Companies increasingly manage their import process with cross-functional teams consisting of sourcing, logistics, and finance. Strong process interdependencies have rendered a functional silo approach inefficient and error-prone. All three functions touch the same partners and require the same data. Decisions in any one area have a significant impact on the others. The GT Nexus portal supports the cross-functional import team: Trade and logistics processes can be executed on one platform, synchronizing data exchange, partner integrations and documents across all functions.
