Shiplify Launches Accessorial ROI Calculator to Enhance Freight Billing Transparency

Shiplify has introduced an innovative Accessorial ROI Calculator designed to transform the freight invoicing process for shippers, carriers, and third-party logistics (3PL) providers. This tool provides upfront visibility into potential savings and billing clarity before shipments are moved, addressing the longstanding issue of reactive freight invoicing that often leads to disputes and eroded trust among partners.

According to North Winship, President of Shiplify, the calculator is a step towards eliminating surprise charges in freight billing. By offering real-time estimates based on shipping volumes and monthly accessorial fees, the tool aims to foster a more collaborative and accountable relationship between all parties involved in the supply chain. The calculator leverages Shiplify's proprietary data and proven benchmarks to deliver accurate insights into how accessorials like residential delivery and liftgate use impact overall shipping costs.

The introduction of the ROI Calculator comes at a critical time when accessorial fees are increasingly straining margins and relationships within the freight industry. Research by Bart De Muynck Strategic Advice highlights the need for proactive management of these fees to avoid financial surprises and disputes. Shiplify's solution directly addresses these challenges by providing the necessary visibility and tools for strategic planning.
