Can Ground Freight Shipping Be Your Competitive Edge? We Say Yes.

Ground freight shipping can drain your profitability. The reasons are many, starting with the sheer number of carriers in the marketplace. With thousands of regional and national carriers, most companies lack a solid understanding of the varying rate structures, strengths, weaknesses and surcharges.

NPI helps you avoid ground freight costing pitfalls by providing insight into historical pricing data, rate and surcharge justifications and contractual best practices. We believe this knowledge directly impacts your bottom line and ultimately gives you a competitive edge.
We provide the following services for your ground freight shipping needs:

• Contract Benchmarking & Negotiation: LTL or FTL? LTL or small package hundredweight? Fuel surcharges, accessorial charges, complex tariffs, minimum charges, classes – the list of confusing contract terms and costs go on and on. NPI’s ground freight experts bring sense to contract proposals and pricing to ensure that clients obtain fair market value for their freight shipments.
• Bill Auditing & Service Recovery: How many times have you been billed incorrectly by your freight provider? Freight bills are intentionally confusing, which is why many companies outsource bill auditing and profit recovery to NPI. Our seasoned transportation experts know exactly what type of inaccuracies to look for to maximize profit recovery for your company.
