Your service-level agreements (SLAs) often require you to ship replacement products across borders and store them in Forward Stocking Locations (FSLs) close to your customers. Moving your parts across the globe can be a risky business, and a single error can be costly. With a high focus on trade regulations and as a leader in the service parts industry for 40 years, Flash Global ensures that thousands of shipments move across the globe, in compliance with all applicable import and export laws.
Global Trade Compliance Solutions
When you’re looking to grow service logistics capabilities with a partner who is solely focused on time-sensitive service parts solution – Flash is the one to trust.
We take trade compliance very seriously and as an extension of our team, our global trade compliance program offers a strong combination of processes, technology, and people who work around the clock to ensure your spare parts move across international borders seamlessly.
Global Trade Compliance: It’s All About Managing Risk
One misstep in product classification, valuation, licensing, paperwork or any number of country-specific regulations and your shipment gets buried in customs purgatory in some faraway land for weeks or even months. Meanwhile, your customers get edgy as they wait for the spare parts they need. Understandably so. Downtime is a killer of revenue and your company’s reputation. The price of noncompliance most certainly will hit a lot closer to home, too, in the form of hefty fines, a possible ban from shipping anything anywhere, or worse — are you ready to trade your corner office for a prison cell? It could happen to you and your company, but it doesn’t have to. You need a partner who understands the stakes and the challenges you face. You need Flash Global. We handle multiple aspects of global trade compliance and ensure your shipments move across borders in line with all regulations. Always.
