Assessment Tool
Export Logistics Readiness Assessment India
Logistics errors — wrong documentation, missed cut-offs, improper packing, or unreliable freight partners — cause delayed shipments, demurrage costs, and buyer complaints that permanently damage export relationships.
What this assessment measures
Freight forwarder quality and coverage, customs broker reliability and classification accuracy, export packing standards (ISPM 15, fumigation), shipping documentation completeness (bill of lading, certificate of origin, packing list, invoice), port of departure options, transit time competitiveness, and last-mile delivery to buyer.
Why it matters
Export logistics mistakes are visible and costly. A delayed container, a wrong HS code causing duty disputes at destination, or improper fumigation causing rejected consignments — all damage buyer relationships that took years to build. A systematic logistics readiness check prevents these failures before they happen.
The 6 dimensions we assess
- 1.Freight forwarder selection — capability, reliability, routing expertise
- 2.Customs broker quality — HS code accuracy, documentation completeness
- 3.Export packing standards — ISPM 15, fumigation, labelling requirements
- 4.Shipping documentation — BL/AWB, COO, packing list, commercial invoice accuracy
- 5.Port selection — JNPT, Mundra, Chennai, air cargo vs sea freight trade-offs
- 6.Transit time competitiveness — routing vs buyer lead time requirements
