Other Border and Port Administration Centers (Source Physical Object): Representing another Border and Port Administration Center, 'Other Border and Port Administration Centers' is intended to provide a source and destination for information exchange between international border and port administration functions. It enables transportation management activities to be coordinated across international borders.

These agencies include U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its counterparts in Canada and Mexico. DHS includes components like Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and Transportation Security Administration (TSA).

    InteroperabilityDescription
    RegionalInteroperability throughout the geopolitical region is highly desirable, but if implemented differently in different transportation management jurisdictions, significant benefits will still accrue in each jurisdiction. Regardless, this Information Flow Triple should be implemented consistently within a transportation jurisdiction (i.e., the scope of a regional architecture).
