ACE and ISF 10+2: Staying Ahead of the Curve

23 May 2008

Two initiatives from CBP that will continue to have a significant impact on the trade community are the roll out of the Automated Commercial Environment or ACE and the proposed Importer Security Filing (ISF) and Additional Carrier Requirements or “10+2” rule.  Kewill customers can rest assured that Kewill software solutions will help manage the requirements of these initiatives to ensure compliance with CBP.

Celeste Catano, Principal Business Analyst at Kewill, recorded a webcast to review the current status of ACE development, its deployment schedule from CBP, and how it will impact the way trade partners conduct business with CBP.  In addition Celeste provides an overview of the pending ISF 10+2 initiative and how Kewill’s product offerings are expected to manage it.

Ken Halle, Chief Strategy Officer at Kewill, has published a white paper 'Customs Brokers at the Helm of 10+2' that focuses on the opportunities and challenges that need to be addressed with the pending ISF initiative.
