Process

FREIGHT AUDIT

Automate cost calculations

Set up a system to automatically calculate the expected freight cost per shipment and reconcile it to carrier invoices. Coordinate with operations on data deviations (weights, volumes, container types, routes, references) to resolve issues and ensure 100% accuracy in cost calculations.

Validate invoices against real billing rules

We validate freight invoices against contracted rates and shipment data to eliminate duplicate charges, incorrect freight rates, billing errors, unmatched references, invalid surcharges, detention, demurrage, and other accessorial charges - so you never pay more than required.

Streamline carrier communication

Communicate directly with carriers to set up and manage invoicing requirements, invoicing frequency, the dispute and error-resolution process, and the approval procedure - aligned to your contract terms and operational requirements.

Collaborate with finance

Coordinate with Finance to simplify month-end close, accruals, budgeting, and AP processing by providing clean, validated invoice data on time - reducing follow-ups, delays, and rework caused by billing disputes or missing shipment data.

Deliver actionable cost insights

Provide detailed reports that highlight cost trends and fluctuations across carriers, trade lanes, regions, and surcharge categories. Enable data-driven decisions to identify inefficiencies, prevent recurring billing issues, and improve cost-to-serve.

Support procurement with carrier selection simulations

Run simulations and carrier comparisons during sourcing and contract renewals to quantify the impact of different carriers, trade lanes, and rate structures - helping you choose the right carrier strategy to reduce transportation costs and improve profitability.
