C-TPAT is a US government-business initiative that was introduced in 2001. It is designed to strengthen overall supply chain and border security by working in close cooperation with the key members of the supply chain-importers, carriers, brokers, warehouse operators and manufacturers. Businesses must apply to participate in C-TPAT, which can be done via the US Customs website.
It is quite the long title but what itâs about is pretty simple. Essentially, it is a voluntary supply chain security that is a program led by both the Border protection and U.S. Customs that helps focus on improving the security of a variety of private companies supply chains, with respect to terrorism. Rather than put a company at risk, C-TPAT helps to eliminate the risk.
