Choice Logistics assists with export compliance

Choice Logistics assists with export compliance Choice Logistics, a specialist in providing logistics services for “mission critical parts,” said it is offering a new service to help clients comply with U.S. Commerce and Treasury departments regulations for exporting high-tech equipment and related components.
   As part of the 'Denied Party Screening' service, Choice screens each export shipment against two lists consisting of various denied entities and parties, as well as embargoed countries. Choice has plans to expand the program, and will ultimately conduct comprehensive global compliance screening of more than 70 lists worldwide.
   'Export compliance is an emerging issue that is gaining increasing significance in the day-to-day operations for many of Choice's clients,' said Michael Notarangeli, vice president of field operations. 'Since global mission-critical service parts management depends on reliability and efficiency, our role is to help clients navigate these complex regulations, and educate them as new requirements emerge. We believe this service will be a tremendous resource to avoid legal entanglements and stiff financial penalties.'
