Portcullis Technologies provides Non-Intrusive Cargo Scanning Solutions to governments and private organisations.
Non-intrusive cargo scanning is a vital aspect of supply chain security. Most countries are equipped with cargo scanners but are generally unable to achieve maximum benefits out of them. Operational challenges result in poor management and maintenance of both equipment and system, leading to a deterioration of the entire scanning process.
The following operating challenges are commonly encountered:
- Scanners not linked to other Customs, Port or Trading Systems
- Lack of proper supporting networks such as targetting, profiling or risk assessment
- Operators are not sufficiently trained or proficient in image interpretation
- Unable to have smooth flow thereby hindering down port, airport or border operations
- Facing trained manpower shortage
- Unable to economically maintain equipment
Portcullis Technologies provides solutions to these and other challenges at NO COST to scanner owners, be it government agencies like Customs & Excise Departments or private enterprises with vested interest in cargo security. We will establish World Class standard of operations, maintenance and systems to help protect revenue leakage and curb smuggling of prohibited goods.
We offer holistic cargo scanning solutions via two main schemes:

We are able to offer finance, installation, implementation and operational support to organisations such as Customs, Airports and Ports. In so doing, we employ best practices in ensuring the increase in the security of cargo entering/exiting at both land and sea checkpoints, streamline cargo clearance procedures integrating and upgrading computer systems into existing port clearance/trade systems to ensure minimal disruption to commerce.
The only responsibilities still held by the Scanner Owner would be the selection of containers to scan, the interpretation of the images and the subsequent decision on what to do with the cargo. This ensure no sovereignty or authority overrides or compromise.
By engaging us, any new or existing cargo scanning set up will be established, improved or enhanced to World Class standards such as the World Customs Organisation’s Framework of Standard and International Ionising Radiations Regulation 1999.
Besides the obvious benefit of NO EXPENDITURE INCURRED, there are numerous other benefits to both governments and private or government agency will be tremendous and realizable relatively quickly.
Contact us for an assessment of your existing cargo scanning facility and operations. Or if your organisation has plans to establish or expand scanning operations, our experts will provide an in-depth audit of current as well as future needs.
