It is not unheard of to unknowingly fall prey to an internal Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). There is a reason why they are created so why veer off course? But the answer is simple: to protect your bottom line. This webinar will turn the microscope inwards to learn about your company’s unique process and determine efficient ways your bottom-line and cost-savings can be improved, while providing a lesson on compliance. For example: can we save more money if we did something a different way, is our current process the correct way of doing it, are our service providers consistent in application of HS codes, and if not, who is using the correct one? Subject matter includes using a FIRM report to find inconsistencies, analyzing documentation and best practices.
