Sufolk Coastal Port Health Authority (SCPHA) provides and updates
comprehensive online guidance about import controls, operational
changes and legislative requirements for importers. This is then
emailed proactively to a growing list of subscribers and shared on
social media.
Sufolk Coastal Port Health Authority (SCPHA) has developed the
sophisticated Port Health Interactive Live Information System (PHILIS)
to track vessel arrivals, record health checks, manage correspondence
and process imports as quickly as possible. This is outsourced to the
majority of Britain9s port health authorities, with ongoing support and
maintenance provided by SCPHA9s IT team. PHILIS communicates with
other industry-standard systems such as IPAFFS, Destin8 and CNS
Compass to exchange crucial information electronically.
The much-anticipated next evolution of PHILIS, NEOMA, is currently
being developed by SCPHA9s IT team. This will use cutting-edge
technology, such as artiocial intelligence, to increase the eïciency of
port health operations and cut down on waste.
