Absent Basic Good Advanced Leading Edge
1. Import Export Processes
Stand alone manual processes Streamlined integrated processes
Streamlined integrated web enabled processes
Streamlined integrated web enabled real time processes
2. Trade Documentation
Stand alone documents for different agencies
Minimize number of documents
Shared documents between related agencies
Single Administrative Document Shared across regulatory agencies within one jurisdiction
Shared Single Administrative Document across trading partners
3. Capacity Building
Stand alone programmes across multiple agencies
Single development agency Stand alone programmes
Single development agency Integrated programmes
Single agency Client Directed Integrated programmes
4. Integration of Regulatory Bodies
Multiple independent regulatory agencies
Minimize number of agencies based on functional areas
Single Regulatory agency operating multiple processes
