The Scenario: Trade Policy in Turmoil
Three converging forces are making master data quality a boardroom-level concern
trending_up US-China Tariffs
Tariff rates of 7.5% to 25% on thousands of product categories covering hundreds of billions in annual trade. Multiple product lists, frequent revisions, and exclusion processes that require precise HS code classification.

The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism adds carbon-based surcharges on imported steel, aluminum, cement, fertilizers, and electricity. Requires emissions data traced to manufacturing origin — a new master data dimension.
6 sectors in scopegavel Section 301 & Beyond
Ongoing Section 301 reviews, universal tariff proposals, and retaliatory measures create a moving target. Organizations that can't rapidly recalculate landed costs face margin erosion and compliance penalties.
Rates change quarterlyMaster Data Domains at Risk
Four data domains that determine whether you can calculate, optimize, and comply with tariff requirements
Product Classification (HS Codes)
The linchpin of every tariff calculation
- check_circle 6-digit HS codes (international standard)
- check_circle 10-digit HTS codes (US-specific duty rates)
- check_circle Misclassification risk: 0% vs 25% on similar items
- check_circle 15-30% of product records have classification gaps
Country of Origin
Not where the supplier is — where transformation occurs
- check_circle Substantial transformation rules per product type
- check_circle Multi-country supply chain origin tracking
- check_circle Trade agreement eligibility (USMCA, RCEP, EPA)
- check_circle Component-level manufacturing origin verification
Bill of Materials
Your true tariff exposure map
- check_circle Component-level cost and origin data
- check_circle Multi-level tariff accumulation analysis
- check_circle Sourcing alternatives for tariff optimization
- check_circle Landed cost waterfall calculations
Supplier Master Data
The link between sourcing and compliance
- check_circle Manufacturing locations per component
- check_circle Free trade zone and bonded warehouse status
- check_circle Preferential rate eligibility certificates
- check_circle Denied party screening and export controls
