January 18, 2024The #1 Thing (and two more) Customs Will Focus on This Year - Are You Ready? - With Amy Magnus and Cindy Allen
The future of trade is all about data - how we collect it, share it, and use it to both facilitate trade and enforce regulations. This was a key topic of discussion on today's episode featuring trade experts Amy Magnus and Cindy Allen.
Focus on Data and Entities
The guests agreed that in 2024, data and understanding entities (importers, manufacturers, etc.) will be hugely important. "It's really going to come down to data," said Amy Magnus. She explained how collecting and intelligently using data from all entities in a supply chain can help customs inspect high-risk shipments while expediting low-risk ones.
Piloting New Approaches
New pilots are exploring how to share data earlier in the trade process using distributed ledger technology. This could provide visibility to all parties and satisfy enforcement needs upon arrival. Experts recommended importers get involved in pilots like the Global Business Identifier to help shape solutions.
Addressing Agency Requirements
The podcast also touched on challenges different agencies like FDA pose with various import data needs. As Amy Magnus noted, meeting all these requirements currently relies on outdated paper-based systems, highlighting the need for automation.
Takeaways for Importers
Key advice for importers included understanding supply chain risks through tools like mapping, hiring compliance experts, and engaging with trade associations like nei.org, icpa.com and alex.org to stay informed on upcoming regulations. The discussion provided actionable insights on facilitating trade in line with increasing enforcement trends.

January 16, 2024Simply Trade [Events]: Nearshoring Your Way to Savings with Gena Mann and Hunter Bell
As businesses face ongoing challenges from inflation, workforce shortages and economic uncertainty, many are looking at new strategies like nearshoring to help cut costs and gain efficiencies. This episode of the Simply Trade podcast explored how implementing a nearshoring solution with the right partner can provide numerous benefits.
Defining Nearshoring
Nearshoring refers to outsourcing certain business functions to locations closer to home, such as countries in Latin America. This provides advantages over traditional offshoring models that send work farther abroad. Nearshore locations like Mexico and Colombia offer similar time zones and easier travel compared to places like India or the Philippines.
Functions to Consider
Common roles companies nearshore include customer service, dispatching, billing/invoicing and other administrative tasks that can be performed remotely. This allows existing employees to focus on higher-level, strategic work rather than getting bogged down in repetitive processes.
The Value of Partnerships
Guests Hunter Bell and Gena Mann from Lean Solutions Group stressed that finding an experienced partner is key to success. Their company helps set up client operations nearshore, supplying a ready talent pool for roles like transportation tracking. This scalability proved vital during COVID spikes when demand fluctuated wildly.
Learning from Industry Leaders
Attendees heard about the Nearshore Experience conference being held February 12-13, 2022 in beautiful Cartagena, Colombia. This event hosted by Lean Solutions Group brings together over 600 clients and other businesses. The agenda includes panels, networking and speakers addressing current challenges. It's a chance to gain insider insights from companies already implementing nearshoring strategies.
Takeaways
In summary, leveraging the right nearshoring partner can optimize workflows, boost cost-savings and help organizations weather economic storms. The conference provides an immersive learning experience for any company exploring ways to future-proof operations through strategic outsourcing.
