Arezza Ports Strategy

 

Arezza Ports Strategy

 This is a summary of the strategy regarding marine+truck transport:

1. Objective: implement measures to utilize marine+truck transport designed to increase the quantity and quality of US small business exports, especially manufacturing, by emphasizing break-bulk, palletized, project, LCL and LTL cargoes.

2. Key partners are Marine Transport Companies and Truckers to which we bring business, to perform first and last mile related services.

     3. We want to have a work relationship with any US or foreign port not 

           to engage in brick and mortar type of infrastructure, rather for:

     4. TMS - Transportation Management Systems - software and related 

          communications equipment at each port; staff will be trained!

     5. EaaS - energy as a service microgrids to support TMS and more.

Both TMS and EaaS are paid via a pay as you go, BOT set-up. The ports will own these set-ups at the end of a 5-7 year period. Finally, all ports, marine+truck entities generate revenues in line with:

Cargo  Manufacturing and EaaS projects.

Definitions

For purposes of our projects, ports are defined as properties located within a 50 mile radius of navigable waterways - inland, lake, intracoastal, canal - approved, owned, operated and/or managed by the local community jurisdiction or municipality. 

A port is further defined as a transshipment point under the following categories: airport, rail yard, truck stop, warehouse and marine facility on a navigable waterway.

The Funding Plan

Cargo Procurement - Marine and Truck Shipping - Energy as a Service - Infrastructure (ports & shipbuilding) - Travel Destination Management.

Most Transactions are funded with buyer direct payments as well as invoice factoring. The more complex, multi year capital  projects are funded with build operate and transfer BOT schemes and, in the case of product and service exports, via US Export-Import Bank facilities. Finally, domestic and export maritime projects can be funded via the Maritime Administration’s Title XI program that finances 75 percent of project costs.

The Arezza TMS and WMS systems feature software in support of Arezza’s multi modal and routing databases specifically designed for the regional locations. The software is a monthly subscription service, including training and other support services; however, it is managed 24/7 by the regional port staff.

Marine Craft and Shipyard design services. The shipyard could be an existing facility in the region; alternatively, the ex-novo option could be adjacent to the regional port, requiring road and river access and approximately a 300 x 300 ft area.

The Regional Port features similar dimensions and access requirements.

Ways and Means the objective is to develop a community effort whereby a local legal entity is established, owned by Arezza, a local municipality, economic development, and other organizations possessing the know-how required to take our projects to the next level. This approach is ideal for purposes of succeeding in the export markets, bringing in foreign manufacturers interested in establishing a facility in the United States and, more importantly, supporting the regional manufacturing base.

Micro-Captive Insurance for Smaller Manufacturers

 

Micro-Captive Insurance for Smaller Manufacturers

Tax deferred income for risks not covered by mainstream insurers

 Relief for Small Businesses Nearly 40 years ago, the U.S. Congress passed the Tax Reform Act of 1986, which included Section 831 of the Internal Revenue Code. This code created a self-insurance option for small businesses, often referred to as a micro-captive insurance plan. These plans allow small businesses to set aside tax-deferred dollars for unforeseen risks that are unique to their industry and typically not covered by mainstream insurers. 

micro-captive insurance plans are small insurance companies wholly owned and controlled by their insureds

A company can establish a micro-captive on its own, or hire a professional captive administrator or management firm to help navigate regulatory requirements and documentation. Micro-captives are smaller than traditional captives, providing a $2.85 million annual premium deposit cap adjusted annually for inflation. This coverage option can be not only cheaper than traditional insurance options, but also allow greater flexibility and coverage options for manufacturers to protect against niche disasters that plague the industry.

micro-captive policies can be tailored to protect a business from supply chain disruptions or product recalls 

831(b) micro-captive insurance plans allow manufacturing companies greater control and specificity over policy limits and coverages and open the potential for lower premiums long-term. Despite being a lesser-utilized Section of the Tax Code, 831(b) has had major impacts and benefits for companies opting to implement it in years past. Through research and proper implementation with a qualified micro-captive manager, these programs have the potential to reshape the way America’s manufacturing industry operates and survives increasingly turbulent global challenges.
