Since 2013, actively promoting the development and operation of the centralized examination and verification system is a microcosm of the Gansu inspection and Quarantine Bureau vigorously promoting the reform of management mode and constantly improving its ability to check.

As one of the key work objectives, centralized examination system has become a main line running through inspection work in recent years.

Centralized examination is based on its management system, the use of information, electronic, intelligent means of automatic inspection, automatic batches, automatic control of inspection data, the inspection and quarantine business management requirements in the form of electronic instructions, throughout all aspects of inspection and quarantine business.

The system has achieved rapid clearance under strict supervision. It is a breakthrough and innovation of inspection and quarantine work mode, and has become an important carrier of Gansu Bureau's business reform, process reengineering and mode innovation.

Centralized examination has increased the speed and accuracy of the examination, unified the standard and caliber of law enforcement, improved the credibility of law enforcement, and established a new channel for communication between enterprises and enterprises, which has reduced the time and cost of changing orders and withdrawal.

Since the on-line operation of the system, the inspection hall has reduced nearly half of the reception business.

The inspection personnel do not need to go to the inspection hall for processing procedures. They can take the electronic inspection documents and submit the documents directly to the corresponding inspection rooms for subsequent operation.

In order to make the system run smoothly, the formulation of rules for checking papers has been continuously improved.

Up to now, the Gansu inspection and Quarantine Bureau has a total of nearly 200 rules and regulations, which have already met the requirements of various commodity inspection procedures in the province.

In view of the fact that Gansu's foreign trade volume is small, the geographical distribution of inspection and quarantine institutions is relatively scattered. In the context of the central requirements for comprehensive deepening reform and the "one belt and one way" regional economic development strategy, Gansu inspection and Quarantine Bureau has boldly explored and promoted business innovation and development. Since April 2014, the inspection and quarantine system in Gansu has implemented the "notification and discharge" mode of operation, and has become one of the first inspection and quarantine institutions in the country to launch the business.

"Bulletin Tong Fang" is designed to enhance the level of customs clearance and facilitate the reform of the traditional "territorial inspection, territorial inspection and territorial visa release". Enterprises can inspect, pay, visas and release the entry and exit goods in any institution in the Gansu inspection and quarantine area, and achieve the goal of "self selection, close inspection, release in the near future, and evidence collection in the near future".

Combined with the experience of learning from Zhuhai, Shanghai and other bureaus, the personnel in the hall of inspection and inspection have been brainstorming and working hard, and issued a work mode of Gansu's "bulletin through inspection and discharge" which is more in line with Gansu's reality and more convenient to operate.

They took the lead in trying first, and took the new step of "reform through notification."

To break the original administrative jurisdiction restrictions, import and export enterprises may choose to go through the procedures of inspection and visa release in any inspection and quarantine organ within the jurisdiction of the Gansu Bureau, so as to achieve the nearest inspection and collection.

Eliminating the hardships of enterprises, greatly reducing the cost of enterprise clearance, for enterprises to open a save time and effort of the "revolving door".

For example, the seed export enterprises in Jiuquan area, because they do not have the experimental ability of breeding seeds, can choose the inspection and Quarantine Bureau of Gansu for inspection, and the convenience of obtaining evidence in Jiuquan inspection and Quarantine Bureau.

The Gansu Bureau has also become one of the few inspection and quarantine bureaus in the country that is the first to achieve the "notification through inspection" mode.
