Freight Audit Services
At TGI, we take pride in optimizing your parcel freight processes with comprehensive services designed to save you time and money.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Invoice Processing
We ensure a thorough audit of your parcel freight carrier invoices. By receiving your shipment charges electronically before payment is processed, we interface with your carriers using EDI, guaranteeing timely, accurate, and cost-effective financial handling.
Identification of Service Failures
We swiftly detect any delivery time discrepancies in your shipments. Using direct data from your freight carrier, we catch and correct any errors or failures, ensuring that credits are automatically applied to your shipping bill.
Freight Billing Consolidation
Recognizing that “time is money,” TGI aims to streamline the billing process. We focus on reducing the time and effort you spend paying parcel freight bills, with reporting and tracking shipping patterns facilitated through our proprietary software "Global-Trac."
This tool enables us to produce company-specific reports, from executive summaries to custom and full-detail reports, all in your preferred file format. This removes complexities and enhances integration with your accounting software, streamlining your billing processes with efficiency through our web client portal.

Automated Cost Allocation
Our advanced technology facilitates any invoicing allocation your business might require, from simple classifications to complex, multi-layered processes, aligning perfectly with your accounting specifications.
Carrier Payment Adjustment
TGI identifies and deducts your savings before sending out your weekly consolidated invoice. This invoice combines all your carrier charges and subtracts carrier-approved credits from our audits, showing only the net amount due. This simplification reduces multiple daily or supplemental invoices to a single straightforward payment, streamlining your billing process efficiently.
Rate Negotiations
Our expertise and experience leverage your shipping volume and pricing structures to negotiate better freight contracts. Our seasoned negotiation team works tirelessly to identify cost-saving opportunities, reducing your shipping expenses significantly.
