As the import-export industry prepares for the coming Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) being set up by the end of this year by U.S. Customs and Border Protection as the new \u201csingle window\u201d through which international trade will be processed, DHL Global Forwarding (DHL-GF) has introduced its new U.S. Customs brokerage management system, in conjunction with software firm, Kewill.
\nDHL-GF, the freight forwarding arm of Deutsche Post DHL Group, said the new rollout is one of the first IT systems to be \u201cACE-certified\u201d by U.S. Customs, and will be fully integrated with DHL\u2019s Document Management System and Inland Transportation Management System, and will also be connected seamlessly with DHL-GF\u2019s Unified Reporting System, which will be expected to start by the fourth quarter of 2016.
\nJim Miller, senior director for customs brokerage in the U.S. for DHL-GF, said the new customs system will help speed up customs filing for DHL\u2019s customers in the United States by way of Kewill\u2019s \u201cgraphical user interface\u201d and faster data interchange that will increase productivity. \u00a0\u201cWe have been using the system on a trial basis since May 2015,\u201d he said, \u201cand currently file close to 100 percent of the ACE entry summaries allowed at this time with minimal to no issues.\u201d
\nTo protect the security of DHL-GF\u2019s information, all critical data will be hosted in DHL\u2019s secure data center. \u201cWe understand DHL\u2019s need to have an internal system to manage connectivity to all customs authorities while meeting all new requirements under ACE,\u201d said Jim Hoefflin, president and COO for Kewill.
\nThe Kewill system comes pre-programmed with information on the Lacey Act wildlife trafficking law and will be able to interface with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency and other participating government agencies.
\nSoftware firm Kewill said it has provided IT systems to 7,500 companies in more than 100 countries.
