How VSTA centralized its clients’ maritime imports and exports on a single platform
A web platform to manage assets and foreign-trade operations, from shipping notice to customs payment.
The maritime operations VSTA manages ran through emails, spreadsheets and documents scattered across importers, suppliers, customs brokers and warehouses. Nobody had a single view of each operation’s status, of customs entries about to expire or of goods in the warehouse, and errors in proforma data surfaced too late.
We designed and built the VSTA platform: import and export operations with traceable stages (transit, customs entry, deconsolidation, inspection, approval and payment), a wizard to create operations with supporting documents, a proforma pre-validator that cross-checks invoices, packing lists, bills of lading and purchase orders, a document repository per operation and per customs entry with letter generation, warehouse control with time limits, Excel-ready reports and notifications. With roles for importers, customs brokers and warehouses.
VSTA runs its clients’ foreign trade from one platform: every operation has a visible status, documents and owners, proforma errors are caught before reaching customs, and customs-entry reports are one click away.
