Here is the honest situation. C-TPAT is US Customs and Border Protection's voluntary supply chain security partnership, and membership means meeting the Minimum Security Criteria: a documented security program and risk assessment, business partner security, physical and access controls, conveyance and container integrity with high-security seals, personnel screening, training, and cybersecurity. A member that runs a secure operation but cannot show its risk assessment, its seal controls or its partner verification is exactly where members fall short at validation.
This Kit removes the guesswork. It is the Minimum Security Criteria written as adopt-ready controls you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence a validator examines.
What you get, the moment you buy
Grounded in the C-TPAT Minimum Security Criteria, with the security program and risk assessment, business partner security, physical and access controls, conveyance and container integrity and seals, personnel security, training and cybersecurity called out. Editable Word and Excel files.
What one control looks like
This is establishing the security program and commitment, where C-TPAT begins. All 18 are built to this depth.
Why this is not another template pack
- The evidence is the point. A criterion you cannot evidence is a validation finding. This tells you what a validator examines and where members fall short, for every criterion.
- Risk, seals and partners built in. The risk assessment, the seal and container controls and the business partner security are written into the controls, the substance the Minimum Security Criteria require.
- Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
- It compounds. C-TPAT aligns with your wider security and trade compliance, so this work feeds your broader supply chain program.
Who buys this
Importers, carriers, brokers, consolidators and manufacturers in the C-TPAT program and their security, logistics and compliance leads. Whether it is a first application or a validation-readiness pass, you save weeks and walk in with the program, partners, conveyance, personnel and cyber structured.
Common questions
Is it really editable? Yes. Word and Excel files you own and adapt. No portal, no subscription.
Is this the C-TPAT membership itself? No. It is an implementation toolkit grounded in the Minimum Security Criteria. Membership and validation are through CBP; this gets your program and evidence in order fast.
Does it cover seals and container integrity? Yes. High-security seals, seal control procedures and container integrity are built as controls.
Does it cover cybersecurity? Yes. Protecting information systems and handling cyber incidents are built as controls.
