Founded in 1986, TCG is a leading global trade consultancy in export-controls including provisions of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Export Administration Regulations (EAR), economic sanctions, and related matters. MK Technology’s staff includes professionals with extensive Government and private sector expertise in export controls and enforcement, including former senior export control and enforcement officials of the U.S. Departments of State, Commerce, Defense, Homeland Security and Treasury; former Congressional staffers; and senior level export compliance managers from leading defense and high technology firms. Headquartered in Washington, DC, with offices in Texas, New England and the West Coast of the USA, our consultants also are based in Japan, Germany and the UK. Our close collaboration with Trusted Trade Alliance, an import and supply chain security consultancy, gives MK-TTA a broad reach in the full spectrum of international import/export trade controls. MK's worldwide clientele in the dual-use and munitions export sectors includes small, medium and multinational enterprises, think tanks, research universities and leading law firms. A major element of our practice is crafting Internal Control Plans (also called Export Control Management Systems), Technology Control Plans, trade-compliance programs for clients worldwide, and advice on national export-control regimes throughout the world.
