'''Border Connect Inc.''' is a Canadian software company that provides web-based tools and related services to help highway carriers and other logistics stakeholders submit cross-border electronic manifest information (including ACE for the U.S. and ACI for Canada) and monitor release/arrival-related statuses through CBSA’s Release Notification System (RNS).<ref>BorderConnect – ACI eManifest for Canada. https://www.borderconnect.com/aci-e-manifest/index.htm</ref><ref>BorderConnect – RNS-PARS Tracking for Canada. https://www.borderconnect.com/pars-check/index.htm</ref>
 
The company is headquartered in Windsor, Ontario and appears on CBSA’s published list of “Internet Connectivity Software to CBSA” providers.<ref>CBSA – Internet Connectivity Software to CBSA. https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/eservices/sp-fs/icsc-lcia-eng.html</ref>


== History ==
== Products and services ==


Founded in Windsor, Ontario, BorderConnect developed a pioneering PARS tracking service utilizing the Release Notification System. This innovative solution quickly gained popularity, assisting hundreds of companies by 2006. Recognizing the mandatory requirement of ACE Manifests by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), we responded by developing an ACE Manifest solution focused on fast data entry, enabling companies to create eManifests more efficiently than through CBP's ACE Portal.
BorderConnect’s product offering includes:
* '''ACE / ACI eManifest web portal''': carrier-focused tools designed to support electronic manifest submission and tracking for cross-border highway shipments.<ref>BorderConnect – ACI eManifest for Canada. https://www.borderconnect.com/aci-e-manifest/index.htm</ref>
* '''RNS–PARS Tracking''': a PARS visibility tool that uses CBSA’s Release Notification System (RNS) to provide status updates for Canadian-bound shipments (including PARS-related updates).<ref>BorderConnect – RNS-PARS Tracking for Canada. https://www.borderconnect.com/pars-check/index.htm</ref>
* '''WACM / RNS Arrivals''': tools for transmitting and reviewing Warehouse Arrival Certification Message (WACM) events using CBSA RNS workflows (intended for sufferance warehouse arrival reporting use cases).<ref>BorderConnect – Warehouse Arrival Certification Message (WACM) / RNS Arrivals. https://www.borderconnect.com/warehouse-arrivals/index.htm</ref>
* '''U.S. In-Bond Manager''': a tool marketed for managing U.S. bonded shipment workflows (including arrival/export visibility and status retrieval).<ref>BorderConnect – U.S. In-Bond Manager. https://www.borderconnect.com/us-in-bond-manager/index.htm</ref>
* '''eManifest Developer API''': an API intended for integration with dispatch, fleet, or other business software so third-party systems can create/maintain ACE/ACI eManifest data through BorderConnect.<ref>BorderConnect – eManifest Developer API. https://www.borderconnect.com/emanifest-api/index.htm</ref>
* '''24/7 eManifest processing service''': a service workflow where customers can send details by fax/email for BorderConnect to process and submit manifests on their behalf.<ref>BorderConnect – 24/7 eManifest Processing and Support. https://www.borderconnect.com/fax-service/index.htm</ref>


Understanding the need for constant availability, BorderConnect introduced 24/7/365 eManifest processing and support for highway carriers. This groundbreaking initiative empowered hundreds of carriers to process ACE and later ACI eManifests, while receiving the timely support they require at any given time.
== History ==


When the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) introduced ACI eManifest, BorderConnect was quick to respond with one of the first ACI eManifest software solutions. This ensured our customers had a familiar and user-friendly experience similar to our ACE eManifest software.
BorderConnect was founded in 2004 by Daniel Dent, who is listed as the company’s Chief Executive Officer.<ref>WEAN – Board of Directors & Team (Daniel Dent bio). https://weangelnetwork.com/team/</ref><ref>BorderConnect – Meet Our Team (CEO listing). https://www.borderconnect.com/meet-our-team.htm</ref>


Continuing our commitment to seamless integration, BorderConnect launched an eManifest API for third-party software, providing a simple solution for fleet management and other business software to connect with BorderConnect. This streamlined eManifest data entry for ACE and ACI, enabling our clients to enhance their fleet management and overall operational efficiency.
== Leadership ==


Responding to the changing requirements for U.S. In-Bond shipments by the U.S. CBP, BorderConnect developed an intuitive In-Bond Manager. This easy-to-use tool empowers our customers to track in-bond shipments, ensuring swift and accurate arrival and export processes.
BorderConnect lists Daniel Dent as Chief Executive Officer, Neil MacMillan as Chief Compliance Officer, and Jeff Radigan as Chief Financial Officer.<ref>BorderConnect – Meet Our Team. https://www.borderconnect.com/meet-our-team.htm</ref>
