Due to time and cost restrictions, most importers cannot audit all of their entries on a regular basis and therefore they are potentially losing money due to classification errors, inaccurate quantities, or missed Free Trade Agreement eligibility. Plus, the U.S. Modernization Act requires importers to demonstrate "Reasonable Care" when filing entry data to Customs. This means that importers that do not validate their entries could potentially be in violation and face significant fines. To reduce this liability, Entry Visibility from Integration Point gives importers real-time visibility into 100% of their entries around the globe and allows them to compare entry data against up-to-date global trade content, classification data, value data, quantities, and any other commercially available data in an on-demand environment.
"To achieve the greatest value proposition, a global trade management (GTM) solution must provide three key elements: compliance software, up-to-date trade content, and connectivity to customs and trading partners," said Adrian Gonzalez, Director of Logistics Executive Council, ARC Advisory Group. "The role of compliance, content, and connectivity is clearly evident in the entry validation process, which is why this solution from Integration Point is well-aligned with customer requirements."
