Just a few of the consulting services we offer include:
Import/Export Consulting: Our team will guide you through the entire
process from start to finish. First time importers and exporters can be easily overwhelmed
by the vast number of governmental requirements and the fragmented sources of information.
We can advise you on every aspect of the importing and exporting processes, including
supplier selection, contract negotiation, negotiation of shipping terms, carrier
and route selection, US Customs clearance, warehousing and distribution, as well
as any other area of concern for your company.
Freight Bill Audits: Whether you are new to shipping
or just do not have the staff time to devote to the process, we can review your
current freight bills for carrier billing mistakes, service delivery failures, and
erroneous accessorial charges that can occur on each shipping invoice. Our team
of experts has the experience to reduce your freight costs by reviewing and reducing
billing errors from UPS, FedEx, LTL and truckload carriers, as well as ocean freight
and air freight carriers. We will maximize your cost savings by making certain that
each invoice is correct and we will manage the carrier audit refund process to make
certain you do not overpay.
Carrier Analysis & Vendor Selection: In the world of shipping and logistics, the choice of vendors and
service modalities can be overwhelming. Our team of professionals will analyze
your existing carriers and their associated rate structures to make sure that you
are getting the maximum value for your dollar. We will make sure that your
businesses' logistics needs are matched with the most cost-effective and service
appropriate carriers by matching you with the best local, regional, national and
global supply chain sources.
Development of Procedures & Controls: For many companies, logistics
and distribution is viewed as a secondary part of their business as they focus on
the manufacture and marketing of their products. As a result, service to your customers
suffers when it comes time to deliver. Let us show you how to improve your
internal shipping practices and procedures and maximize your customer's satisfaction.
Our team will show you how to reduce common service problems that can arise from
routing errors, shipping delays and communications difficulties when managing your
distribution.

to your customers and maximize your company's profit!
