Catch freight overcharges before they’re paid.
Agents check every freight invoice line against the contracted rate card, accessorials, and shipment weight or dimensions, and flag what doesn’t match before payment.
- 5-7%
- of freight spend is recoverable
- 100%
- of invoice lines checked against the rate card, not a sample
- Days
- not months, to surface a full-population freight finding
01 Where value leaks
Freight bills are dense, and errors hide in the lines nobody checks.
Fuel surcharges, accessorial fees, and dimensional-weight adjustments rarely get checked line by line. Rate-card drift and temporary surcharges that never roll back are the most common source of recoverable spend.
-
Carrier charges that exceed the contracted rate card
-
Fuel-surcharge and accessorial errors
-
Temporary surcharges applied and never rolled back
-
Dimensional-weight and reweigh charges that do not match the shipment record
02 Audit first
Find the leak before changing the process.
The audit investigates the full scoped population against source evidence. Findings arrive quantified, recoverable, and ready for your team to act on.
What agents then prevent
Once the audit has found the leak, the same agents check every new transaction, so it stays closed.
01
Line-item freight audit before every payment
02
Rate-card and accessorial validation against the current contract
03
Surcharge monitoring so temporary fees actually expire
04
Carrier scorecards built from the full population, not samples
03 Proof
Auditing every line changes what freight overcharges surface.
