The Team
The GMLS organisation is comprised of its Directors, Shareholders, Associates, Affiliates, Contracted Professional partners and Trade/Academic Experts which all form the foundation of our products and services. The experts in their own fields, who provide their services to GMLS, do so through formalised agreements. The proposed Shareholding structure makes provision for certain associates to be shareholders and derive direct royalty commissions from the writing and publishing of their own respective Tutoring and academic Learning Products. Please see additional links below of International Associates and Professionals.
MISSION
GMLS aims to secure the International Logistics Supply Chain by providing superior skills and knowledge transfer to Southern African countries. Benefits to these countries will include maintaining and increasing their participation in world trade, whilst they contribute, in turn, to Global Supply Chain Security.

APPROACH & COMPLIANCE
Our approach focuses specifically on the supply chain domain, where companies need to achieve best-for-business supply chain integrations vis-á-vis functional excellence. This requires:
- Establishing effective scale of operations in increasingly complex supply chains.
- Leveraging information technology to deliver business intelligence and process automation.
- Aligning people performance through formalised outputs and standardised measures.
Our expertise lies in improving business processes in the supply chain. Our client engagements result in knowledge transfer and building internal capabilities. Our involvement ranges from analyses and design to implementation and, when required, we operate supply chain processes on behalf of clients.
GMLS is comprised of a team of leading professionals located throughout South Africa. We provide consulting in the fields of import and export compliance, supply chain security and cross-border trade. We also provide trade advocacy services for the private sector, educational and training programmes for both the private and public sector. Our team includes noted trade compliance professionals with extensive practical experience in setting up successful Customs and Trade compliance organisations within major multinationals.
We have associates of highly skilled international professionals who are well versed in Global Supply Chain Security and compliance in terms of initiatives of the Revised Kyoto Convention as well as the WCO SAFE programmes. We will continue to develop and focus on Supply Chain Security into the future.
"Spend Management is - without a doubt - the fastest and most effective strategy for meeting the business challenges that we face head on. Regardless of where your organisation begins its spend management journey, the end goal is clear: enable people, processes and technologies that allow you to improve profits, reduce risks, optimise resources and gain advantage in the competitive global marketplace. To accomplish this goal and to succeed, it is critical to adopt a spend management solution with the assistance of the right partner..." Quoted from Supply Management of 1 November 2007 - This is Spend Management by Ariba
