An LTL procurement event is a structured process for redesigning your LTL carrier strategy, not just collecting lower rates.

With TranzAct Logistics, the process starts with your actual shipment data, lane history, service requirements, and accessorial patterns. From there, we build a sourcing strategy designed to improve your total transportation outcome, including cost, service consistency, carrier fit, and operational efficiency. Carriers bid against a well-defined freight profile so pricing is based on how you really ship, not broad assumptions.

What this means for you:

You get more than a rate exercise. You get a carrier strategy tailored to your network, backed by data, aligned to your service needs, and built to support long-term savings rather than short-term price concessions.

We turn shipment history into a practical decision-making tool.

TranzAct Logistics analyzes your freight profile across lanes, weights, shipment frequency, carrier usage, accessorial trends, service performance, and spend patterns. We normalize the data, identify the true cost drivers, and model opportunities such as carrier realignment, consolidation, mode shift, and network changes. We then present the findings in a way that helps you understand where savings are available and what operational changes will have the greatest impact.

After go-live, the analysis does not stop. Ongoing visibility into shipment activity, cost variances, and performance trends helps you sustain results and make better decisions over time.

What this means for you:

You gain visibility into where your money is going, why it is going there, and what to do about it. Instead of relying on benchmarks or carrier promises, you can act on your own data with confidence.

We work with a broad network of qualified national and regional LTL carriers, and we build the carrier mix around what is best for your network.

That means we do not force a one-size-fits-all solution. We align carrier participation based on lane fit, service capability, geographic strength, pricing competitiveness, and long-term reliability. In many cases, the best answer is a balanced portfolio that combines the scale of national carriers with the flexibility and pricing advantages of regional providers.

What this means for you:

You are not limited to a static carrier list. You get access to a carrier strategy built around your freight profile, which helps improve service, expand options, and reduce dependency on any single provider.

Implementation typically takes 6 to 8 weeks, depending on scope, data readiness, and systems involved, but the real value is that the process is structured to get you live quickly without creating disruption for your team.

Our Implementation approach follows a disciplined path similar to the TranzAct Sync model:

1. Discovery: We map your current process, shipment data, business rules, and success metrics.

2. Design: We define the carrier strategy, rate structure, workflows, reporting needs, and any integration requirements.

3. Build and Test: We configure rates, carrier assignments, business rules, and data flows, then validate outputs through testing and user review.

4. Deploy and Support: We launch with monitoring, issue management, and ongoing change control so the solution continues to perform as your network evolves.

Because our team manages both the operational and technical side, customers do not have to coordinate multiple vendors or internal groups just to get value from the program.

What this means for you:

You get a guided rollout, faster time to value, fewer manual workarounds, and a smoother transition from current state to optimized state.

Savings depend on your starting point, but TranzAct Logistics is designed to improve far more than your quoted rates.

Customers often realize savings through a combination of improved rate structures, better carrier alignment, shipment consolidation, reduced accessorial exposure, and smarter mode selection. The biggest value often comes from combining procurement discipline with ongoing visibility and control, which helps prevent savings from eroding after implementation.

TranzAct Logistics has also been positioned to help mid-sized shippers benefit from aggregated buying power and more sophisticated rate sourcing than they could typically access on their own.

What this means for you:

You should expect a combination of immediate and ongoing value: lower transportation spend, better service consistency, stronger control over freight decisions, and a solution designed to sustain results rather than just produce a one-time bid event.

A traditional LTL bid usually focuses on getting carriers to submit rates.

TranzAct Logistics goes further by combining:

• Data-driven procurement

• Carrier portfolio design

• Operational visibility

• Implementation support

• Ongoing analytics and governance

   

That means customers do not just receive rates. They receive a managed strategy for improving LTL performance over time.
