Premium services are easy to default to and hard to audit. IL identifies shipments that consistently arrive faster than the service they were paid for — and the lanes where a slower, cheaper mode would meet customer commitments just as well.
What IL helps you do
- Identify shipments that could move on a slower, lower-cost service
- Surface mode mismatches across parcel, LTL, and freight
- Track effective discount and net charge by service and lane
- Quantify the savings of right-sizing service mix
Business impact
- Reduce overspend on premium services that aren't required
- Right-size mode selection based on real delivery patterns
- Improve carrier scorecards with hard service-level data
Why teams adopt this first.
Mode analysis is the highest-leverage report for shippers running mixed-mode networks. The savings show up in the next billing cycle, not next year.
