Rate Negotiation

Leverage 15 years of industry experience and knowledge to negotiate the right small parcel services, at the best possible price. Many companies possess the requisite skill and capability to perform the basic function of procurement and supplier contract negotiations. However, in the parcel shipping industry, due to the complexity of the different rate plans, service offerings, marketing and negotiation practices- the customer’s leverage in the market is being eroded. Ask yourself the following questions:

Are you paying more or less than other similar customers?

Are you confident that your service and rate plans are best for you?

Should you change carriers to receive better performance?

Will you need to pay more to get improved service?

Can you receive both reduced costs and better delivery performance?

What's the best method to re-negotiate your carrier contract?

Can you easily identify and eliminate wasteful shipping behavior?

Are you starting to sense an information disadvantage? Have you already experienced how the process of carrier negotiations can be extremely frustrating and overly complex because the carrier seemingly holds all of the cards? Although your Rep may provide good and friendly service, the carrier may not provide all of the available options. If you need to write an RFP, it can be difficult to know what specs and variables to use in order to foster competitive and meaningful proposals.
