Tarrant Logistics found rate discrepancies weeks after the fact, usually once the invoice had already been paid and the leverage had gone.
Moving the check earlier changed the leverage
The agent reconciles the purchase order against the carrier rate card at receipt and flags any gap the same day. Nothing about the underlying dispute process changed. What changed is that finance now argues before the money has left.
Ninety-one percent accuracy, fifty-eight exceptions a month, and the fastest payback of the four at 2.2 months. Volume is what makes it work: the same accuracy on a tenth of the invoices would not have justified the spend.
