The Challenge

Before Intelligent Audit, this large distributor processed ~120,000 freight invoices annually with limited audit depth and visibility. Critical billing errors went undetected, and finance lacked confidence in transportation spend. The situation:

["Missed contract rate non-compliance", "Allowed duplicate billing to go unchecked", "Failed to identify accessorial overcharges", "Relied on manual, surface-level invoice reviews"]

The Solution

Intelligent Audit implemented a detailed, multi-layered freight audit process across TL and LTL, driving deeper visibility and control.

["Audits invoices against contracted rates and business rules", "Identifies common exception patterns and root causes", "Detects duplicate invoices and billing inconsistencies", "Flags unauthorized accessorial charges and fuel surcharge errors", "Aligns transportation and finance teams with improved upstream controls"]

The Impact

By moving from limited, surface-level checks to a detailed freight audit process, Intelligent Audit uncovers hidden errors, improves accuracy, and drives meaningful cost recovery across high invoice volumes.
