• FTA & Origin Support: Assist in the verification of Rules of Origin documentation and support FTA studies to optimize regional duty costs.
• Tool Testing: Support the rollout of new digital tools by performing user-acceptance testing and identifying areas where manual inputs can be replaced by data feeds.

• Research Assistance: Gather regulatory info and data for new trade lane projects or tax optimization initiatives.
