IMSOC Information Management System for Official Controls Keywords: digital, integrated, interconnected, paperless. 1) Build the links with iRASFF/AAC/EUROPHYT/ADNS (currently unidirectional link in place for TRACES Classic and iRASFF) fulfil art. 74 non-compliance with and withdrawal of the approval of pre-export controls performed by Third Countries 2) Exchanges with National Systems (e.g. Netherlands, Germany …) 3) Conditions for Third Countries to use IMSOC System2System (e.g. New Zealand, Australia, Morocco, Argentina, Brazil, Singapore, Thailand, Japan, Malaysia, China…) 4) Electronic Certification (e.g. pilot with Morocco, Spain and France)
Opportunities Streamline control process in the EU Single Market Paperless flow opportunity for far more efficiency Align control performances in EU Better implement EU access restrictions in case of issue Feeding a common knowledge base Predictive analysis to better target controls and align performances
How to: IMSOC Step by Step EUROPHYT ADNS TRACES EUROPHYT BOVEX iRASFF AAC TRACES iRASFF IMSOC ADNS BOVEX AAC Align legal acts to achieve same standards Align datasets and data dictionaries Establish communication protocols EU-MS Streamline functions (e.g common search) TRACES BOVEX iRASFF AAC FF
IMSOC TODAY – an example IMSOC will make automatic what you are currently doing manually The original information from the BIPs is every time manually copied from one system to another, and enriched with further data TRACES Certification Border Rejection (Risk to public health & Food Fraud aspect) iRASFF Alerts AAC/ Food Fraud Health and Fraud aspects IMSOC IMSOC will be able to aggregate data on official controls from every system, and display it according to the “need to know” principle

100% DOCUMENTARY CHECKS done electronically Prediction Module Guiding principle: automate as much as possible to allow more Inspectors on the field 100% DOCUMENTARY CHECKS done electronically STRUCTURED DATA IN TRACES Based on PATTERNS in past records this analysis is able to answer specific questions Predictive Analysis
PREDICTION MODULE actual experience with KXEN and CVED-P Keywords: pilot project, low budget, great potential, new technologies Trade is regulated by strict legislation defined at EU level. Controls are triggered by: EU legislation Personal suspicion of Inspectors Random PREDICTION MODULE = increase the efficiency and effectiveness for random controls
PREDICTION MODULE PERFORMANCE Predictive model on Austria consignments, 30% consignments checked=> 99% of problematic consignments detected! Analysis of Austria consignments for 2007, 2008 and 2009
Example of possible predictions in OCR Article 54(3)(a) The Commission shall establish the criteria and the procedures for determining and modifying the frequency rates of identity checks and physical according to the risk and having regards to: Information on TC control systems; Operators' past records; Data in IMSOC (certificates in TRACES, notifications in RASFF, cases in AAC etc..); Available scientific assessment; Any other info;
