In early January 2005, RHE & Associates was selected for the ‘Middleware Technology’ project after an extensive tender process.

The middleware solution includes the ability to configure, manage and deploy the business rules for functions such as governing and auditing access to Customs’ systems. Customs’ computer system ‘CusMod’ completes three million transactions per day. Each one is recorded and stored in a data warehouse that grows by about three hundred million megabytes a month. The Middleware Technology Integration project’s purpose is to extend the useful life of CusMod, by web-enabling Customs’ systems and providing:

• Security of data and that only the appropriate information gets through to the right place·
• Reduction in cost and complexity of integrating with CusMod by eliminating point-to-point integrations·
• Integrity of CusMod by implementing other agencies business logic outside of CusMod
