India Origin Control Program

Your Shipment. Your Supplier. Our Control.

A managed service for overseas buyers, brands, buying houses and forwarders who source from India — one team holding the order from the supplier's floor to the pre-alert that reaches your agent.

How It Works

Eight Steps Behind Every Order

The same eight steps, in the same order, whoever the supplier is.

Most India-origin delays do not happen inside a step — they happen between two of them, when nobody owns the handover. The programme closes those gaps by giving every order the same route through our desk, from the day we take over your supplier list to the day the cargo departs.

  1. Step 1

    Supplier Onboard

    We take over your supplier list, confirm contacts and agree how every order will be reported.

  2. Step 2

    PO Control

    Each purchase order is logged with its buyer, supplier, quantity, ship-by date, destination and Incoterm.

  3. Step 3

    Production Follow-Up

    We chase the supplier for acknowledgement, production status and the confirmed ready date.

  4. Step 4

    Cargo Ready

    Cartons, gross and net weight, dimensions and CBM are declared and checked against the PO.

  5. Step 5

    Pickup

    Transport is planned from one or many suppliers, and cargo from several units is consolidated.

  6. Step 6

    Docs + Customs

    Invoice, packing list and export papers are verified, then the shipping bill is filed and cleared.

  7. Step 7

    Air / Ocean Freight

    Space is booked with the right carrier for your deadline and budget, and the cargo is handed over.

  8. Step 8

    Pre-Alert + Departure

    Departure is confirmed and a complete pre-alert goes to your destination agent with every document.

Every step becomes a dated milestone against the purchase order.

The Chain

Where We Sit in Your Supply Chain

Five parties, one file, and one of them answering for the whole of it.

You keep your supplier and you keep your agent at destination. What changes is the middle: instead of three parties emailing each other across time zones, one team at origin holds the order, the cargo and the paperwork, and reports to both ends.

  1. Buyer

    Your purchase order, your specification and the date the cargo has to land.

  2. Supplier

    The factory acknowledges the order, produces it and declares the cargo ready.

  3. AS Tradewings

    We hold the middle: chasing, checking, planning and reporting on every order.

  4. Logistics

    Pickup, consolidation, export documentation, customs and the air or ocean booking.

  5. Global Partner

    Your destination agent gets a complete pre-alert before the cargo departs.

Service Levels

Three Ways to Run It

Take the whole programme, or only the part you are missing.

Level 1

Basic Coordination

You stay in touch with the supplier. We take the cargo from ready to departed.

  • Pickup from the supplier, with consolidation if more than one unit ships
  • Export documentation checked before the shipping bill is filed
  • Customs clearance and carrier booking for the deadline you give us
  • Departure confirmation and a complete pre-alert to your agent

Best when your own team already manages the supplier and only needs the India freight leg handled properly.

Level 2

Full PO Management

Hand us the purchase order. We carry it from acknowledgement to departure.

  • Everything in Basic Coordination
  • Supplier onboarding, so every factory reports to one format
  • PO logged with buyer, supplier, quantity, ship-by date, destination and Incoterm
  • Production follow-up and a confirmed, re-confirmed cargo-ready date
  • Cartons, weights, dimensions and CBM checked against the order before pickup

Best when late acknowledgements and moving ready dates are costing you more than the freight does.

Level 3

India-Origin Control Tower

Your India desk, without an India office: every supplier, every order, one team.

  • Everything in Full PO Management, across your whole India supplier base
  • One reporting line for all orders, whichever city or factory they sit in
  • Exception management — delayed production, missing documents, quantity variance
  • Consolidation planning across suppliers, so shipments leave full and on time
  • A named contact who answers for the origin end of every file

Best when India is a sourcing base rather than a supplier, and nobody on your side wants to chase it daily.
