3. 3 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved The Transportation Security Model is a conceptual model or “framework” designed to:  Build an understanding of the security threats facing the transportation system  Create a common view which addresses the security issues of each mode of transportation  Provides a structured approach to collect and analyze risk management data A Conceptual Framework

7. 7 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved The threat is systemic:  While there are a number of individual activities or programs, individual action will not provide the required security  Cargo is the thread of continuity across modes  Modal exchange and interchange points provide significant risk to compromising supply chain security regardless of a company’s individual activities  The threat is fluid and will change in response to any activities The Threat

8. 8 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved There has not been a comprehensive response:  There have been a number of approaches suggested to support freight and cargo security. Most of these focus on a specific aspect or component of security.  To date there has not been an overall vision or approach defined to support this critical function.  While the desire to avoid impacting supply chain efficiencies has been acknowledged, there has been little work or analysis to suggest how this can be accomplished The Response

10. 10 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved  At the 2002 Annual Meeting in New York, the Logistics and Transportation Governors discussed the issue of “Security” and its impact on the industry.  The World Economic Forum, Accenture, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) partnered to explore relevant industry-wide issues that could be addressed.  Decision was made to put in place a program to move the issue forward. The Freight Security Initiative was developed to provide the industry with a platform it could leverage to take a pro-active stance on addressing freight security. Program Background

11. 11 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved  Crystallize and communicate the issues regarding freight security  Conduct a fact-based analysis of these issues and develop corresponding recommendations  Provide recommendations from the business community to governments and controlling entities such as IATA, US DOT and the EU to develop and implement programs and processes for global freight security  Identify and mobilize the appropriate resources to influence these issues and implement the recommendations The program will provide a means to identify and communicate inter-modal security issues and create a framework for industry to engage governments and controlling entities. Program Objectives

12. 12 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved  Conduct fifteen to twenty interviews with senior executives representing carriers, shippers, government authorities, and insurance companies  Conduct a broad survey of executives in the transportation industry based on the interview responses  Analyze interview and survey results and develop key messages  Develop and disseminate a white paper for the 2003 Transport and Logistics Governors Meeting The initial research will be developed to support the Annual Meeting in Davos with both qualitative as well as quantitative research. Project Plan

13. 13 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved Industry Perception of the Threat Anecdotal evidence supports our belief that the industry views the threat to freight security to be highly relevant. Internal Security Initiatives Organizations are reviewing security procedures and policies, but there has been little impact on reducing the overall threat to freight security. Government Initiatives Governments are taking a controlled response to freight security, but still lack unilateral security measures to deal with the issue. Customer Security Requirements Shippers will rely on carriers to lead the effort in developing industry and organizational programs to address the security issue. The Economics of Security An effective freight security program will increase supply chain costs, however there currently is no clear economic model for providing enhanced security. The Research is Structured Around Our Five Freight Security Hypotheses

14. 14 ©Accenture 2002 All Rights Reserved Facility and Operations Assessments Conduct assessments and certify the operations of each provider in the supply chain – shippers, carriers including maritime, rail, truck, air, and bus, freight forwarders, and port operators Shipment Data Repository Establish a standard repository for all shipment data that includes the origination, route, and each “handling” that occurs. Tracking Technology Utilize technologies – RFID, GPS, Smart Seals – to track shipments in route and potential tampering activities. Pre-Emptive Screening Utilize shipment manifest information to target suspect or high risk shipments for detail inspections or analysis. Re-Active Countermeasures Utilize technologies to track vehicle locations against pre- authorized routes and schedules. If deviations occur, vehicles could be stopped electronically. This Platform can be Used for an Industry Led Response in Key Focus Areas Illustrative
