Advance Interdepartmental Reporting Initiative: Vision
Eliminate paper based reporting.
Provide flexible solution to meet OGD needs.
Harmonize and consolidate CBSA and OGD information requirements and collect once, electronically, from trade chain participants.
Streamline the collection and sharing of cargo conveyance and crew data resulting in strengthened border security.

Advance Interdepartmental Reporting Initiative: Vision
OGD Single Window:
Wherever possible, offer 7/24 service for OGD release requests.
Support CBSA’s promise to implement full electronic reporting of cargo and conveyance data.
Allow automated risk assessment of goods prior to their arrival in Canada.
IMCI:
Provide a national marine vessel and crew targeting system.
Address gaps in marine security for CBSA and OGDs.
Streamline the collection and sharing of conveyance and crew data resulting in strengthened border security.

CBSA: Current State
CBSA currently processes approximately 80% of commercial reporting by electronic means.
30% of the 12 million import release transactions processed annually have one or more OGD requirements.
CBSA collects approximately 80% of the data required by participating OGD programs.

Advance Interdepartmental Reporting Initiative:Business Transformation
First Generation:
Paper forms were simply changed to electronic forms.
There was no analysis on how the information was used.
Modifications to transmission protocol and format were not communicated appropriately.
The format was fairly complex to decipher.

Advance Interdepartmental Reporting Initiative:Transport Canada - Road Safety
Issues
Forms for vehicle imports are paper based and usually completed at the border with the aid of the BSO.
Forms are faxed post release and can be difficult to read.
It is costly to retrieve and export vehicles that should not have been admitted to the country.
Solutions
Provide the trader with the ability to supply the required information electronically in advance of arrival at the border.
With advance information, Transport Canada will be proactive.

Issues
Received information is out out of date and inadequate.
Received information can be misleading when goods are released inland.
Solutions
Streamline interaction between CBSA and Transport Canada.
Put information in context with the process, and accurate and timely information will be provided.
