We start by developing a list of your vendors and their freight
pricing terms. This information is supplemented by receiving logs
that we can provide in the event you are not currently tracking
delivering carrier information. We then work with you to determine
the difference between each vendor's delivered pricing vs. F.O.B.
origin pricing (or backhaul allowance); we then perform a cost benchmarking
step to identify what the current market rates are for
transportation & logistics services for each type of shipment made, comparing the numbers to
see where gaining control over freight makes economic sense. In
situations that have savings potential, we develop shipment routing
guides and work with your purchasing staff, your receiving department
and your vendors to convert to the more cost-efficient carriers.
