• Unclear conversion rules

We manage ocean freight audit on behalf of many customers that ship either via Forwarders or with the shipping lines directly. Ocean Freight Audit has a natural complexity of often having multiple modes included in one shipment. This also often means: multiple invoices for the same shipment; changing surcharges and accessorial costs. The Freight Audit platform is well equipped to manage all these specifics and our staff is well trained to handle exceptions around ocean shipments.

Typical Road billing issues:

• Frequently changing accessorial costs
• Unclear calculation rules
