptance Program.

The Publisher's Perspective

Collaborative public-private programs will focus on infrastructure improvements, developing and integrating non-intrusive inspection technologies, mobile biometric and inspection solutions, and adopting best practices in supply chain resilience and security.

Growth Drivers

The Customs and Border Protection agency oversees the screening of passengers and cargo at more than 300 ports of entry across the United States. With the rise of eCommerce, globalization, and digitalization, the volume of passengers and cargo is expected to grow substantially, making it imperative for the agency to improve data management and analytical tools to reduce passenger waiting time and cargo backlogs.

The rise of fentanyl and other synthetic drugs, such as methamphetamine and heroin, is exacerbating the drug epidemic across the United States. In response, the Customs and Border Protection Agency plans to increasingly automate intelligence collection and reporting, develop AI- and ML-based deep learning algorithms, and procure large-scale imaging systems and handheld/portable mass spectrometry.

Procurement activities to enhance border security and threat assessment will encompass deploying unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), incorporating multi-role aircraft featuring multi-sensor systems, and modernizing existing air and maritime fleets with advanced sensors, operating systems, and communication networks.

Growth Restraints

Strict regulatory standards, encompassing federal guidelines and rigorous cybersecurity requirements, impose significant barriers for new entrants in the industry. The demand for advanced technologies, such as AI, ML, facial and biometric identification, and non-intrusive inspection solutions, necessitates considerable investment in RDT&E. While high capital commitment is essential to remaining competitive, it also poses a deterrent for potential participants.

The planned integration of advanced technologies and frequent upgrades to new tools require specific technical expertise and regular and intensive workforce training to optimize system performance. These requirements can be cost-intensive and create potential skill gaps among agents, impacting operational efficiency.

Government leadership and administration changes could prompt policy shifts on immigration, border security, and trade, affecting the agency's objectives and priorities. Furthermore, budgetary constraints could hinder technology integration and infrastructure maintenance, impacting operational efficiency and responsiveness.
