Carrier Management
ACS Inc. defines Carrier Management as the planning, organization, automation and more efficient use of transportation resources.
Through the effective data mining of information gathered by our Freight Audit and Payment services, we are able to create and manage customized routing guides for each customer.
Our procurement team is then able to leverage the combined buying power of all our customers to develop contracts with Major National and International carriers, resulting in improved transportation services at a substantially reduced cost.
While our carrier management programs are customized to the individual needs of each customer they all contain the following key components:
- Independence from carrier affiliation or influence
- Volume buying power for greatest discounts
- Consolidated shipping for load efficiencies and shared costs
- Experienced rate negotiation and carrier contracts
- Customized reporting, analysis, and costing
- Performance reporting and accountability
