Global Trade Compliance Benchmarking Consortium

Today’s business environment is truly global as companies search the world for sources of supply and market opportunities. These extended supply chains can be quite complex to manage as they span different trade lanes, policies, and geographies. The Global Trade Compliance Benchmarking Consortium addresses contemporary issues related to regulatory compliance, cargo security, C-TPAT, ISA, NAFTA, outsourcing best practices, classification, valuation/assists, record keeping, rules of origin, port congestion, and import data collection. Participating companies
have realized substantial savings through business process improvements from results of an annual survey and valuable networking opportunities with fellow benchmark members.
