BIS - Median processing time for new regime regulations (months)

Changes to regime control lists have been agreed to by the members of the multilateral regimes, who are the U.S. export control partners. If those changes result in tighter controls, they must be implemented to address national security or proliferation concerns, and if they result in liberalizations, they must be implemented to ensure that U.S. industry is not disadvantaged vis-à-vis our allies. Therefore, it is important to refer the draft multilateral changes for interagency review in three months or less from plenary meeting dates in order to meet our multilateral obligations, maximize U.S. competitiveness, and enable economic growth for American industries, workers, and consumers. Effective and efficient adaptation of export controls advances responsible economic growth and trade while protecting American security.

Trade Waste Hauler Licensees

Companies listed as of the most recent export date have been issued trade waste removal licenses by the Business Integrity Commission and, therefore, are authorized to collect and remove all types of trade waste covered by Local Law 42 of 1996. This data is collected on the entities that apply with the commission to operate as Licensees. Each record represents an entity that is approved to operate in the City of New York by the Commission. The Application Type field denotes the class of application 'License' noting the type of applicant which is a Licensee. They are able to pickup all trade waste from various businesses throughout the city. The BIC Number field is unique to every company that applies to the Commission.

ITA - Percentage of U.S. exporter clients that achieved their export objectives

This measure evaluates Global Markets’ effectiveness in helping companies achieve their export objectives. Global Markets offers U.S. companies a robust set of capabilities to help them achieve their international exporting goals, whether those goals are to set up an overseas distribution channel, gain easier access to challenging markets, or meet additional foreign buyers for their goods. Global Markets focuses on understanding clients’ exporting needs, and providing services to meet those needs.

BIS - Percent of attendees rating seminars highly

This metric is designed to measure the overall effectiveness of the entire export control outreach seminar program. Given the volume of trade from the United States, informing U.S. and foreign businesses of the requirements of the EAR is a critical component of our export control system. The target is for at least 93% of the seminar attendees to give the seminar an overall rating of at least 4 (out of a 5 level scale).

BIS - Number of exporters educated and trained through outreach activities

BIS - Number of export transactions completed under the new authority of Commerce export licenses and license exceptions

Export Control Reform (ECR) has moved tens of thousands of items -- mostly parts and components -- from the U.S. Munitions List to the more flexible Commerce Control List. The move has enabled more nuanced distinctions among technologies, destinations, and end users than under the State Department's International Traffic in Arms Regulations. BIS will track shipments of such items made under the Automated Export System.

ITA - Number of U.S exporters assisted (non-digital)

This indicator illustrates ITA’s reach into the U.S. business community. Historical data indicates that over 75 percent of companies assisted are small and medium–sized enterprises. This measure illustrates Global Markets’ annual effectiveness in providing export counseling and assistance to additional U.S. companies.

BIS - Number of end-use checks completed

A key element of BIS policy formulation and implementation toward other key countries is conducting end-use checks (EUCs) to verify that targeted dual-use exports will be or have been used properly by the appropriate end-users. EUCs consist of both pre-license checks (PLC) and post shipment verifications (PSVs). PLCs are used to determine if an overseas person or firm is a suitable party to a transaction involving controlled U.S. origin goods or technical data. A PSV confirms whether goods exported from the U.S. actually were received by the party named on the license or other export documentation, and whether the goods are being used consistent with the provisions of that license.

BIS - Percent of electronic export information (EEI) transactions reported in the Automated Export System (AES) in compliance with the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)

This indicator evaluates how effective the BIS export control system is in ensuring items exported and reported as electronic export information transactions in the Automated Export System (AES) comply with the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). BIS will measure exporter EAR compliance by reviewing, on a quarterly and annual basis, the entire compilation of export transactions under BIS jurisdiction (i.e., BIS licensed, license exception and No License Required Shipments), and determine their EAR compliance percentage following any BIS intervention, as necessary
