Tariff Margin Analysis Screen
Trade Recovery Data gives import/export-heavy companies a fixed-fee $1,500 first read on duty cost, record traceability, and specialist-readiness. No source files in the public form. No brokerage. No refund guarantee.
Sales-ready proof
The site now lays out the price, scope, sample output, security posture, operating boundaries, and purchase sequence up front. The goal is to make a serious CFO, controller, operator, or broker partner understand the screen without needing a trust-me sales call.

Proof path
Estimate whether tariff and duty exposure is large enough to justify the next step.
Check whether source records create a credible bridge between import cost and export activity.
Separate data-readiness work from legal, brokerage, classification, and claim-facing decisions.
Georgia trade corridor
The screen is built for companies where landed cost, broker records, warehouse movement, and finance review do not live in one clean system. It connects the boardroom question in Atlanta with the operating evidence moving through ports, suppliers, warehouses, and customer shipments.
Updated July 2026
The 2025-26 environment includes expanded trade-remedy attention, reciprocal-tariff actions, and continuing Section 301 activity. Importers remain responsible for reasonable-care treatment of applicable duties, and duty cost often lands inside COGS before finance has a clean view of materiality. This screen does not decide tariff applicability; it organizes the records needed before a qualified specialist conversation.

2-minute fit check
Answer five non-confidential questions. This does not submit data or gate access. It only gives a first read on whether a paid records screen is likely to be productive.
Complete the five questions to see the first-read result.
Source reality
Inventory, shipment, invoice, broker, and SKU records have to connect before a review is worth more time.
Margin model
Duty and tariff cost should be screened inside COGS before anyone talks about a claim or refund.
Review packet
The output is a disciplined packet of gaps, matches, stop conditions, and broker-review questions.
How the screen works
We map the record universe before source files move: broker entries, ACE exports, ERP fields, invoices, shipments, SKU files, BOMs, return logs, and destruction or replacement evidence. The goal is to know whether the company can name the data owners and date range.
The screen looks for practical bridges between import activity and downstream activity, such as SKU, item, invoice, shipment, lot, serial, or BOM keys. Weak matches are flagged as gaps, not forced into a claim narrative.
Duty and tariff costs are reviewed through a conservative COGS lens. The model asks whether the potential pool is large enough to justify a licensed specialist review after record gaps and stop conditions are considered.
The final packet separates usable records, missing records, match-rate limits, and specialist questions. It gives management a plain next step: proceed to licensed review, improve records first, or stop.
Illustrative only
This is a modeled example, not a client result. The company imports finished components, exports some replacement units, and has ERP, broker, and shipment records but inconsistent SKU bridges across systems.
| Record set | Reviewed | Matched | Screen note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Broker import lines | 14,800 | 5,620 | SKU key present but vendor naming varies. |
| Export shipment lines | 3,900 | 1,420 | Shipment numbers help, but date windows need review. |
| Replacement/RMA records | 1,100 | 430 | Promising subset; ownership and evidence path need cleanup. |
Verdict: go to licensed specialist review only after the company improves SKU normalization and confirms authority for source-file intake. No refund is assumed, promised, or represented by this screen.
What the screen produces

About the practice
The practice focuses on pre-claim organization: materiality, traceability, record ownership, and handoff readiness. It is designed to help operating companies avoid vague refund chasing and arrive at a clearer specialist conversation with facts, gaps, and stop conditions already separated.
