The International Trade Administration (ITA) is an agency in the U.S. Department of Commerce that strengthens the competitiveness of the U.S. industry at home and abroad.

b. Manufacturing and Services that strengthens the U.S. competitiveness abroad by helping shape industry-specific trade policy;
c. Market Access and Compliance that assists the U.S. companies and helps create trade opportunities through the removal of market access barriers; and
