Time is of the essence in
delivering many of today's business communications,
materials and products. While overnight transportation and
priority air express services may be the best ways to meet
tight time constraints, they are very expensive services and
are often improperly used -- costing your company thousands
each year in waste costs. Plus, inadequate planning can
increase the need for express services unnecessarily.
Employees can be
uncertain about which service to use. For
example, overnight shipping using priority air express
service is often used as the "default" service even when
it's not really needed, such as over relatively short
distances or just before weekends. And, since the intended
package recipients don't act immediately on documents and
materials that have been shipped via priority service,
employees are very often buying higher cost services than
are actually needed.
If you use FedEx, UPS, DHL or other
express services, we can help. We'll review your shipping
usage and needs, your carriers and rates, and your total
spend in each service category to determine how to reduce
your costs. We'll also benchmark
your rates to
find out what other companies, including your competitors,
are paying for the kinds of services you use.
Upon completion of the project you'll
receive a customized air express and parcel shipment plan
for your company describing service options, the best ways
to use these services and your savings potential. The plan
will include easy-to-use tools so your employees will be
sure of which service is the best value for each and every
shipment.
We can also arrange
for audits of your express shipment invoices to recover
payments made on shipments that did not meet guaranteed
delivery deadlines and to assure that your contracted rates
are fully adhered to.
