Tracking Trade Agreements

Current Situation

The global economy has gone digital. Today, information, products, and services move across political boundaries very frequently. Many governments have responded to these changes by seeking to control trade in disruptive ways, while others fail to invest in technologies needed to monitor and report on two-way trade movement.

Goals and Objectives

Many countries seek to deploy technology that tracks and reports on the movement of goods in a standard way, and which allows manifests to be filled out, transmitted, tracked, and confirmed at both ends.

Technology Deployed

Smart forms, cloud-based reporting applications, Big Data and analytics with prepackaged reports and dashboards

Use Case Summary

The end goal is to promote digital transformation to help use real-time data to assess compliance in an accurate and transparent environment. Results can be monitored by government officials, multilateral agencies, and “socially responsible” organizations or investors.
