Client Story Overview: Broadcom Corporation
Broadcom Corporation is a global leader in semiconductors for wired and wireless communications providing the industry's broadest portfolio of state-of-the-art system-on-a-chip and software solutions. Their explosive growth has been fueled through acquisition and organic growth, leading to the need for excellence in compliance, security and supply chain management.
In response, Broadcom staff reached out to Tectus. Tectus was already a trusted advisor, having successfully taken Broadcom through supply chain security initiatives. The services that Tectus then performed for Broadcom included:
- Assessment of current processes and procedures related to Export Compliance
- Recommendation of enhancements in recordkeeping, documentation, classification, governance, HR and IT processes
- Assistance on purchase terms and trade documentation formatting
- Development of partner vetting criteria, and then the management of an IT partner selection process to facilitate Denied Party and other export transaction screenings
- Integration of Broadcom’s ERP system with the hosted trade screening IT system
As Bruce Mizokami, Broadcom’s Director of Freight and Import/Export Compliance notes: “Tectus has proven to be an excellent partner in the growth of our security and compliance strategies. After taking the time to understand our business, Tectus led us through complex export and import compliance initiatives. They have successfully project managed the creation of processes and infrastructure to support governmental requirements which also meet our business needs. Tectus staff have been experienced, committed and smart, and done what is needed to help us be successful. We are pleased with the work Tectus has done and would recommend them to anyone looking to solve compliance or security initiatives.”
Tectus has gone on to support Broadcom with a number of other initiatives such as customs Broker selection and integration, and on site security audits. We can provide this same level of excellence to meet your needs.
