Another day in The Kingdom

Time to go to London again. Brexit is the largest change in the Customs and Border environment in our lifetime and it is exiting to be able to play a role in the practical technical aspects of this historical event.

As a Customs and Border expert, I have worked more than three decades on development, reform and modernization – in 120 countries. Designing modern, innovative, customs and border solutions is what I do for a living. This is my home.

Thus it is a privilege and honor to be invited to give advise on different potential solutions to the border arrangements post-Brexit. On the other hand, it is also a normal day at work.

There is a solution. It is possible to use existing best practices, bring them to an optimized status, develop these opportunities to a new level (2.0) and use state-of-the-art (exisiting) technology – to do the job. It is even possible to do in the time availble. If we start now.
