A typical Purchase Order (PO) has a value of $50,000, involves 28 people, eight departments, seven business entities, and takes four months to complete. Without an IMS, this process is inefficient, opaque, and high risk. An IMS gives importers back the control they need to improve their processes, build in automation, and gain valuable insights that enable them to save time and money.
So why do you need an IMS?
Importing is a costly, time consuming, disconnected, and largely manual business. An IMS connects, automates, simplifies, and improves the entire process. The benefits are many, however the results are improved time to market, reduced costs, and increased sales.
