Business Value of Global Trade Management Solutions

Global Trade Management (GTM) software solutions allow companies to automate import and export processes, provide higher visibility to goods at supplier sites and in-transit materials, address compliance issues, and improve their inventory management capabilities. These benefits have a positive impact on a company’s bottom line. While a GTM solution can be of value to companies involved in global trade, the expected benefits must be compared to the initial installation and ongoing costs in order to understand the net impact. This paper presents a comprehensive model for quantifying the net benefits of a GTM solution.
