COAC Advisory Committee on Commercial Operations of Customs and Border Protection (COAC) Overview COAC is an advisory committee established in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The committee provides advice to the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the Secretary of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Secretary of the Treasury on all matters involving the commercial operations of CBP and related functions within DHS or Treasury. It also plays an important role in not only improving supply chain security but ensuring that trade is not disrupted in the process. It is expected that during its eleventh two-year term, COAC will consider issues that include: a strategic plan to enhance supply chain security, more detailed information about the movement of cargo and the impact of security policies on international trade. COAC committee members include representatives from manufacturing, retailing and the high technology sector as well as transportation and logistics. APL/APLL is proud to have member representation on this distinguished committee ensuring our
industry is expertly and effectively represented.
