For companies that already have a foreign trade department and want it reviewed.

What it covers
We review what you already have and set down in writing what to improve.
- Advice on processes and documentation
- Route and cost optimisation
- Regulation and logistics strategy
- Review of existing operations, with what can be improved set down in writing
Most overspend is not in the freight
It is in the storage nobody planned for, the classification corrected too late and the route chosen out of habit. None of them shows up on a freight quote.
Reviewing an operation means looking at the whole chain and saying where money is being left behind, with the numbers of that operation and not a sector average.
Our stated goal is 5PL: designing and running the entire chain. We are not there yet; it is what we are building towards.
How it runs
Three steps, and the first one is listening to how you operate today.
We map the current operation
What you move, from where, how often and who runs it today. Without this, any recommendation is generic.
We find where it leaks
Cost, time and risk points, with the data of your operation and not a sector average.
We stand beside the change
We set down in writing what to change and support your team while they do it.
Tell us what you need to move
Origin, destination and what you are shipping. We answer with a proposal about your operation, not about a generic example.
