RESEARCH CASES
See how evidence
changes the next step.
Follow two documented research examples. These illustrate investigation methods, not customer wins or promised sales results.
CASE 01 · INDONESIA · IMPORTER RESEARCH
From a product code
to a company investigation.
Customized import sample · 31 Aug 2026 · HS 32061190
The question
Can a product-matched import record provide enough company and supply context to begin qualifying a prospect?
The observed evidence
The reviewed HS 320611 workflow led to a detail describing “Color material”. It includes importer identity, company code and website fields; exporter and supplier are separately identified.
- Route
- Xiamen → Tanjung Perak
- Quantity / CIF value
- 5,210 kilograms / 12,504 USD
The research decision
The record can support company-identity and sourcing-role research. Its broad product wording is insufficient to qualify a specific grade.
What remains to confirm
- Material specification and product fit
- The company’s actual business role
- Relevant activity over a defined period
- A current business contact channel

CASE 02 · BELARUS · EQUIPMENT RESEARCH
Choose the dataset
for the question it can answer.
Import bills sample · 11 Sep 2026 · HS 8481805990
The question
Can this version support industrial-company research or a purchase-volume comparison?
The observed workflow
The reviewed HS 320611 and 3206 searches returned no records in this version. A separate HS 8481 search returned equipment for water and foam fire-extinguishing systems.
The opened detail distinguishes consignee, shipper and producer, with identity fields and product wording. Quantity and monetary fields were absent.
The research decision
Use the example to investigate equipment applications and company roles. It cannot support shipment-volume or price estimates without another verified source.
What remains to confirm
- The required equipment specification
- Relevant period and dataset version
- Availability of quantity and value fields if needed
- Current role and commercial fit of the company
Inspect the Belarus sample ↗A change of product query illustrates available fields. It does not establish market demand for either category.
