Build a Export Compliance App with Glide

Export compliance violations carry penalties that can reach hundreds of millions of dollars and result in denial of export privileges — yet most exporters still manage their compliance obligations in spreadsheets and email. GlideApps Agency builds export compliance apps that help your trade compliance team screen transactions, manage licenses, track regulatory changes, and maintain the records required for export compliance audits.

What does building a Export Compliance app include?

Every engagement includes discovery, data architecture, UI/UX design, development, QA, and post-launch support — not just a build-and-handoff.

Discovery & Architecture

Requirements mapping, data modeling, integration planning, and platform-fit assessment before a single screen is built.

UI/UX Design

Wireframes and interactive prototypes designed for your users — not generic templates. Optimized for mobile and desktop.

Development & QA

Built by certified Glide experts with enterprise experience. Rigorous testing across devices, roles, and data volumes.

Launch & Support

User training, documentation, and ongoing maintenance. We don't disappear after deployment.

Key features of your Export Compliance app

Denied Party Screening Log

Log and track denied party screening results for each transaction — maintaining the record of who was screened, against which lists, and when — to demonstrate your compliance program in government audits.

Export License Management

Track all export licenses and license exceptions — including scope, validity dates, authorized users, and remaining value — with automatic alerts when licenses approach expiration or value thresholds.

Commodity Classification Register

Maintain your ECCN and Schedule B classification register with rationales documented, supporting the classification decisions your compliance team will need to defend in audits.

Compliance Training Records

Track export compliance training completion by employee with role-based curricula — ensuring everyone involved in export transactions has completed required training and certifications.

Who uses a Export Compliance app?

+A defense contractor uses the app to manage their ITAR compliance program — technology transfer logs, foreign national access records, and license utilization tracking are all maintained in the app for DDTC audits.
+An industrial equipment manufacturer tracks EAR licensing, commodity classifications, and denied party screening logs for 200+ monthly export transactions — the trade compliance team uses the app daily to manage their compliance workload.
+A pharmaceutical company manages import/export compliance for clinical trial materials across 30 countries — tracking import/export authorizations, regulatory submissions, and country-specific requirements from one app.

How much does a Export Compliance app cost?

Projects start at $15,000 for internal business apps. Most clients invest $40,000–$80,000 annually across development, iteration, and support.

Frequently asked questions about Export Compliance apps

Does the app conduct denied party screening?+
The app tracks and logs screening results but does not perform the screening itself — that requires integration with a screening provider like Descartes or Amber Road. We can build integration with your screening provider to log results automatically.
How does the app help manage EAR and ITAR requirements?+
We build separate compliance frameworks for EAR and ITAR items — with distinct workflows, documentation requirements, and license management. ITAR-controlled items can be flagged for enhanced handling requirements.
Can the app track technology control plan compliance for ITAR items?+
Yes. We build TCP compliance tracking into the app — documenting physical security measures, visitor controls, training requirements, and periodic self-assessments that your TCP requires.
How do we use the app for voluntary self-disclosure preparation?+
Your app's complete transaction log, screening records, and corrective action history provide the documentation foundation for voluntary self-disclosure packages. We structure the data to support narrative construction for disclosures.
What size export operations benefit most from a custom compliance app?+
Companies with 50+ export transactions per month and multiple compliance staff typically see the most value. Below that threshold, the app provides audit trail and process standardization benefits that justify the investment even for smaller operations.

I was impressed with how they could translate complex concepts into tasks, actions, and activities.
