Odpowiedź na wzrost
Wraz z przyspieszającą globalizacją wszystkie sektory — zwłaszcza handel detaliczny, produkcja, FMCG oraz logistyka i transport — odnotowały gwałtowny wzrost i potrzebowały usprawnionego procesu obsługi formalności celnych i handlu międzynarodowego. Opóźnienia lub błędy w tych procesach mogą oznaczać duże straty finansowe, przestoje lub utracone szanse. CAS miał być odpowiedzią na tę potrzebę — platformą, która usuwa wąskie gardła, zapewnia zgodność z przepisami i wnosi niespotykaną dotąd efektywność do procesu celnego.
