What can we help you find?
There are many opportunities to move some classes of freight from one service to another and/or between carriers to drive incremental savings. Examples include upgrading selected Ground freight to a USPS Air product, moving Ground to a Deferred Ground option, or the same service levels between carriers for a portion of the freight spend.
Shipware has access to reduced rates for qualifying businesses with FedEx; DHL; the USPS; each of the major regionals including Dicom, OnTrac, LSO, Spee Dee, UDS, Lasership and Pitt-Ohio/US Cargo; and all the major LTL carriers. What carrier and service mix offer the lowest total costs and best overall service for your customer base? Get answers with Shipware’s Transportation Spend Analysis and an advanced assessment of carrier shipping options.
Any time there is a dilution of freight from the primary carrier, it can impact the volume bonuses that carriers build into their contracts. It is not an accident that UPS and FedEx include these bonuses – it’s to discourage the use of regional carriers and the USPS. Shipware ensures the cost benefits of moving volume between carriers overcomes these carrier-imposed challenges while working to rightsize your Earned Discount or Portfolio Tier incentives to maximize savings.

Parcel & LTL Contract Optimization

Absolutely! UPS takes pride in its on-time delivery performance, and offers guaranteed service refunds for late deliveries. The challenge is, of course, that most companies don’t have the technology nor the resources to audit freight bills and file late claims on every eligible package.  That’s where Shipware comes in – to watch every package so you don’t have to. As a UPS shipper, you have the right to ensure the accuracy of your shipping bills and the fulfillment of all service guarantees, which are standard practice within the logistics industry.  Shipware casts a wider net to not only make the claims process easier for you (we do all the work), but to delivery significantly greater refunds and savings with our help.
No, we can help with small parcel contract negotiation so you can renegotiate a new shipping contract at any time. In fact, because shipping costs increase at least once a year, it’s best practice to renegotiate most contracts yearly, if not more, for optimal efficiency. It’s very rare for a carrier contract to remain optimized until expiration.
Shipware works with you behind the scenes, providing the necessary data, route optimization analyses, templates, and language to ensure you present yourself like an industry expert and crush your next negotiation. Because our partnership is kept completely confidential, your carrier will never know you’re working with Shipware. You’ll never see a Parcel or LTL Contract Optimization customer logo or name on our site because helping our customers succeed is our top priority.
If you want to retain your current carrier, Shipware will help you negotiate the best possible rates with them. However, there can be advantages to switching primary parcel carriers, diversifying your carrier mix, or shifting all your volume to a single provider. Our LTL & parcel shipping consulting team will model all possible scenarios for you while empowering you to make an informed decision based on comprehensive analytics.
