The Challenge

Delivering to their customers on time and in specification is most important for OCD. Many of their products are used for manufacturing food, beverage, and nutritional applications.

Having an easy-to-use export documentation service helps to ensure OCD is efficient in delivery to all its markets. The seamless transfer of digital documentation at the destination country assists the process, mitigating any delays due to errors with paperwork.

The Solution

OCD has been a long-time customer of TradeWindow Prodoc (Prodoc) and has moved through iterations of the software over the years, always commending how easy the training is. OCD has appreciated using an efficient solution to help the flow of their exporting processes.

Using Prodoc to generate export documents enables OCD to have accurate data sent to their customers without any risk of errors. This is especially important for commonly used documents like MPI Certificates or Certificates of Origin.

“It’s a very straight forward system that is simple and fast. We have a number of specific documents that are very detailed and can be raised in Prodoc without any error.”

– Anka Loncar, Supply Chain – Customer Support Manager

“The documents are accurate, timely and trusted, and most importantly this means our customers are happy.”
