Modernisation Principles

DESCRIPTION

This document outlines key principles for the holistic modernization of trade processes, focusing on maximizing the benefits of technology, such as 100% Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and leveraging Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) products. It emphasizes eliminating paper through eFiling, optimizing processes, and enhancing stakeholder involvement through education and partnerships. Significant internal and external benefits are identified, including improved turnaround time, reduced costs, and higher compliance levels. The approach ensures that cumulative benefits across processes lead to enhanced enforcement capabilities and better trade service.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Modernisation Principles • Maximise Benefits of Technology • e.g., 100% EDI • Leverage COTS Product • Elimination of Paper • eFiling (eliminate manual BOE submission) • Document management • Optimised Processes • Reduced Processing • Improved Turn Around Time • Robust Stakeholder Involvement • Partnerships, education/outreach, informed compliance • Enhanced Risk Management and Targeting • 3rd party data • CBCU & Scanner Roll Outs • Closing Key Gaps • Preferred Trader Programs • Define Trader Benefits (e.g., periodic entry) • Reliance on Post Audit Compliance • AEO Program

  2. Desired Outcomes • Step change benefits will be realised both Internal to SARS and also Externally to trade stakeholders. • Internal Benefits will include: paper reduction, increased human capacity and efficiency, reduced costs and higher trade compliance levels • External Benefits to traders will include: faster turn around time, elimination of paper and documentation costs and higher levels of customer service. E.g., SARS export pilot in PE costs Volkswagen R 1750 per container exported • Maximum step change will only be realised and quantifiable if modernisation is holistic: • People, Process & Technology • End-to-End focused (e.g., from registration to release/payment/acquittal) • Benefits are cumulative across and in between processes (e.g., registration + manifest + assessment + acquittal = total benefits • Perhaps the most significant benefits cannot be calculated – increase in enforcement capability, drug seizures, illicit goods (CITES, Abalone), revenue non-compliance (VAT fraud etc.)
