BAD DATA AS A RISK FACTOR

SEIA PERCEIVE for Data Quality Improvement & Bad Data Cleanup

Bad data quality is often seen as hinderance to using trade tools. We hear the adage "Garbage in-Garbage out", but when evaluating compliance Risk Exposure for the company, the bad data is often the risk that needs to be captured. 

Trade Compliance Relies on Data

Trade Compliance teams rely on the data that exists within the company's systems every day to make serious decisions related to customs classification, export controls licensing, sanctions screening, and tax declaration, among many others. 

Therefore, bad data is already having a significant impact on the operations of the company and that impact needs to be captured and assessed in the context of subject matter risk. 

So we should be asking:

"What kind of garbage do I have?"

"Where is my garbage data?"

"What garbage data is going to light on fire and burn down my compliance efforts?"

Not all bad data is equally bad

Master data clean-up projects often take years of tedious work, as they lack prioritisation and ​the format of results is difficult to work with. We can all agree that not all bad data will have the same impact on the risk exposure of the company. An incorrect classification on a product that has not been operationally live in years should not be the same level of priority as an incorrect classification on a current shipment going to a critical country.

SEIA is what we needed

VP Export Controls - DHL

I [was] fed up with looking at the same slides and templates. All they do is tell me what is currently happening. Where are trends, proactive risks, or anomalies?

Head of Export Controls & Customs - Siemens Healthineers

If we, for example, deliver dual use goods to a business partner in Turkey who is not the end customer, then I want to know it. And I want to know it in real-time. 

Former EMEA Export Controls Leader- Adient 

I want to see the risks that don't appear in my GTM system, what about the person that says "let's just call it something else" to avoid compliance. I want to see those risks.
