No ambiente empresarial em constante mudança dos dias de hoje, as empresas enfrentam inúmeros desafios. As vantagens tradicionais, como as economias de escala, são cada vez mais prejudicadas por interrupções na cadeia de abastecimento ou efeitos dinâmicos de rede, ameaçando posições seguras no mercado.

Nenhuma cadeia de suprimentos é 100% à prova de crises. Isso é demonstrado pelas consequências do conflito entre a Rússia e a Ucrânia. Em fevereiro de 2022, a situação política entre os dois países se agravou a tal ponto que a Rússia invadiu a Ucrânia militarmente. Isso está causando, além de sérios problemas humanitários, consequências econômicas que estão sendo sentidas na Europa, nos Estados Unidos e em outras regiões. Cada vez mais cadeias de suprimento globais estão em risco de colapso, tanto pela perda de parceiros comerciais ucranianos quanto pelas sanções internacionais contra a Rússia e empresas russas.

Networking is playing an increasingly important role in world trade. To stay on top of these dynamic developments and identify opportunities, it is important to monitor import, export and shipping trends. You can gain knowledge from a variety of sources, but trade data analysis is the key tool to make the right decisions.

Unexpected challenges can hit global trade at any time. This was proven once again by the “Ever Given” accident. Since Tuesday night, the container ship has been blocking the Suez Canal and thus one of the world's most important trade routes. Already strained supply chains are further strained, while an end to the blockade is not in sight.

With the rise of the New Economy, global economy moved away its focus from sheer mass production to service-oriented trade. Especially intermediaries pushed into the markets to buy and sell without adding value. With “Go Direct” ABRAMS world trade wiki offers the tool to clear your supply chain from unnecessary middlemen.

The focus of every company should always be on retaining existing customers and winning new customers, because this ensures sustainable company growth. Thanks to new technologies such as high-performance databases and globally available data, new customers can now be identified by analyzing trade data. With the help of appropriate tools, customers are much easier to find than many company managers think.

At the CiMi.CON, Europe's leading conference for the corporate intelligence community, the ABRAMS Group won first place in the coveted "Insights to Action" award with its business intelligence online based knowledge portal ABRAMS.wiki.
