Report Date March 29, 1999
Report No. AIMD-99-37
Subject
Summary:

The U.S. Customs Service has established effective Year 2000 program management controls, including structure and processes for Year 2000 testing, contingency planning, and Year 2000 status reporting. As a result, the agency's latest status reports to the Treasury Department show good progress in converting its systems and mitigating century date change risks to its core business operations. Very important tasks remain, however, such as completing end-to-end tests and validating contingency plans for ensuring continuity of core business functions. Also, serious risks exist outside of Customs' control, such as Year 2000-induced failures of both the public infrastructure and business partner systems. Customs has plans to complete key tasks and address external risks, and it has the management controls in place to ensure that they are accomplished. Although these controls do not guarantee that Year 2000-induced systems failures will not occur, Customs can reduce its risk of Year 2000-induced business failures by following through on its plans and by implementing its management controls as it has done so far.
