A Business Challenge ..

Cost: Historically with SAP, you first have the license cost, and then, a potentially large expenditure on the deployment, as well as needing to become solution experts to support post implementation. Winterhawk have removed the entire capital expenditure aspect, providing a Free deployment of SAP GTS & GTM with a then ongoing support service tailored to the size of your organization.

Software Purchase options

Available either On Premise (client hosted – perpetual license) or via Cloud for Global Trade Services (GTS) (SAP hosted – subscription license) and Global Trade Management (GTM) 


Solution Insight:  Trade Services & Trade Management

Organisations that trade globally have to juggle the import and export processes of their goods across dozens of different customs, compliance processes and a range of duties. This is further complicated when the cross-border supply processes are managed manually or through brokers, and master data is incomplete. It helps automate cross-border supply chains by automating and streamlining the trade processes. This allows organisations to control costs, ensure tariff and duty payments are accurate and reduce the risk of fines and penalties whilst clearing customs much faster.

Winterhawk Insight

Stephane Vitalis Brun,
Lead Architect

 

“For an organisation that’s trading internationally, there can be significant complexities and risks. Legal & Compliance (contracts, controls), Sourcing (import, export, duties, tariffs), Manufacturing, Finance (Reporting, Filing, Data Governance), Sales (Partner Screening, Embargo checks), Logistics (Trade documents, custom clearance) – it’s a long list!

Why not have one single global trade platform where you can automate compliance, optimise operational efficiencies and speed the supply chain?”
