Part 1
Course reading
A logistics executive coordinates the shipment, documents, carrier, customs and delivery promise. Explain how you choose a mode using urgency, cost, volume, product risk and reliability. For international trade, know that Incoterms allocate tasks, costs and risk between seller and buyer; they do not replace the sales contract or decide ownership by themselves.
Prepare an import or export document checklist suitable to the shipment: commercial invoice, packing list, transport document, certificate of origin where required, licences and customs declarations. Do not quote a customs rule as universal. Say that you verify the current requirement for the country, product and HS classification with the responsible broker or authority.
Use a delayed-shipment example. Show when you detected the risk, who you informed, the alternatives compared and how you protected the customer. Include a useful measure such as on-time delivery, freight cost per unit, demurrage or document-error rate.
