Electrocomponents Expands Amber Road Solution to Integrate and Automate its Export Management
finance.yahoo.com

Electrocomponents has been using the Amber Road on-demand solution for restricted party screening since 2011. This new implementation vastly expands the Electrocomponents Group’s trade management reach and capabilities, enabling automated product classification, license determination and management, and landed cost analysis. With these new capabilities, the existing automated restricted party screening will become a seamless part of the Group’s overall trade management processes. The full Amber Road solution will be integrated with the Electrocomponents ERP system and deployed across the global supply chain.

Oxford, UK-headquartered Electrocomponents, with its well-known RS Components and Allied Electronics brands, is a world-leading engineering products distributor.

Marine Harvest Rapidly Ramps-up Restricted Party Screening with Automated Amber Road Solution
finance.yahoo.com

With international authorities imposing more, and increasingly tough, trade regulations, Marine Harvest realized it was time to upgrade from manual to automated screening. In particular, with Russia specifically targeted for additional sanctions and scrutiny, the Oslo-based company moved quickly to boost its compliance assurance.

Amber Road’s market leadership and its comprehensive screening coverage encompassing over 300 restricted party lists from government institutions worldwide were key factors in the decision. Additionally, the high degree of automation, with 24/7 monitoring of trading entities, meant that Marine Harvest could dramatically upgrade its screening capabilities without adding manpower.

Johan Sørensen, manager of business systems at Marine Harvest, said, “Amber Road provides a straight forward and fast solution to screen our customers and suppliers, providing the security that we don’t do business with anyone on a denied party list. Additionally, the US banks we work with require us to screen our suppliers and customers in order for us to make use of their financial services.”

Tüpras cited ease of use and comprehensive functionality as the primary reasons it selected Amber Road’s Restricted Party Screening solution. The solution enables Tüpras to screen trading partners against restricted party, sanctions and embargoes lists. It also provides automated monitoring against changes on existing and newly added lists. Additional factors in Tüpras’ decision included standard support of automated notifications and escalation scenarios, and extensive audit trail and reporting capabilities. Since Amber Road’s Restricted Party Screening module is an integrated part of its broader Export On-Demand solution, Tüpras also has the ability to integrate additional functionality down the road, with minimum changes to existing configurations.

AMBR put in another quarter of 30+% top-line growth and held its now expected rate of rolling 12 months revenue retention of over 100%.

AMBR should be Adjusted EBITDA positive as of Q3.

AMBR made trend line progress towards becoming FCF positive for the first time in company history but is still 4 quarters away in my opinion.

Acteon Group Standardizes on Amber Road for Restricted Party Screening
finance.yahoo.com

Headquartered in Norwich, UK, the Acteon Group brings together a broad range of companies, mainly in the oil, gas and renewables industries. One of the biggest firms in the subsea services industry, Acteon has over 35 different company sites. It offers worldwide services with and has thousands of trading partners.

Until now, the individual Acteon branded services tracked and managed their trading partners independently and mostly manually. But with increasingly tough regulations and sanctions being imposed by multiple authorities around the world - including recent sanctions on Russia that specifically target oil and gas industry-related equipment - the need for a reliable, automated solution to track regulations, evaluate trading partners, and ensure a standardized compliancy process for the entire group became acute.

“We were looking for an auditable restricted party screening solution that could be applied across all of our subsidiaries,” said Mike Pay, the Head of Compliance for the Acteon Group. “While the primary goal was to improve compliance, we also saw the opportunity to reduce operational costs by replacing manual processes. Amber Road fit the bill.”

Pay noted that the positive experience of Seatronics, a Houston-based Acteon Group company already using Amber Road for restricted party screening, was a strong selling point. “Amber Road will be one of the few IT-based systems that we deploy across the entire Acteon group,” Pay said. “We had to make the right decision. We also needed a solution that could support our needs in the future for things like product licensing and documentation management, for which Amber Road also has solutions.”

Azelis Chooses Amber Road Solution to Help Ensure Compliance with Export Restrictions in Increasingly Regulated Environment
finance.yahoo.com

Azelis, a top global specialty chemicals distributor, has signed a worldwide contract with Amber Road for an automated restricted party screening solution.

After a decade of rapid international growth, Azelis today combines more than 37 specialist distribution companies in a single organization serving the worldwide life sciences and industrial markets. It conducts around 430,000 export transactions annually with more than 50,000 trading partners around the world. The management complexity created by the sheer volume of trade transactions is exacerbated by the increasingly tough regulatory environment governing international trade.

As a group active with companies throughout Europe, Asia, Australia and Canada, Azelis must take special care not to ship products to any entities present on restricted party lists maintained by countries that host its network companies. In addition, due to contractual requirements from some of Azelis’ United States-based suppliers, Azelis also must comply with restricted party lists in the US and with embargoes imposed by the US Government. Without a comprehensive and automated system, tracking fast-changing regulations on a global basis and continually evaluating existing and new trading partners is extremely difficult.

Realizing it needed to prevent illegal transactions and protect itself from potential fines, penalties and sanctions, Azelis sought an automated screening solution that would also reduce operational costs by eliminating time-intensive manual screening processes. In searching for the right solution, Azelis emphasized high accuracy and a low rate of false positives as key requirements.

Ultimately, Azelis chose the Amber Road restricted party screening solution, in large part because of its deep trade content, ease of use and comprehensive functionality.
