Re: [EDI-L] Generic Import Business Model

[William J. Kammerer]

Dinner and booze?  Why didn't you say that earlier? I know a guy who
likes dinners and booze. You need Robert "R.T."  Crowley, of Research
Triangle Software, Inc. in NC. This guy's seen it all and done it all
with respect to the "import game." He's so famous that he even appears
in online encyclopedias, like
http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/R.-T.-Crowley.   R.T. is at X12
today in Nashville, but I'm sure you can track him down somehow.

It is excellent for what it does, but it does not touch on imports.  I
dont need anything complex, but I do need something that shows the
communication (inc doc types) from start to finish.  NRF is also out.
What I need to do I guess is find someone who's been in the import game
for a long time, fly there and just pick their brain for a day or so.

Dinner and booze are on me if you are that person.

Subject: [EDI-L] Generic Import Business Model




I am looking for a generic business model showing import relationships
in retail.  Ideally, it would contain the following:

Offshore

1.  Manufacturer

2.  Expediter/Consolidator

Carrier

1.  US Customs

2.  Public Warehouse

Domestic

1.  De-consolidator

2.  Intermodal

3.  Retailer

Someone please throw me a bone.  Thanks, Jim
