What are Global Trade Management Solutions?

 

Global Trade Management (GTM) talk about to the management of global trade processes (Import & Export activities) related to customs and regulatory compliance, trade financing, and global logistics. 



 

We take care of the details so you can focus on your Goal.

 

Many organizations refer to Global Trade management as their compliance program. This can include but is not limited to worldwide product classifications, restricted party screening, license determination, Trade Export, Trade Content, Trade document, export controls, and import & export documentation and data management.

To manage their import and export trade content to mitigate risk, drive operational efficiencies, and improve collaboration and communication with trade partners, vendors, customers, and internally, most companies have implemented GTM software. Unlike many other software solutions that typically reduce workloads, most implemented GTM software solutions drive more significant data volumes as companies identify and address risks, gaps, and operational challenges to ensure ongoing compliance. As a result, too many companies lack the in-house expertise and bandwidth to keep up with the demands of managing trade compliance.

 

The challenges of supporting GTM are many:


Customs Filing, trade strategies, and guidelines are ever-changing, which needs skill and bandwidth.


Every company has a different global trade, business, industry and obedience requirements and trading partners that must be supported as part of their Global Trade Management or compliance program.


Every company has a different technology footprint and configuration/integration of GTM technology to support their program.


Support of GTM or compliance programs involves the complexities of languages, currencies, time zones, and currencies.
