PERSPECTIVE

• Truck traffic at the border

– 4.8M+ Incoming trucks from Mexico in 2007 (ref: BTS)

• Current Piecemeal and partial solutions

• Non existing integration between security, logistics, and traffic

• Lack of tools for infrastructure planning and optimization

• Detrimental conditions for trade between the U.S. and Mexico

CLOSING REMARKS

• Technology-based solutions for logistics-related issues are available and positioned for prime time

• Integration platforms that address security offer value added benefits at local, regional, and national levels

• The ability to visualize, communicate, and analyze trade-related events is critical to keep up with progress

• “Keeping up with” is not enough

• SUCCESS will depend on accessibility to information, technology-based decision support tools, and the ability to test, evaluate, predict and plan in a safe and cost-effective environment

• We can make it happen now
