Trade Intelligence & Innovation

Trade intelligence is becoming the backbone of effective global trade and environmental tax compliance. As regulatory requirements increase and data volumes grow, companies need reliable digital structures, automated controls, and integrated processes that support efficient, accurate, and audit‑ready compliance functions.

Our trade intelligence and innovation offering is unique because it connects the full spectrum of trade and environmental requirements. We integrate customs, export control, and green tax processes into a unified digital operating model that supports transparency, cost optimisation, and long term compliance maturity.

Our Trade Intelligence & Innovation Services Portfolio

Digital Trade Compliance Operating Model

We help organisations redesign their end to end digital compliance landscape across customs, export control, and green taxes.

Our services include:

  • Assessment of the IT and data landscape for trade compliance master data
  • Standardisation of data including HS classification, ECCN, origin, and valuation
  • Selection and implementation support for trade compliance systems
  • Design of the global operating model including roles, processes, RACI and governance structures

This creates a resilient and scalable foundation for digital compliance across all topics.

Global Trade Watch Tower

We help you develop digital risk and opportunity solutions that enhance compliance, reduce manual effort, and enable real time decision making. 

Our services include:

  • Digital risk mapping across countries, products and supply chain processes
  • Automated tariff checks and calculation support
  • Dashboards and KPIs for compliance, risk monitoring and audit readiness
  • Consolidation of import and export declaration data from internal systems and external brokers

These tools help organisations understand and manage risk proactively and consistently.

Declaration Data Screening and Audit Readiness

Organisations often manage large volumes of declarations from multiple systems and brokers. We consolidate and assess this data to improve accuracy and reduce audit exposure.

Our services include:

  • Consolidation of declaration data from internal and external sources
  • Automated screening for errors, inconsistencies, and duty optimisation opportunities
  • Pre audit assessments to identify potential findings before authorities do
  • Review of duty payments, tariff codes, origin decisions and valuation elements
  • Recommendations for long term process and data improvements

This results in improved accuracy, reduced costs, and stronger audit preparedness.

 

Digitalisation of Green Tax Management Processes

We support companies in designing and implementing digital structures for environmental taxes and emissions related obligations.

Our services include:

  • Impact assessments based on the existing data landscape
  • Design and implementation of data strategy and digital tools for CBAM, ETS, plastic taxes, energy taxes and other green tax obligations
  • Digitalisation of supplier emission rate calculations and CO₂ certificate management
  • Forecasting tools for certificate procurement and cost planning
  • Ongoing enhancement of digital solutions in line with regulatory updates

This ensures companies are equipped with data driven capabilities to meet future environmental reporting demands.

Digitalisation of Customs Procedures and Cost Optimisation

We help clients transform their customs operations through digital automation and data led optimisation.

Our services include:

  • Automation of customs declaration processes and special procedures including IPR, OPR and bonded warehousing
  • Digital solutions to support AEO readiness and ongoing compliance
  • Duty and tax optimisation scenarios supported by analytics including FTA usage, valuation and origin structuring
  • Integration with brokers, forwarders and customs authorities such as electronic filing and API connections

These solutions enable efficient operations, accurate data flows and significant cost savings.

Complementary Global Trade Services

Our digitalisation offering can be combined with our broader advisory and operational support across:

  • Global Trade Advisory for strategic alignment and governance
  • Trade Management Consultancy to integrate digital and operational processes
  • Health Checks to assess readiness for automation and data integrity
  • Audit Support to strengthen controls and demonstrate compliance
  • Technology Advisory for tool selection, integration and optimisation

This creates a unified digital ecosystem that supports all trade and environmental compliance activities.
