Success Stories

Singapore: Conference Deadline Excellence

The Challenge:

A leading CRO needed urgent export services for a Singapore shipment with an impossible timeline – materials had to be imported, held during a sponsor conference, then immediately re-exported. The client expressed serious doubts about whether the tight deadline was achievable, and the vendor handling import clearance had never worked with export processes before.

The TecEx Solution:

Our team took ownership of the entire logistics chain, managing not just the export documentation but coordinating the complex conference requirements. We conducted detailed training calls with the unfamiliar vendor, walking them through our standard export processes and requirements. Despite the compressed timeline, we orchestrated every detail to ensure seamless execution.

The Result:

The shipment delivered ahead of schedule and was promptly exported as soon as the conference concluded. The client’s response said it all: huge praise and gratitude for support that went far beyond expectations. We didn’t just meet an impossible deadline; we turned a stressed client into a confident partner who knows we deliver when it matters most.

Israel to Germany: 96-Hour Pediatric Sample Sprint

The Challenge:

A critical pediatric biological sample needed to reach a German laboratory within 96 hours for time-sensitive treatment. The clock started ticking Thursday evening, but the sample wasn’t collected from the patient until Friday afternoon before Shabbos. By Saturday morning, the sample was stranded in Paris with no clear path to Germany and the local Israeli agent was unreachable.

The TecEx Solution:

Our team mobilized their entire global network on a Saturday, making calls across continents to orchestrate an emergency rescue mission. We contacted partners in London who reached their VP in Paris, coordinated with our Slovakian team for clearance delegation, and managed every handoff to ensure the sample kept moving toward its destination.

The Result:

The sample arrived in Germany Saturday afternoon, cleared customs in our name, and reached the laboratory in time for the patient’s critical treatment. What started as a potential disaster became a life-saving success story. This pediatric patient received the treatment they needed because our team refuses to accept “impossible” as an answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Exporter of Record (EOR) and why do I need one for clinical trials?
An Exporter of Record (EOR) is the legal entity responsible for ensuring exported goods comply with all origin country regulations, export controls, and documentation requirements. For clinical trials, this means someone must take legal responsibility for exporting investigational medicinal products (IMP), medical devices, biological samples, and other trial materials. Without proper EOR services, your shipments can be delayed, rejected, or face regulatory violations that compromise your global trial timeline.
How is clinical trial EOR different from standard commercial exporting?
Clinical trial materials involve unique regulatory considerations including investigational product status, controlled substance classifications, and health authority requirements. Unlike commercial exports, clinical supplies often require specialized licenses, expedited processing, and compliance with both export regulations and clinical trial protocols. Additionally, the time-sensitive nature of clinical trials means export delays can directly impact patient treatment and protocol integrity.
What happens if I try to handle exports internally instead of using a specialist EOR?
Internal export management often leads to significant challenges including incomplete documentation, regulatory violations, unexpected delays, and increased costs. Without specialized expertise, companies frequently underestimate the complexity of clinical trial exports, leading to shipments being held by customs, missed site activation timelines, and potential protocol deviations that can impact trial outcomes.
What types of clinical trial materials can TecEx export as EOR?
We handle the full spectrum of clinical trial exports including investigational medicinal products (IMP), medical devices, diagnostic equipment, laboratory supplies, biological samples, comparator drugs, and ancillary materials. Our comprehensive export licenses cover virtually all clinical trial commodities, eliminating the need for you to obtain separate authorizations.
How do you ensure my shipments meet all export requirements?
Our success stems from three core capabilities: we maintain all necessary export licenses and regulatory approvals in advance, our team stays current on evolving export regulations and controlled substance requirements, and we have established relationships with customs authorities and health regulators. We’re on a mission to make your life as simple as possible and deliver world-class service 24/7.
What if my manufacturing site or vendor has never worked with an external EOR before?
This is common, and we're experienced at integrating with new manufacturing and vendor systems. We'll work directly with your sites and vendors to align processes, provide training on our requirements, and establish clear communication protocols. Most manufacturing partners find our structured approach actually simplifies their export processes.
What if there are export restrictions or controlled substance requirements for my materials?
Our team specializes in navigating complex export controls including controlled substances, dual-use items, and restricted materials. We handle all necessary licensing applications, regulatory submissions, and compliance documentation. Our established relationships with regulatory authorities often allow us to expedite approvals and resolve issues quickly.
How does pricing work for IOR services?
IOR pricing typically includes a service fee plus any applicable duties and taxes. Unlike hidden-fee models, we provide transparent pricing upfront so you can budget accurately. Many clients find that our consolidated approach actually reduces overall costs by eliminating duplicate processes, reducing delays, and preventing costly re-work.
How does EOR pricing work?
Every project is different because we create bespoke solutions aligned to your needs. However, in each case we provide transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden charges, allowing you to budget accurately. Many clients find our consolidated approach reduces overall costs by eliminating duplicate processes, preventing delays, and avoiding costly compliance violations.
Can you handle exports to multiple countries from a single origin?
Yes, we regularly manage complex multi-destination export programs. Our global network allows us to coordinate shipments to multiple countries while ensuring each destination's specific import requirements are met. You'll have a single point of contact managing all exports regardless of final destination.
What documentation do I need to provide for EOR services?
Documentation requirements vary by material type and destination, but we'll guide you through the specific needs for each export. Our team can often work with preliminary information while gathering complete details, and we'll prepare all regulatory submissions and export declarations on your behalf.
