The executive staff of Secure Origins, Inc. (SO) recently made a presentation in Torrance, California for the members of the Association of Importers and Exporters at their annual conference.

During their time in front of the trade association professionals, SO showcased its proprietary products and services. Secure Origins is the only firm that possesses patent pending cross border intelligence technologies that are preemptive and enabling of real-time risk analysis by firms engaged in international commerce,as well as by organizations that  are charged with its regulation and oversight.

Cross border intelligence technologies such as those offered by Secure Origins have the capability to enable organizations such as US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to develop better data streams and metrics, which they then can utilize to detect and address and limit border crossing inefficiencies that either slow the flow of burgeoning bi-national trade, or prevent law enforcement from performing their designated tasks and duties.

The need to develop and implement effective cross border intelligence technologies is growing as the movement of goods and people across international boundaries is expanding exponentially. In a report produced in 2013, the Government Accountability Office (GAO), advised the CBP to take measures to reduce wait times at U.S.-Mexico international border crossings. The Secure Origins team is actively looking to partner with the CBP, as well as with other and private sector organizations, to facilitate the timely flow of both northward and southward trade and commerce. .

On the border, as is the case anywhere else, time is money.
