Techshow
New import process flow proposal
With a long-standing presence in the air import sector, Célia Pinho, president and founder of ILS Cargo Group—a company specializing in aviation logistics—spoke during Techshow, a series of lectures held concurrently with Tubotech and wire, about the new import process flow proposal developed by the company.
According to Célia, the traditional workflow is functional, highly organized, and sometimes bureaucratic, which causes increased costs and delays in the clearance of the imported product. Therefore, she presented a proposal where all actors in the import process—from the manufacturer to the buyer—work together and exchange information.
“With everyone being informed at the same time, it is possible to anticipate steps, which ensures greater speed in customs clearance,” he explained. “With simultaneous visualization of the process, it is possible to know if the product has already been manufactured, allowing the company to prepare the paperwork and also the transport in advance. Even before the product arrives in Brazil, customs will already have the necessary information.”.
Célia also pointed out that this process will be even faster starting in 2020, when customs clearance will be done in the cloud.
