ECIA GIPC Re-Launches Business Operations Working Group
ECIA’s Global Industry Practices Committee (GIPC) has announced it will re-launch the Business Operations Work Group to, among other things, improve the process of capturing all pertinent information within the ASN (Advance Ship Notifications). The accuracy and consistency of these digital documents are increasingly important with tariff-related requirements that have added complexity for component manufacturers and distributors.
