First thoughts on the new version of the Border Operating Model
Nothing has changed – it's all additions to the previous version.
We’re getting a lot more info on infrastructure – sites for transit, SPS checks etc.

This is helpful as it will allow businesses and intermediaries to plan for their trade lanes. Especially for businesses planning to use transit or needing additional checks

Nothing on NI - but we knew that in advance.

Also new info on what HMRC refers to as "the artist formerly knowns at the Smart Freight System" - the new "check an HGV is ready to cross the border" system.

On the whole, this looks like it's going to be helpful.
Unanswered questions remain but HMRC/Gov well aware of that.
Still, particularly the info on sites should help biz to better plan which goods need to go through which post/ site/ exit/entry point. That's important
