CBP Mission OverviewCBP Mission Overview

A typical day for CBP at the ports of entry includes:

Executing73 arrests of criminals at the ports

ProcessingOver 1 million passengers and pedestrians, including 653,000 aliens; 70,000 truck, rail, and sea containers; 331,000 incoming, privately owned vehicles

SeizingOver 7,500 pounds of narcotics; over $295K in undeclared or illicit currency; and 4,125 prohibited meat, plant materials or animal products including 435 agricultural pests at ports of entry

• CBP officers at the land ports serve as the frontline in defending the American public against terrorists and instruments of terror while facilitating the lawful movement of goods and people across the border

• Modernized land ports of entry enable CBP to:

Strike the proper balance between facilitation and security Maximize the safety and effectiveness of CBP Officer’s executing the mission Enhance site and building configuration to meet growing trade and travel Provide adaptive infrastructure to handle evolving inspection technologies

Tenets of CBP’s Infrastructure Enhancement EffortsTenets of CBP’s Infrastructure Enhancement Efforts

I. Stewards of Government Resources:- Acquiring additional modernization funding- Maximizing application efficiency

II. Accelerating LPOE project delivery timeline

III. Improving the performance and quality of products

While Tenets II and III are integral to a successful modernization effort they cannot be fully realized without the necessary increase in resources (or efficient application of reasonably expected resources)

Tenets of CBP’s Infrastructure Enhancement Efforts Increase ResourcesTenets of CBP’s Infrastructure Enhancement Efforts Increase Resources

• CBP identified a $6 billion need to address modernization requirements across the LPOE portfolio within 10 years and requested a commensurate increase in federal appropriations.

• Our efforts led to an infusion of $720M in funds received under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA):

$420M for CBP-owned ports, $300M for GSA-owned, to be obligated by end of FY2010.

• Still, the average annual appropriation for LPOEs has been in the neighborhood of $150M.

• Given these realities, CBP has to consider low-cost, high-impact project funding solutions to meet operational requirements, e.g.:

Inspection Lane Enhancements

Interior Renovation and Reconfiguration

• Given limited resources, it is critical that CBP apply available funding to the areas of greatest need, using a deliberative prioritization process to rank projects.

• Given limited resources, it is critical that CBP apply available funding to the areas of greatest need, using a deliberative prioritization process to rank projects.

• CBP uses a five-step process during prioritization:

1. Gather baseline data using the Strategic Resource Assessments (163 LPOEs) to gain an understanding of workload impacts and facility requirements.

2. Rank the LPOEs by identified needs using over 60 unique identifiers falling under the above four set criteria.

3. Conduct a sensitivity analysis on the initial ranking of needs.4. Assess project feasibility and risk.5. Establish an executable investment plan.

Strategic Resource Assessments Quick OverviewStrategic Resource Assessments Quick Overview

• Identify and prioritize facility requirements: Document CBP facility needs in

a consistent manner.

Align facility investments with CBP’s mission.

Justify resource requests within CBP, DHS, and Congress.

Target available resources to the areas of greatest need.

Plan, budget, and execute facility investments objectively and fairly.

First Round of SRAs:• Completed for 163 LPOE facilities between

2004 and 2006.

• Formed basis of CBP’s initial $6 billion LPOE Modernization Strategy.

Second Round of SRAs:• Conducted over the next three years. • Builds upon SRA methodology and

prioritization capabilities.

• Improves & expands the process to include air, sea, and land ports of entry.

• Provides national prioritized database of capital project needs based on objective, defensible port criteria.

• Focuses on actionable, cost-effective facility recommendations to meet current and future capacity needs and operational requirements of CBP.
