        abstract = {Operations and documentations activities in moving goods across international borders are complex and cumbersome and have been identified to cut across inefficiency in global supply chain. There are often delays in documenting and inefficient coordination among the various actors in the supply chain and not enough transparency about the information have often contributed to gaps in operations that affect the performance of trade. Digital platforms are increasingly becoming a value-adding tool across supply chain and trade operations with the advancement of technology in the digital space.
The current research shall analyze and study the impact of digital platforms in eliminating the operational and documentation inefficiencies in international trade. The focus shall be dedicated towards examining the impact of real-time sharing of information through digital platforms in improving the coordination of various participants in the supply chain and reducing the administrative inefficiencies caused by traditional documentation systems. The study shall also examine the impact of digitalization on the operational transparency, process automation and decision-making in international activities.
The research work is planned with proper structure with the use of primary data collection and analysis. The findings of research work show that digital platforms have significant impact on reduction of errors in documentation, reducing time taken for processing the documents and improved communication between stakeholders including exporter, importer and other involvement in logistics and regulatory authorities. Moreover, implementation of digital technology leads to operational visibility and efficient trade.
