Infrastructure Update
LPOE Portfolio Characteristics & Need
Conditions straining the
infrastructure at land ports of entry
(LPOE) include:
• Rapid post-9/11 evolution of CBP
mission and operational
requirements
• Current facilities designed to meet
legacy missions
• On average, facilities over four
decades old
• Some facilities constructed more
than 70 years ago
• Traffic volumes are increasing
• Over- and under-staffing issues
strain existing facilities
• Facilities cannot adapt to handle
evolving inspection technologies

Current Landscape
Fiscal Challenges
No funding was provided through the GSA Federal Buildings Fund
appropriations in FY 2011. This will likely be the case again in FY
2012 and possibly even FY 2013.
$2.2 billion in Surface Transportation Reauthorization Bill LPOE
funds will likely fail to materialize. Planned significant investments to
key LPOEs denoted within the proposal have been put on hold until
sufficient funding becomes available.
FOF is anticipating a constrained FY12
and FY13 internal budget. Proposed
projects are currently being weighed
and prioritized accordingly.

Current Landscape
Strategic Planning 2.0
 CBP-procured Strategic Planning Support contract kicked off midOctober
 Initiative to reevaluate and potentially redefine our strategic planning
process
 Requirements development to be based on the concept of functional
outcomes instead of being locked into robust program of requirements
 Defined requirements checklist and process flows to chart mutually
understood path between requirements identification and eventual
hand-off to the Service Provider. Clear process will facilitate coordinated
delivery of transportation, trade, and security solutions
 Operational Requirements Document to better inform CBP investments
and feasibility studies through a broader account of portfolio, regional,
and site-specific landscapes
