FOR SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGERS
Tariff exposure lives at the portfolio level. You should see it that way.
One classification at a time is useful. The whole network on one screen is actionable. GingerControl gives supply chain leaders the altitude they actually need.
The starting point
Supply chain leaders read dashboards for everything except the line item that has moved fastest in the last two years: duty. Most teams still check tariff exposure one SKU at a time, one email at a time, one broker call at a time. GingerControl lets you ask portfolio-level questions in Parts Library, watch for the policy that moves your network with Compliance Radar, and get portfolio-level answers.
Jobs to be done
A day in the life, rewritten.
- 01
The situation
A new Section 301 list drops overnight. Three of your top-20 SKUs might be on it.
The job
Know, in the first hour of the day, exactly which products are affected and how much the landed cost moves.
With Ginger
Compliance Radar, in private beta, intersects the new list with the products you have already classified and lists the exact SKUs affected. One click opens them in Parts Library, where the updated tariff stack and the landed cost delta are already calculated. What changed, what it costs, what to do next, in one view.
- 02
The situation
The CFO wants to know what happens if you move 40% of sourcing from China to Vietnam.
The job
Give them a number that is not just unit cost, but real landed cost with the full tariff stack.
With Ginger
Parts Library models the shift across every affected SKU at once, applying the country-specific duty stack in parallel and quantifying the FTA preference in dollars where it applies. No spreadsheet gymnastics.
- 03
The situation
An executive asks for quarterly tariff exposure by product category.
The job
Produce the report in an afternoon, not a week.
With Ginger
Every product in Parts Library carries its current tariff stack and a Selection History of what you committed to. Group by category, export, done. When the strategy question is bigger than the report, Trade Advisory helps you read it.
The proof
What changes, in numbers.
Full tariff stack
applied across 200+ countries in parallel
MFN + Section 232 + Section 301 + Chapter 99 + Section 122, calculated side-by-side across your whole catalog in Parts Library, not one SKU at a time.
Private beta
personalized policy alerts matched to your real SKUs
Compliance Radar reads your stored classifications and flags the products affected when a policy lands, with an email digest for the team. Currently rolling out in private beta.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I compare landed cost across sourcing countries instead of one SKU at a time?
Compare them side by side in Parts Library, which lays your products against multiple origin countries in one N by M matrix and highlights the lowest landed cost per row. As a supply chain lead, you stop pricing exposure one SKU and one broker email at a time and see the portfolio on one screen. Each cell carries the full tariff stack, MFN plus Section 122, 232, 301, and Chapter 99, so the comparison is real landed cost, not unit price.
China vs Vietnam import duty: how do I see the real difference for my catalog?
Run both origins through Parts Library and it applies each country's full duty stack in parallel, then flags the lower landed cost. For your top SKUs this replaces guessing from a single broker quote with a per-product delta across the whole line. The Tariff Calculator covers 200 plus countries and auto-detects Section 232 metal content. Rates move often, so treat any figure as current only as of its calculation date and re-run when a new list drops.
Mexico vs China import duty: does moving to Mexico actually lower my landed cost?
It depends on the SKU, and Parts Library shows you which ones by modeling both origins together and quantifying any FTA preference in dollars through the FTA Compare Drawer. For a sourcing lead weighing a nearshoring move, the answer is rarely uniform, some products win, some do not. We give you the per-product picture and the dollar delta. We do not file the entry or claim the preference for you, your broker does that at entry.
How do I forecast tariff exposure by product line for the board?
Group your catalog by product line in Parts Library, where every SKU already carries its current tariff stack and a Selection History of what you committed to, then export. This turns a board request for exposure by category from a week of spreadsheet work into an afternoon. When the strategy question runs deeper than the report, Trade Advisory helps you read it, though note that is senior trade guidance, not legal counsel, and exposure shifts as rates change.
How do I model a China to Vietnam sourcing shift across every affected SKU at once?
Model it in Parts Library, which applies the country-specific duty stack to all affected SKUs in parallel and quantifies the FTA preference where it applies, so no spreadsheet gymnastics. If your CFO asks what happens when 40 percent of volume moves, you return real landed cost, not unit cost. The matrix shows the delta per product and the new lowest-landed-cost origin. It is a planning model, not a customs filing, execution still runs through your broker.
How do I know which of my products a new Section 301 list actually hits?
Compliance Radar intersects a new list against the products you have already classified and names the exact SKUs affected, then one click opens them in Parts Library with the updated stack and landed-cost delta already calculated. For a supply chain manager, that means knowing in the first hour what moved and what it costs. Radar is in private beta, so access is limited right now, and alerts support your judgment rather than replace a compliance review.
