Supply Chain Security w/ C-TPAT and AEO Programs

Supply Chain Security


Trade Innovations is acutely qualified to assist your company with creating or maintaining a C-TPAT or AEO program. Both Trade Innovations Principals were instrumental in assisting the legacy U.S. Customs Service to formulate the incentive based public-private partnership concept that became the basis for the C-TPAT. In the months following the creation of C-TPAT, Trade Innovations Principals trained the initial deployment of CBP Supply Chain Security Specialists on commercial supply chain operations. Trade Innovations Principal Michael Laden continues to influence the formation of the global standard for supply chain security through his appointment to the prestigious SAFE Working Group of the World Customs Organization (WCO) in Brussels, Belgium.


The Principals of Trade Innovations also have extensive practical experience in creating, implementing, and managing the C-TPAT program of a top three importer in the United States. The supply chain they managed spanned over 84 countries and included relationships with more than 15,000 suppliers. This importer was one of the original seven Charter C-TPAT Members and helped launch the program in April of 2002.

Let Trade Innovations help you visualize the task and optimize your supply chain security with a diagnostic.
