Q U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has many technological initiatives to speed up its processes. For example, the dock worker identification program creates a common database of authorized personnel at ports of entry, which can create efficiency. However, it can also create drawbacks for a fluid workforce. Referring to the U.S. Customs process, discuss the balance between security and speed in a global supply chain and offer examples of when those two factors might be in conflict. In your responses to your peers, discuss your thoughts on the example they presented. Do you tend to lean more toward the need for security or the need for efficiency? Explain your reasoning. Refer to the Small Group Discussion Guidelines and Rubric for directions on completing these discussions.
