On BOMB (Border Operating Model Bollox) I have no inclination to read it in depth but from what I have I see nothing new to prevent "disaster area" if not "disaster area with rocket boosters"..for me it just raises more questions? Where is the sufficiently trained competent staff
and facilities coming from for all these new sites? Even if they are available in *any* capacity? What about drivers' hours and transit times? Perishables? any slight delay/increased transit through these sites will render the shipments worthless. ICDs with BCPs should be as
close to port of arrival as possible: puzzled at how they will police/monitor driver accompanied loads to sites. More "smartfreight"? Joy! And don't see much on non specialist goods that make up majority of imports shipments.. SMEs are going to be overwhelmed with procedures
/tech stuff/even HS codes & Incoterms.
I know the majority will be expecting a freight forwarder/customs agent to sort it all out for them....only there will not be enough ('50,000' extra intermediates) of them. In fact many forwarders will be stuggling to upskill existing staff
