About this service
How it works

From first call to lower invoices.

Four steps, run alongside your day-to-day shipping.

  1. A call with Tim

    Your lanes, modes, partners and contracts, and when your rates were last reviewed.

  2. Your data

    Rate cards, recent invoices and contracts. We do the analysis, so your team doesn't have to.

  3. The benchmark

    Your rates checked lane by lane against market data, surcharges included, with a clear view of where the money goes.

  4. The saving, realised

    Renegotiate with your current partners or go to tender, with hands-on support until the new rates are in place.

Why it doesn't get fixed

Fixing it takes three things at once.

Expertise

Reading rate cards, weighing modal trade-offs, structuring RFQs. A specialist discipline.

Market data

Independent rate data to benchmark against, not your forwarder's view of the market.

Time

A proper project, run without disrupting day-to-day shipping.

A full-time freight procurement hire is hard to justify below a certain spend, and a side project in a stretched ops or finance role never gets prioritised. That's the gap FreightSpend fills.

Book a call with Tim to talk through your lanes, partners and contracts, and where the savings are likely to sit.
