border pre-clearance coordination Quintuple

Bidirectional?: True

border pre-clearance coordination (A-Interconnect): This CVRIA application interconnect encapsulates all of the Layer 2 information flows between the 'Border Inspection Administration' application object and the 'Intermodal Customer System' physical object. This application interconnect is bi-directional since the underlying layer 2 information flows carry data in both directions.

Border Inspection Administration Center (Source Physical Object): 'Border Inspection Administration Center' represents back-office systems and databases run by domestic and foreign governmental agencies responsible for the regulation of trade, and the enforcement of customs and immigration laws. These agencies include U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its counterparts in Canada and Mexico. DHS includes components like Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and Transportation Security Administration (TSA). Other agencies include secondary trade agencies (e.g., U.S. Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Department of Agriculture, other USDOT departments, etc.), and agencies from other trading nations. The systems they manage coordinate activities related to the border crossings. These systems support import/export cargo processing and enforcement operations at the border, including programs such as FAST, Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), Nexus (Canada), SENTRI (Mexico), and US-VISIT.

Border Inspection Administration (Source Application Object): "Border Inspection Administration" performs administrative functions relating to the inspection of goods and vehicles at the border.

Intermodal Customer System (Destination Physical Object): The 'Intermodal Customer System' represents organizations that engage in the shipment of freight, either originator (consigner or shipper) or recipient of the cargo shipment. They enable the movement of goods on routes that require the use of other modes of transportation such as heavy rail, air, sea, etc. The Intermodal Customer System includes those personnel responsible for the movement of freight across international borders.
