Book excerpt: This document provides our personnel with overarching guidance to counter the threats we face as a nation, outlines our primary core competencies, and establishes goals and objectives to successfully achieve our vision. These objectives are not all-inclusive; instead they represent the most critical steps we must take as we prepare for the future. AMO Vision 2025 was developed to support the goals and objectives described in CBP Vision and Strategy 2020, DHS 2014-2018 Strategic Plan, and the DHS Southern Border and Approaches Campaign Plan. In particular, it highlights the importance of operating proactively to meet evolving threats, with increased emphasis on intelligence, investigations, and interagency partnerships, as well as continued coordinated operations within CBP. I am confident that it will spark a heightened sense of mission ownership among our entire workforce.
