AEB tailors free roadshow to aerospace and defence businesses

ROYAL LEAMINGTON SPA, U.K. - Jan. 18, 2016 - PRLog -- Export control compliance is a challenging task, particularly for aerospace and defence businesses. To support companies in this sector, AEB, a leading provider of global trade and supply chain management software solutions, is organising a roadshow that kicks off on 9th February 2016 in Warwick. Registration is open on www.aeb.com/uk/events/aerospace-defence-roadshow-registration.php.

Successful export control compliance programmes include many aspects. They affect all processes, divisions, and teams within a company and also stretch far beyond the boundaries of a business to include suppliers, partners, and customers. Regulatory requirements from national, EU, and US authorities must be considered.

The ongoing U.S. Export Control Reform (ECR) significantly adds to the challenge, as it involves various items moving from control under International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) to control under Export Administration Regulations (EAR). This presents massive changes to existing export control processes, especially in the aerospace and defence industry.

In order to support the industry in achieving and maintaining export control compliance, AEB provides automated solutions which can secure businesses and increase their efficiency in a sustainable way. As part of its export control awareness initiatives, AEB is hosting a free roadshow highlighting solutions for different areas of compliance throughout 2016. The following two events are now open for online registration:

- Tuesday, 9th February 2016 in Warwick
- Thursday, 11th February 2016 in London Heathrow

Early bookings are recommended as seating is limited to enable participants to share and discuss their individual challenges. Topics will include:

Export licence management
Efficient management of all relevant data for applicable licences including data integration in customs and commercial documentation, temporary licences, restrictions, decrementations, and more.

Technology transfers management
Transparent management of technology transfers with flexible options to specify activities relating to customers, prospects, products, dates, etc., including web-based access to enable entire organisational networks to benefit from the solution.

EAR and ITAR management
Comprehensive management of US export controls and all relevant EAR and ITAR licences, including revision control to support General Correspondences, a "three stock process" for decrementation, additional data such as USML and ECCN, and more.
