CHAIN MANAGEMENT
SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
Supply chains are complex organisms that have many moving parts, inputs and connections. To operate efficiently and provide companies the chance to grow, it is important to look at places to save money without sacrificing compliance and performance.
Rate Auditing
Overcharges are a common concern in the industry, which is why our experienced team of auditors at ECX step in. With extensive experience, they meticulously examine air, ocean, truck, and warehousing rates to identify inconsistencies and guide you towards potential refunds, ensuring that you receive fair and accurate pricing for your logistics services.
Cargo Insurance
Air, ocean and truck carriers limit their liability, usually to less than the value of your cargo. Cargo insurance is a necessity, and our insurance carriers can work with you to provide a customized solution for your commodity, trade lanes and annual values.
Purchase Order Management
When a purchase order is placed days, weeks or months in advance, someone needs to monitor production. As the ship date gets closer, the cargo’s readiness will need to be confirmed. ECX stays in contact with buyers and sellers to keep cargo on time or provide the earliest notification of a late or missed delivery.
Traffic Control
Providing a centralized team to manage the complex multinational movement of a global supply chain is what we do best. Across countries, continents and time zones, ECX monitors 24 x 7 x 365 and reports regularly on statuses and manages exceptions.
Landed Cost Analysis
Combined with binding rulings, contract rates and monitoring currencies, a landed cost analysis helps Controllers and CFOs identify profitability and gross margin for shareholders and to price their product to the marketplace.
C-TPAT Validations
As a certified and validated member of C-TPAT, ECX can visit buyer and seller locations to conduct C-TPAT security audits and provide complete reports that can be easily uploaded to the C-TPAT web portal and aggregated as part of a company’s compliance program.
