Checking invoices is at the core of the solution, but there are so many things you can do with the data you generate. It requires a fair amount of effort to get up and running, but once you have it, you never want to do without it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Freight Audit Managed and how does it work?

Freight Audit Managed is Transporeon's end-to-end managed freight audit service for multinational enterprises that want to fully outsource their freight invoice validation, dispute management, and cost settlement. Operating as a three-party model between shipper, carrier, and the Transporeon audit team, it covers the complete procure-to-pay cycle — customized to the customer's IT environment, carrier base, and process requirements, with 210M+ shipments processed annually.

How much can companies save with Freight Audit Managed?

Companies achieve an average saving of 20% on freight costs, driven by overbilling recovery, contract compliance enforcement, and data-driven carrier management. Teams also see up to 30% reduction in labor through automation of manual audit steps, and a 40% reduction in total invoices through process consolidation. These savings compound over time as audited data feeds into smarter tendering and procurement decisions — they're not a one-time recovery.

How does Freight Audit Managed differ from Freight Audit SelfService?

Freight Audit SelfService is designed for shippers who want to keep control in-house with a plug-and-play, road-focused tool. Freight Audit Managed is for enterprises with complex, multi-mode, multi-carrier, and often global operations who want a fully outsourced, expert-led service with deep analytics, carrier contract management, and certified compliance. If your operation spans multiple modes, geographies, and carrier contracts, Freight Audit Managed is the right fit.

What transport modes and invoice types does Freight Audit Managed cover?

The service covers all major transport modes — road (FTL and LTL), ocean, air, rail, parcel, and warehouse — including complex multi-modal shipments, forwarder invoices, and surcharges. The audit team is experienced in mode-specific billing complexities, meaning even the most intricate carrier invoice structures are validated correctly. This breadth of coverage makes it the right choice for enterprises with a diverse, global carrier base that no single-mode tool can serve.

How does Freight Audit Managed handle carrier overbilling and invoice disputes?

Overbilling is systematically identified and challenged by the Transporeon audit team — covering incorrect consolidation, duplicate shipments, unclear accessorial charges, and rounding errors that manual checks routinely miss. All disputes are managed centrally and transparently, not buried in private email threads. For one global household brand, overbilling was reduced from 3.6% to 2.5% following implementation, with 99.2% of payments made on time — giving carriers a reliable, predictable payment process too.

What analytics and freight spend visibility does Freight Audit Managed provide?

Freight Audit Managed replaces fragmented reports with a comprehensive analytics layer: 150+ customizable widgets, pre-made dashboards, market price comparisons, and freight rate analysis — built for both operational teams and C-level stakeholders. ASICS achieved 70% faster cost analysis after implementation. Because all freight data is unified and audited in one platform, you gain a single source of truth for compliance, reporting, cost allocation, and tendering strategy.

How does Freight Audit Managed ensure legal and tax compliance globally?

Every invoice processed is validated for legal entity details, VAT application, and regulatory requirements — reducing exposure to tax authority fines, VAT recovery failures, and payment fraud. Transporeon holds ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ISAE 3402, and SSAE18 Type II certifications, ensuring audit-proof processes and enterprise-grade data security. For compliance-driven organizations, this removes a significant operational and regulatory risk from the freight payment process.

How does Freight Audit Managed integrate with existing ERP and TMS systems?

Freight Audit Managed connects with your existing IT landscape through custom ERP and TMS interfaces, available as part of the value-added services. It also integrates natively with the broader Transporeon platform — including Rate Management and Transport Assignment — linking strategic tenders with execution in one connected environment. Implementation is fully managed by Transporeon, customized to your carrier base and process requirements rather than forcing you into a rigid template.

What results have real companies achieved with Freight Audit Managed?

The proof points are concrete: 99.2% on-time payment rate for a world-leading household name, 70% faster cost analysis for ASICS, and PUMA's Head of Global Logistics Procurement noting that "the Freight Audit process drives efficiencies through cost avoidance, providing unparalleled visibility, supplier control, accruals and labor relief." With 4,000+ carriers implemented globally since 2002 and 210M+ shipments audited annually, the depth of experience translates directly into faster implementation and more reliable savings.

Is Freight Audit Managed suitable for mid-size companies or only large enterprises?

Freight Audit Managed is tailored to multinational enterprises with complex, multi-mode, multi-carrier operations — typically where invoice volume and complexity justify a fully managed service. For companies with simpler, road-focused freight operations who want to stay in control of the process themselves, Freight Audit SelfService is the better-sized alternative. Transporeon offers both solutions to ensure every shipper finds the right fit for their operational profile and ambition.
