In recent years, starting with the previous administration, Trade Compliance took a front seat in the executive suite.  That suddenly put a spotlight on trade departments within companies as they sought to understand how certain trade policies were going to affect their business.

In this episode of Simply Trade, our guest, Gabrielle Griffith from BPE Global, explains how the role of trade compliance individuals were now part of conversations in company decisions.  As this started to fade with the current administration, Gaby explains how trade compliance can continue to have a voice and stay in front of executives when it comes to planning and making business decisions... ultimately helping the department with resources and making their job easier by obtaining continued support from the top level.

The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) was signed into law by President Biden in December 2021.  It went into effect on June 21, 2022.  With this new law, and together with Section 307, it has created some confusion and concerns with importers of items that may have been from or sourced somewhere in the supply chain from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR).

This second episode picks up with the process and steps you should follow when trying to comply with UFLPA.  We pick up the conversation with Amy Morgan of Altana AI, who provides experience on collecting supply chain information to help build trust through an automated solution.
