Description: |
The US Export Systems (USXPORTS) is a $30 million plus, congressionally mandated, mission essential IT system, which is having a positive and lasting impact on our national security, homeland defense, and the US economy. USXPORTS, which rolled out Version 3.0 on May 16, 2005, is expediting the license application decision process while concurrently improving protection of national security interests and industry proprietary data. The program, which automates a predominantly paper-based process, projects a return on investment of over 200% as a result of reduced use of paper, manpower savings, reduced cycle times and productivity enhancements. These benefits are realized by both DoD and Industry. The system improves throughput of export applications within DoD, resulting in a direct and dramatic impact on exports and the U.S. economy. This initiative will design, develop, and deploy enhancements to USXPORTS IAW DoDD 5000.2, the Clinger-Cohen Act, GPEA, and other regulations/policies. Enhancements include: Expanding Service Component's requirements to include auto-staffing and databases; Expanding the intelligence capability within DoD organizations and among export control Government Agencies; Expanding the advanced analysis capability to include indirect analysis/data mining and document comparison. Providing capability to capture export shipped data and build additional interagency interfaces as appropriate. |
