What We Analyze

Freight Invoice Audits

We review carrier invoices line by line to verify rates, surcharges, discounts, and additional fees against your contracts and shipment records. This helps identify:

  • Duplicate charges
  • Incorrect fuel surcharges
  • Invalid accessorial fees
  • Classification errors
  • Billing discrepancies
  • Overpayments

Fuel Surcharge Auditing

Fuel surcharges can add a significant cost to every shipment. We review each fuel charge to ensure it matches your carrier agreement, fuel index, and shipment date. This helps identify incorrect calculations, duplicate charges, and billing errors—while giving you better visibility into fuel-related transportation costs.

 

Carrier Rate Benchmarking

We compare your transportation rates against market benchmarks to determine whether your current carrier pricing is competitive. This gives you leverage in carrier negotiations and contract renewals.

 

Accessorial Fee Analysis

Unexpected fees can quickly inflate shipping spend. We audit charges such as:

  • Detention
  • Liftgate
  • Residential delivery
  • Storage
  • Re-delivery
  • Appointment fees
  • Reclassification charges

We identify recurring patterns and highlight opportunities to dispute or prevent unnecessary charges.

Lane & Route Cost Optimization

We evaluate shipment lanes, routing patterns, and carrier performance to uncover inefficiencies and cost-saving opportunities across your network.
