Managed LTL Service

Our Managed LTL Service delivers a comprehensive, data-driven approach to optimizing Less-Than-Truckload transportation. Designed for organizations seeking measurable cost reduction, improved visibility, and stronger carrier partnerships, this solution integrates analytics, technology, and hands-on operational support.

We begin by benchmarking your existing LTL network to establish a clear financial baseline and uncover savings opportunities using advanced modeling and market intelligence. From there, our carrier procurement strategies leverage competitive sourcing and performance-based contracting to deliver immediate and sustainable results. All carrier pricing agreements are negotiated directly in your company’s name, ensuring you retain full control, transparency, and ownership of carrier relationships.

For clients seeking end-to-end execution support, we provide a Transportation Management System (TMS) at no additional cost—typically a $150K–$250K standalone investment—supported by a dedicated operations team. This technology enables real-time shipment execution, reporting, and predictive analytics while automating key processes to reduce administrative burden and risk.

Our engagement model is built for transparency and alignment. We act as an extension of your logistics team, providing ongoing governance, business reviews, and data-driven insights to sustain results over time. With our off-bill incentive (OBI) structure, 100% of the savings are retained by you, as our fees are paid directly by carriers—ensuring zero P&L impact.

The result: a strategic partnership that delivers quantifiable savings, enhanced operational control, and long-term competitive advantage across your LTL network.
