Overview of This Information 

Collection 

Title: Global Interoperability 

Standards (GIS) 

OMB Number: 1651–0NEW. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Current Actions: New Collection of 

Information. 

Type of Review: New Collection of 

Information. 

Affected Public: Businesses. 

Abstract: The Silicon Valley 

Innovation Program (SVIP), part of the 

Department of Homeland Security’s 

Science and Technology Directorate, 

helps develop and find new 

technologies that strengthen national 

security with the goal of reshaping how 

government and industry work together 

to find cutting-edge solutions to 

problems such as those involved in 

pipeline-borne goods. Neoflow (a SVIP 

participant) has a platform (the Neoflow 

platform) to document the movement 

(including ownership changes) of crude 

oil. The Neoflow platform will monitor 

Canadian crude oil, a continuous flow 

commodity, using global 

interoperability standards (GIS) adopted 

by test participants who will supply and 

input the GIS data into the Neoflow 

platform where CBP will be able to view 

the data in near real time. GIS data 

utilizes decentralized identifiers (DIDs) 

and verifiable credentials (VCs) to help 

in identifying legitimate products and 

associated companies to build a 

transparent supply chain. 

A transparent supply chain will be 

achieved in the Neoflow platform 

through the recordation of bi-lateral 

transaction data at each step in a supply 

chain, allowing for dynamic updates of 

ownership and destination information, 

securing supply chains from disclosure 

to unauthorized parties, and making this 

data available to CBP in near real time 

while creating an immutable chain of 

custody from wellhead to refinery. 

If successful, the test could result in 

the ability to potentially eliminate all 

port-level paper processes as well as 

create an automation environment in 

which pre-arrival data collection, inbond tracking, and Free Trade 

Agreement compliance traceability no 

longer pose issues. 

Therefore, the purpose of the test is to 

measure the usefulness and accuracy of 

the Neoflow platform’s GIS with a view 

toward resolving any issues prior to 

determining next steps (which could 

include implementing new policies and 

regulations leading to the integration of 

GIS data with the Automated 

Commercial Environment (ACE) for 

Canadian crude oil and other pipeline 

commodities for entry purposes). The 

test will be limited to pipeline oil 

products coming from Canada but may 

be expanded in the future to other 

commodities upon successful 

implementation of the test. 

This collection of information is 

authorized by 19 U.S.C. 1411 National 

Customs Automation Program. 

Type of Information Collection: NonStandard PDF. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

24. 

Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses per Respondent: 12. 

Estimated Number of Total Annual 

Responses: 288. 

Estimated Time per Response: 4 

hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 1,152.
