Mail, Shipping and Freight Cost Reduction
Many companies use express shipping services for urgent documents and packages on an everyday basis. However, most are not aware that they can save money on these shipping and freight services by collecting refunds when shippers fail to deliver on time, negotiating better rates, and avoiding overcharges. When errors go unnoticed, companies get stuck paying for shipper mistakes and unperformed services.
SIB offers a late-delivery recovery solution for packages shipped via Ground or Air with UPS and/or FedEx. SIB tracks the shipper’s guaranteed packages and secures any refunds that are owed to the client due to the package arriving late. SIB secures these credits on the shipper’s behalf; there is no action required from the client. Since there is nothing to install and the client incurs no cost, this program can amount to substantial savings on shipping costs.
SIB’s state-of-the-art, proprietary software system can continuously monitor every charge on every invoice before you pay it. Through cost management, invoice auditing, and contract optimization, we can reduce your shipping expenses by up to 22%. For companies who depend on shipping services to keep their business in motion, this can amount to major cost savings. Best of all, it doesn’t cost you anything out of pocket – we only collect a share of savings once they are realized.
Weekly reporting includes:
- Instant credits to client’s account with the shipper
- Detailed breakdown of credits/refunds by account
- Claims management
- Identification of delinquent packages
SIB clients pay nothing unless a refund is identified and issued.
