The Philippine Bureau of Customs (BOC) has deployed Hytera Body-Worn Camera (BWC) Solution to their daily operation to modernize its enforcement and border protection capabilities.
The function of BOC, a Philippine government agency under the Department of Finance, is to assess and collect customs revenues from imported goods and other dues, fees, charges, and penalties. It is tasked with implementing border control to prevent smuggling and other customs fraud. It also supervises and controls the clearance of vessels and aircraft engaged in foreign commerce.
BOC selected Hytera BWC solution for its process of evidence collection, data storage and management as well as its GPS positioning and voice features which enable real-time monitoring, dispatching and coordination.
BOC will use Hytera BWC solution for transferring recorded data through the docking stations deployed in the 17 BOC offices and monitoring remotely by the Customs Operation Center (COC) to ensure more transparency and efficiency of law enforcement.
