Since the discussions and testing of the Advanced Trade Data Initiative (ATDI), the trade community has been aware that a new normal was inevitably going to arise from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency’s insatiable need for more information faster. As recent actions by CBP clearly illustrate, you are living in a fairy tale if you think ISF will not be implemented, or if you think you have plenty of time to execute a plan before the 2010 deadline. For the trade community, January 27, 2009, may have come in like a lamb, but January 28, 2010, will come roaring in like a lion.
