Compliance Risk Self-Assessments

Evaluate Your Company’s
Compliance Risks—For Free

Ensuring compliance with U.S. trade and regulatory agencies is critical to avoiding penalties, shipment delays, and enforcement actions. Our free self-assessments help businesses identify potential compliance risks and take proactive steps to strengthen their regulatory standing.

Why Take an Assessment?

Staying ahead of compliance risks is essential for protecting your business. Taking a self-assessment can help you:​
  • Identify Potential Compliance Gaps - Uncover areas where your business may not be meeting regulatory requirements.
  • Minimize Risk Exposure - Reduce the likelihood of costly penalties, shipment holds, and enforcement actions.
  • Understand Regulatory Expectations - Learn how agencies like U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), and more assess compliance.
  • Be Proactive, Not Reactive - Address compliance risks before they become serious legal or financial issues. 

How It Works

  1. Select an Assessment - Choose the compliance area relevant to your business.
  2. Provide Your Information - Fill out a short form to access the assessment.
  3. Complete the Assessment - Answer a series of questions to gauge your compliance risk.
  4. Get Your Results – Receive an instant compliance risk rating and insights into your compliance status.
  5. Take Action – Schedule an intake meeting with our office.

Why Compliance Matters

Non-compliance with U.S. regulatory requirements can have severe finachial, operational, and reputational consequences. Here's what's at stake:
  • Hefty Fines & Penalties - Violations can result in penalties reaching into the millions of dollars, depending on the agency and severity of the offense. Failing to comply with customs, export controls, or sanctions regulations can cripple a business financially.
  • Supply Chain Disruptions – Non-compliance may lead to shipment holds, product seizures, and import/export bans, causing delays that disrupt operations and damage client relationships.
  • Increased Government Scrutiny – High-risk businesses may face audits, investigations, or enforcement actions, leading to increased legal costs and operational headaches.
  • Reputation & Business Impact – A compliance failure can harm your brand’s reputation, leading to lost customers, reduced business opportunities, and damage to relationships with suppliers and regulators.
Staying compliant is not just about following the rules—it’s about safeguarding your business from unnecessary risks.
