Why You Need a Post-Auditing Service
Let's do the math:

If you’re not using a freight bill post-auditing service now, it’s a safe bet some of your money is in someone else’s pocket. THAT'S THE CASE EVEN IF YOU EMPLOY A PRE-AUDIT PAYMENT/LOGISTICS FIRM.

Freight bill errors happen all the time as a result of many forces including complex and changing rate structures and tariffs for cargo carried by truck, railroad, domestic and international airlines and ocean freighters. In fact, there are 66 possible errors that can be identified on a typical shipping invoice. Which is why it takes a true expert to verify the accuracy of any freight bill.

Pre-audit firms are primarily specialists at ensuring your payments are made within time limits set by carriers, protecting your reputation and credit rating.

Recognizing this, many of our clients arrange to send us their freight bills directly from pre-audit services. THEY KNOW WE ARE THE EXPERTS AT FINDING THE OVERCHARGES PRE-AUDIT FIRMS OVERLOOK.

And those overcharges can be substantial. And they certainly can impact your company’s bottom line.

For example, if we recover just $10,000 in freight bill overcharges for you, that’s equal to a $200,000 increase in sales for your company if it operates at a net profit of 5% (pre-tax). And $25,000 in freight bill rebates is equivalent to a half-million dollar increase in sales at that rate.
