ExportFlow

Find the problem before the container leaves Nigeria.

ExportFlow reads your shipment documents, checks that they agree with each other and with what the destination market requires, and tells you exactly what it could not check.

One shipment, end to end

  1. PlanDeclare the shipment before the documents exist
  2. ReadinessWhat it must meet, and what is still outstanding
  3. DocumentsEverything the shipment is finally described by
  4. Document verificationDo they agree with each other
  5. Compliance verificationDoes the shipment meet the destination's rules
  6. DestinationCountry, port, and the authority that governs it

Two checks, not one

They fail for different reasons and they are never merged.

Document verification

Whether the paperwork is complete and consistent with itself.

  • A document that is missing, or is not the type it claims to be
  • Dates, quantities and descriptions that contradict each other
  • Identifiers and exporter details that do not match across documents
  • Certificate relationships that do not hold

Compliance verification

Whether the shipment itself satisfies the rules where it is going.

  • The commodity, its classification, and the market it is entering
  • Destination country, region and port, and the authority that governs each
  • Import, phytosanitary, food safety, packaging and traceability requirements
  • Every conclusion carried back to the passage and the source it came from

Two people use this, for two reasons

If you export the goods

You find out what the destination requires while you can still act on it.

  • Plan a shipment before the documents exist, and see what it must meet
  • Change the goods, the processing or the packaging while changing them is cheap
  • Know which certificates and tests to start now, not the week before sailing
  • A written record of what was checked, on the date it was checked

If you clear or forward it

You stop being the last person to discover a problem somebody else created.

  • Every document read and cross-checked before it reaches the desk
  • Contradictions named with the documents and the values that disagree
  • Requirements cited to the passage, so a query has an answer attached
  • One workspace per client, with the shipments kept apart

It tells you what it did not check

A clean result and an unchecked one are different answers, and this product will never show you one when it means the other. Where the evidence is not there, it says so — and the coverage register is public, so you can read the boundary before you trust it.
