Joint Sustainment Decision Tool (JSDT) solicitation just posted! Current logistics information technology tools available to the United States Department of Defense do not possess the speed, scale, and intelligence required to plan, coordinate, and harmonize sustainment in multi-domain, large-scale, high operational tempo conflicts. Consequently, the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) and the DOD seek a logistics support tool that can generate realistic courses of action (CoA) options for commanders in dynamic, contested, and degraded environments, preferably utilizing artificial intelligence and/or machine learning. Submissions requested by August 14, 2025 at 23:59:59 Eastern time. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eEpAPH9d

The agent space is seeing a lot of correlations right now to the TMS space . This post will bore a lot of people, but I think its fascinating. Another recruiting friend of mine will be announcing today hes leaving a "legacy" agent program after a number of years going to small tech heavy pro agent program ( not us). Ive posted this before, but this will be the 5th or 6th move like this in a matter of months. The strongest recruiters leaving bigger legacy programs for smaller more tech heavy programs. With very pro agent policies. From a lot of conversations Ive had a lot of the legacy agent programs are mainly interested in maintaining their agents right now. Many are not adapting new technology, and not aggressively marketing or going after new agents. Also, many of their policies on splits, agent liability, and lack of tech makes it difficult for them to compete. They already have to fight saturation. They got their agents in a different time when it wasnt nearly competitive. Again this is just my opinion from conversations and what ive seen. And I am not saying all the legacy agent programs by any means. There are some strong ones who are adapting with the times. Many of the new agent programs are doing the opposite investing heavily into recruiting, tech, marketing, etc. This reminds out a lot of the TMS space where in the last few years several new players have been rapidly gaining ground on some of the legacy providers. Just like the TMS space though a lot of new entrants will fail, but imagine in a few years youll see 2-3 agent programs who have caught up and seen massive growth. It will be fun to watch! Happy Monday.

CBP Affirms ‘Open for Business’ during Government Shutdown Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials said during an 11:30 a.m. ET call with the trade today that the agency is currently “open for business” during the government shutdown and the ports of entry are fully staffed and operational to clear cargo and perform other trade-related functions.   CBP said it will continue to send out CSMS notices to the trade as normal. NCBFAA Members, if not already, should subscribe to receive these messages through the CBP website.   Answering a question from NCBFAA Executive Vice President Megan Montgomery regarding CBP's interactions with Partner Government Agencies (PGAs) during the shutdown, CBP stated that its fully operation and could not speak to any other agency involved with trade. However, CBP noted if there are issues involving PGAs, the proper protocol is to contact the local PGA official, then the local port CBP official, and lastly CBP's email at tradeevents@cbp.dhs.gov.   CBP officials also confirmed during the Q&A with the trade that:   ·   No impact on CBP Permit and Corporate Permit Payments. ·   Customs Broker’s License Exam – CBP hopes to have the CBLE as scheduled, and if that changes the agency will notify the trade. ·   ITC – CBP will check if HTS will be updated during the shutdown. ·   Permits will be processed as normal. ·   COLA Waiver applications – TTB Is furloughed, although CBP will verify.  ·   Refunds will be processed but questions remain whether the Treasury Department will issue the refunds. ·   CBP OR&R will be operational. ·   CBP has “toolbox” to handle PGA holds – Conditional Release and or contacting the Agency directly to release cargo and get it into the U.S. ·   ACE Support is still available to trade. ·   Does not impact CBP Ag, although CBP cannot speak to other agency furlough plans, such as USDA, but said to check the PGA webpages for shutdown protocols. ·   For overtime, CBP Office of Trade (OT) is authorized but check with CBP at the local port. ·   CBP trade webinars may be paused during shutdown. ·   FTZ and Bonded Warehouses – requests for activation processed as they normally would be. ·   CBP FP&F/Revenue divisions will continue as normal and any change will be communicated to the trade. ·   AGOA is currently expired. CBP does not allow retroactive quota or visa processing under any circumstances. ·   Trade Remedy Branch, Trade Remedy email inbox, and EAPA will continue as normal. Further questions from the trade may be emailed to CBP at tradeevents@cbp.dhs.gov.
