Facilitating Trade:
Improving Customs Risk Management Systems
In the OIC Member States
101
have adopted an AEO, but in most of them, the number of certified companies is too low to
impact the channeling. PCA and AEO are approaches that support CRM and now increasingly
seen as a logical component of it (see Chapte
r 4.3.1.1.4).
4.3.2.5
Monitor and Review
The KPI defined by the OIC MS are general, most of them are related to the revenue aspects, not
on the TF and CRM performances.
CAs reported benefits from CRM in terms of processing time reductions, cost reductions, and
increase in quality of control, but no data was made available to show the impact of CRM on the
effectiveness of controls and processing times. 14 out of 16 CA, however, stated that CRM has
reduced number of physical inspections (se
e Table 25).

Cross-border cooperation
Sharing of intelligence with neighboring and overseas CAs reported 14 out of 16 CAs in the
surveyed OIC MS.
This reflects the growing attention given to cross-country cooperation in CRM. Cooperation with
WCO and use of their tools, such as CEN, is also frequent. 14 out of 16 accesses the WCO CEN
application, and have a RILO national contact point, and 13 uses the WCO nCEN application to
collect and store LE information at the national level (se
e Table 26an
d Table 27).
