← Back Contractor Insights Trade Compliance Across Your Supply Chain: A Complimentary Two-Part Webinar Series October 22, 2026 Complimentary Two-Part Webinar Series Sponsored by Barnes & Thornburg Global supply chains move goods, technology, and data across borders every day, and each crossing carries legal risk. Tariffs and trade remedies keep changing. Forced labor enforcement is growing, and export controls and sanctions are getting more complex. Together, these pressures make trade compliance a core business concern for government contractors, importers, and exporters. Upcoming Complimentary Webinars Register for Session 1: November 19 Register for Session 2: December 15 Each session requires a separate registration. Attendees are encouraged to participate in both. Why Is Trade Compliance Important for Government Contractors? For government contractors, importers, and exporters, managing global supply chain risks is an important part of maintaining compliance. From changing tariff requirements and forced labor restrictions to export controls and sanctions, organizations must understand how trade regulations affect their operations. Identifying potential compliance gaps and establishing effective internal procedures can help organizations reduce exposure, demonstrate due diligence, and strengthen their approach to managing trade risks. What Will This Two-Part Trade Compliance Webinar Series Cover? This two-part webinar series gives you a practical framework for finding and managing those risks. Session One maps the import and export issues that matter most. It covers tariffs, antidumping and countervailing duties, forced labor import bans under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, restricted party screening, deemed exports, and core obligations under the ITAR and EAR. Session Two moves from spotting issues to solving them. It offers practical guidance on effective sanctions screening, supply chain protocols that hold up under government scrutiny, and building or strengthening an import or export compliance program. Whether you are setting up a compliance function for the first time or improving an established program, this series will help you see where your organization is exposed. You will also come away with concrete steps to reduce risk, show due diligence, and turn compliance into a competitive advantage. Attendees are encouraged to join both sessions, since Session Two builds directly on the foundation laid in Session One.
