Testimonials

"We are very satisfied with the services provided by Logistics and Compliance Specialists. They are knowledgeable about ITAR export process, deliver quality services, repond quickly to requests and take the initiative to provide valuable advice and guidance when appropriate."

"LCS has been a tremendous resource in helping our organization set up a reasonable export compliance program that allows us to manage export risk appropriately. They were extremely patient in helping us navigate through the processes with the Department of State and provided us with fact based solutions to our problems and concerns. In the event that our unique circumstances required additional investigation, LCS was always capable of getting proper documentation and feedback which allowed the concerns to be properly addressed. ITAR compliance is not an easy subject, but the experts at LCS successfully helped us navigate through the requirements and met our needs for export compliance."

"LCS has been a great help to our company. Their recommendations and suggestions to our needs with becoming ITAR compliant and the processing of our TAA's were very accurate and they knew exactly what steps we had to go through to be approved by the government. The consultants at LCS are not only very knowledgeable, but also provide very good service. We have never had such a reliable and satisfying partner!"

"To meet a business requirement, we searched for a consulting company to help us with ITAR compliance. After meeting with several consulting groups, we selected LCS. We were impressed with their knowledge, experience and presentation.

Since we are not familiar with the official ITAR, LCS helped us starting from the ground up. They managed our registration process with reasonable service fee. They developed an Export Compliance Manual with an emphasis on ITAR controls that met the DDTC Compliance Program Guidelines. Whenever we had questions or issues, they responded right the way. They even provided recommendations to our overseas operations when we were debating a TAA.

We are glad that we made a good business decision, having LCS to help us."

"The LCS Consultants are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. We sought their services to assist us in developing an ITAR compliance program in the most efficient and economical way possible. When we ran into a glitch with one of our license applications, they stepped right in and solved the problem. Having LCS on our side was a huge relief, since they are experts in their field. This allowed us to focus on our core business and let LCS deal with the ITAR related items."

"Faced with meeting ITAR requirements before we could ship to a customer we turned to LCS to guide us through the regulation maze. LCS proposed a two pronged strategy.

First, to meet our customer's pressing need for product we became ITAR compliant and obtained a multi-year export license. We shipped product enabling the customer to meet their pressing deadline as a supplier to the Lockheed Martin Aerospace F35/JSF program.

Second, following LCS's guidance we launched a Department of State Commodity Jurisdiction Request which ultimately relieved our company from being under ITAR regulations for our products. But with that ruling came the further need to undergo a review by the Department of Commerce which in time ruled again that our products do not fall under DOC licensing requirements. We can ship to any customer not blacklisted. For us that is 100% success.

Without LCS's knowledge, expertise and contacts we would not have been able to clearly determine that for our products neither ITAR nor EAR restrictions apply. Reasonable cost, strong advisory support, successful and timely results. Contracting with LCS for advisory support was a most positive and rewarding experience for our company."

"LCS is like having our own Compliance and Logistics team in-house. I did not have the resources, bandwidth or expertise to ensure we were compliant with EAR and ITAR regulations as well as Import regulations. We provided technical specifications, datasheets and Marketing data and LCS took care of the rest. They filed for Commodity Jurisdictions and Commodity Classification requests on our behalf. LCS created a product licensing matrix for each of our software and hardware products, making exporting simple for our Shipping personnel and more importantly ensuring compliance for the Company. We get all of our HTS numbers from LCS as well as help with valuation or origin issues on imports. When we have questions or issues that arise we utilize their excellent, responsive Help Desk service and get the right information, right now."

"The team at Logistics and Compliance Specialists did a super, and super fast, job of helping us obtain our French encryption import documents. It's a job we definitely could not have done on our own."

"When a large defense contractor engaged my company and told us we could have the contract if we were ITAR compliant, we had no idea what to do. Thank goodness LCS was there to assist. They managed our registration process, collected all the necessary information and expedited the registration using their excellent contacts within DDTC. Once we were registered they provided ITAR 101 training for my employees, developed letter of assurances for employees and suppliers and developed a Technology Control Plan that was approved by DDTC. Their work has allowed us to accept work with other defense contractors, which is greatly affecting our bottom line. We now use their helpdesk support services for any ITAR related questions or issues. They have provided an invaluable service to my company."

"Having taken one BIS course and attempting to deal with the various Export Regulations, I can't begin to tell you how happy we are to have found you! This is an area in which we would like to be competent (NEED to be competent) and LCS services have been invaluable. They helped us over the hump of excessive information, poorly written and hard to understand"

"Before we could be awarded a very large defense contract we needed to be ITAR compliant. No one in our company knew anything about the ITAR. Through a mutual contact we found LCS. They managed and expedited our registration process using their excellent contacts within DDTC. We received our applicant code in 2 weeks. They also provided ITAR training for my employees and developed letter of assurances and a Technology Control Plan to increase our due diligence in adhering to the ITAR. They have been a blessing to my company. I'm not sure where we would be without their services."

"LCS has provided us with outstanding customer service and their attention to our supply chain needs has proven them to be a reputable and reliable partner. Our business utilizes tankers as well as standard trucks. They sourced Tanker and Trucking partners and managed them from negotiation to coordinating moves and approving freight invoices. They sourced and identified a 3PL and developed a JIT program for our plant in ID. LCS managed the 3PL, the receipt and release process, setting mins/maxes and web inventory tools. They developed an automated reorder process for our JIT Materials that was one click and a release is sent to the supplier. Our plant is running so much more efficiently since LCS came on board. They take Lead Logistics Provider (LLP) to a new level. It is like having a logistics manager in our office at half the cost. They are reliable and always accessible."
