Import software platform: Amber Road, a
developer of cloud-based global trade management (GTM) solutions, has expanded its
software platform for the new import filing requirements under the U.S. Automated
Commercial Environment (ACE) Single Window
for Partner Government Agencies (PGAs).
U.S. Customs and Border Protection is leveraging the ACE system to implement the concept of the Single Window with all PGAs. As
a result, importers are now required on behalf
of these PGAs to declare, and file, potentially
hundreds of new data elements with Customs
at the time of admission into the U.S.
Amber Road’s GTM platform is designed
to manage all of the information required
by Customs for a given country, both the
supply chain information and the country-and commodity-specific import information.
Import admissibility “routines” can then examine the import transaction with Amber Road’s
Global Knowledge trade content database to
determine whether a government agency has
reporting requirements for Customs purposes
and decide which data elements are required.
The Amber Road Import solution then automatically combines master data with the supply
chain transaction to create an electronic version
of the Customs transaction ready to be filed
with Customs.
Recent enhancements to the Amber Road
Import solution focus on more efficiently managing the rapid changes in PGA-specific reporting requirements. Without the need to utilize
technical resources for assistance, the solution’s new data management tools allow compliance managers to quickly identify changes
and apply mass-updates to their products and
transactions accordingly. (Amber Road, www.

Each workstation is equipped with a QubeVu
DimStation, which includes a supporting pole

48-inch-long workstations that hold and power

other dimensioning units on the market, the
company says. (Newcastle Systems Inc., www.

Hydrostatic-drive forklift: Komatsu Forklift U.S.A.
has launched the FH- 2 hydrostatic-drive forklift to

hydraulic system (CLSS).
All FH- 2 Series models come standard with Komtrax, the company’s GPRS/GPS
wireless information delivery and tracking system. Komtrax tells operators where
their machines are, what they are doing, and how they are doing it, providing
total fleet management capabilities for improved fleet utilization, reduced downtime, and lower operating costs. (Komatsu Forklift, www.kfiusa.com)
Ground cargo service to Mexico: Logistics services provider Pilot Freight Services
now offers ground delivery service from the U.S. to three airports in Mexico for
distribution throughout the country.
East Coast freight will be routed through Dallas/Fort Worth, and West Coast-originating freight will move through Los Angeles, Lima, Pa.-based Pilot said.
Service is available on weekdays at Guadalajara, Mexico City, and Monterrey,
Pilot said.
Most U.S.-Mexico goods move on the ground rather than by air because it is
cheaper and the goods move over relatively short distances, meaning that deliveries can still be made quickly.
Pilot said it can consolidate cargo from various stations across the U.S. to the
closer of the two gateways, and then move it through Mexico to the final destination within the country. (Pilot Freight Services, www.pilotdelivers.com)
