Our Supply Chain Security Evaluation Solution
Shipment Guard provides in-depth supply chain security evaluation via the web, and consulting assistance as required. Our professionals can provide team, group or individual training within an organization. With limited resources in most companies today, there is little time available to evaluate and re-evaluate supply chain security. Keep in mind that each product or part purchased can represent a unique supply chain. To offset this problem Shipment Guard can efficiently evaluate or validate all the parties involved in multiple supply chains. Shipment Guard can also be used to profile each separate supply chain.
Import supply chains extend from various overseas origins through to many US destinations. The US importer must know about the security of the goods and those who touch them, regardless of where title passes. The importer can exercise greater control over shipment security by purchasing ex-works or FOB origin. As an example: title transfer, as defined by terms of sale, can be a very effective method for the importer to control shipment integrity and security.
