Unlock Better Outcomes in Supply Chain

U.S. weighted-average tariff rates spiked from ~2% at the start of 2025 to over 20% by April 11, the highest level in a century (McKinsey, 2025). Companies can reclaim up to 99% of import duties on qualifying goods when exported or destroyed, yet most struggle to identify and automate claims (EY, 2024). Fluctuating tariffs, siloed systems, and rigid ERP tools make it difficult to protect margins or avoid penalties. Manual compliance reporting compounds the challenge, introducing delays and risk when every decision window is shrinking.

Rigid planning tools

ERP systems can’t adapt to sudden tariff changes or run ad hoc what-if scenarios. Teams lack the agility to test sourcing shifts or respond to disruption.

Fragmented data

Supply, demand, and tariff data sit in disconnected systems. Without integration, teams waste days reconciling inputs before they can act.

Manual compliance

Reporting duties, classifications, and landed costs by hand increase errors and slow responses, exposing firms to fines and regulatory risk.

Limited visibility

Planning, sourcing, and logistics functions often act in silos. Without shared models, teams miss opportunities to align fast, coordinated responses.

 

How Alteryx One Powers This Use Case

Alteryx One brings tariff data, supply chain inputs, and compliance records into a single analytics canvas. Business users standardize customs documents, model what-if scenarios, and generate duty drawback claims without coding. Automated pipelines handle classification, landed cost estimation, and exception reporting, while audit trails and role-based access keep compliance intact. Shared workflows connect planning, sourcing, and logistics, so functions align quickly on tariff shifts or sourcing strategies. The result: fewer surprises, faster claims, and better protection of margin under volatile trade policies.

 

From Data to Business Value: How It Works

Your data inputs
  • Import entry summaries, invoices, CBP Form 7501, and duty payments.
  • Export records, shipping bills, and declarations.
  • Add ERP demand data, supplier files, and freight records.
  • Analyze based on inputs from structured and semi-structured sources, including spreadsheets and PDFs.
What Alteryx does
  • Automate extraction, validation, and cross-matching of import/export records.
  • Flag mismatches or missing documents before deadlines.
  • Build tariff impact models, landed cost estimates, and supplier scorecards.
  • Provide audit-ready workflows that adapt to new rules and global trade changes.
How it works for you
  • Analysts and planners test sourcing shifts, supplier risk, or routing changes in minutes.
  • Compliance teams generate accurate, audit-ready tariff reports.
  • Finance automates drawback claims at scale.
  • Together, departments move faster, align decisions, and reduce cost exposure.
 

Business value & ROI

Risk Reduction
Alteryx reduces tariff exposure by unifying classification data, shipment history, and trade rules into governed workflows that make risk modeling fast and reliable. Teams can proactively assess potential tariff changes, validate HTS codes, and ensure consistent compliance with clear auditability across every calculation.

Cost Reduction
Alteryx lowers duty costs by automating the full drawback process, cleansing and matching import and export records, validating eligibility, and producing submission-ready documentation. This eliminates manual effort, accelerates recovery cycles, and helps organizations capture the full value of duty refunds with far less operational overhead.

 

Roles and Teams Driving Results

Uses Alteryx to test sourcing shifts, model inventory strategies, and evaluate supplier compliance risk. Gains shared visibility across planning, logistics, and procurement for faster, coordinated tariff responses.
