Rapiscan Systems | AS&E

Membre de la famille des sociétés de sécurité OSI Systems, Rapiscan Systems | AS&E est un des leaders du marché de l’inspection par radiographie et des technologies de radiodétection. L’entreprise jouit de 50 années d’expérience et a vendu plus de 2000 systèmes d’inspection du fret et de contrôle des véhicules dans plus de 100 pays. Notre mission consiste à aider les services portuaires, frontaliers, militaires, les installations à haut risque et les postes de contrôle avec lesquels nous commerçons, partout dans le monde, à lutter contre la fraude commerciale, le terrorisme, le trafic de stupéfiants et l’immigration clandestine. 

Nous proposons une large gamme de systèmes de scanographie qui font appel aux technologies de radiographie à basse, moyenne et haute énergie (ou des technologies de radiographie multiples) et à des technologies de radiodétection, afin de répondre aux exigences particulières qu’ont nos clients par rapport à leurs applications de sécurité. Notre technologie de transmission radiographique à haute énergie affiche une meilleure capacité de pénétration des cargaisons denses dans lesquelles pourraient se trouver des marchandises à risque ou des produits de contrebande, grâce à des images colorisées qui font la distinction entre matières organiques et métalliques et facilitent, par conséquent, le travail d’analyse des opérateurs. Notre technologie exclusive à basse énergie Z Backscatter® produit des images comparables à des photographies, permet de mettre en lumière des menaces organiques et révèle la présence de produits de contrebande de type explosifs, armes en plastique et stupéfiants.

Nous nous engageons au profit de l’excellence dans nos performances, d’une conception innovante et d’une qualité irréprochable. Nous sommes déterminés à offrir en permanence des produits d’imagerie extrêmement fiables et à la pointe du progrès, sans cesser de satisfaire les opérateurs et d’aider nos clients à détecter facilement et en toute confiance les menaces et faits de contrebande.

INTA

Depuis sa création, notre société, est mue par la volonté d’innover et de renforcer ses compétences en matière de technologies d’inspection non intrusives. Nous sommes experts et jouissons d’une expérience pratique de la détection des faits de contrebande et de la technologie des scanners à rayons X qui remonte à plus de 15 ans. L’entreprise lituanienne INTA a été la première à proposer des programmes de formation révolutionnaires visant l’acquisition de compétences essentielles en scanographie et en détection dans le but d’améliorer la sécurité aux frontières et d’aider à lutter contre le commerce illicite. Lorsqu’il s’agit de faire passer des marchandises illégales en contrebande, les criminels font preuve d’une imagination croissante et protéger efficacement les frontières reste une tâche ardue. De nouvelles technologies arrivent sur le marché, mais elles sont de peu d’utilité si les personnes qui les utilisent ne sont pas correctement formées. Pour que les contrôles aux frontières gagnent en efficacité sans que la sécurité en pâtisse, nous proposons des formations poussées (Standard Test Container ou STC) en analyse d’images radiographiques de marchandises et reconnaissance d’objets présentant un risque. Leur but est de permettre à tous les analystes d’images d’acquérir les compétences nécessaires à l’utilisation des logiciels de traitement d’images pour postes de travail, ainsi qu’aux techniques d’interprétation d’images et de détection des menaces. De plus, les agents des douanes sont formés aux tendances globales qui affectent les procédures de contrôle, ainsi qu’à l’analyse efficace d’images d’armes, de stupéfiants, de devises, de contrebande, de marchandises non déclarées et d’autres articles intéressants.

But there is definitely much more to this city which promotes knowledge like no other. Today, Maastricht has become a magnet to international and European associations, thanks to a multitude of international organizations and educational institutes in many areas of endeavours. This beautiful city, located right in the heart of Europe, has been chosen by the Dutch Customs Administration as the host city for this conference. The combination of the historic city with the Burgundian lifestyle, the international character, the wide range of restaurants and hotels and the renewed conference facilities of the MECC was decisive. As the official convention bureau of the Maastricht region, the Maastricht Convention Bureau has been closely involved in the preparations.

Frank Heijmann, Head of Trade Relations Customs Netherlands and member of the project team:  ‘This region has a strong conference community that walks the extra mile to ensure maximum impact of the WCO conference. The highly innovative and international character of the region makes this a great location for the type of conference that we as Dutch Customs Administration want to put on for our international colleagues.’

WCO Academy description for TechConference

In 2017 the WCO agreed to take a new step in offering online capacity building to the private sector and academia by giving the green light to the launch of the WCO Academy, private sector’s point of access to the expertise of the World Customs Organization. Ever since that, the aim has been to upskill private sector to speak the same language like Customs and make that way private-public cooperation more effective and efficient.

Staff of companies dealing with Customs, consultants, lawyers, students, Customs Brokers and other international trade professionals have shown their strong interest to receive training directly from the WCO. Providing an adequate access to the knowledge about the WCO tools and instruments and their proper use to the private sector is an entire part of the Organization's objectives of capacity building to enhance private-public cooperation, facilitate trade and support the implementation of the WCO standards. Moreover, the dissemination of information and knowledge related to WCO standards, tools and instruments to a wider audience is an important initiative to support their implementation at global scale. What adds even more value to this initiative is that it benefits also small and medium companies that normally have no means to secure advice or services from professional experts on Customs matters.

WCO Academy was launched on May 1st 2018. Around four thousand users have registered in WCO Academy during the first four years. Also, our learners come from over 60 different countries from all six WCO regions.

Altana

Altana has created a Trusted Network Platform (the Altana Atlas). We have set out to connect and learn from the world’s supply chain data - including public and non-public data - in order to build a shared source of truth. Our Altana Atlas platform renders billions of data points into a living network model of the global supply chain that can power a range of software applications in functions across the enterprise, from procurement, to logistics, to compliance, to risk management, and beyond.

On top of the Atlas, Altana delivers the "Trusted Shipment" product used by customs authorities, global logistics providers, and shippers worldwide to facilitate trusted trade.

This product supports the automation and facilitation of cross-border shipment processing by 1) identifying the sender and receiver in the Atlas, understanding who they are, what products they buy and sell, where they operate, and to whom they are connected, 2) identifying what is “inside the box,” automatically assigning HS classifications to shipments, or auditing existing classifications and 3) providing customs officials with a “trust” score, identifying whether the shipment is normal, compliant, and trustworthy, or whether it is likely to be deemed risky or found non-compliant by a customs authority.

National Committee of Trade Facilitation of the Netherlands

The National Committee of Trade Facilitation of the Netherlands or the NCTF (Overleg Douane Bedrijfsleven or ODB) consists of the Customs Administration of the Netherlands and representatives of the business sector. The NCTF members have wideranging discussions on issues which relate to the movement of goods which cross the external border of the European Union. Equality and mutual transparency form the basis of the dialogue. The parties become aware of their respective responsibilities, interests and wishes and where possible, they coordinate these. In this way, together, the parties seek the best possible balance between enforcement and trade facilitation. Further to the close cooperation between Customs and the business sector, the NCTF has the status of the National Committee on Trade Facilitation for the government of the Netherlands. As a result, depending on the items on the agenda, several representatives of other government bodies join the consultations.

This way of cooperation is unique in the world. The members of the NCTF are happy to inform you more in detail about it at the NCTF-booth at the WCO  Technology Conference and Exhibition.

Via the internet links in this app more information about the NCTF of the Netherlands is available.
