While we try to strategize and streamline as much as possible, damaged and lost shipments are inevitable, with an average of 1% of shipments ending up with a freight claim. Inefficiency of the traditional freight claims process amplifies the cost impact.
Although, you face the threat of a freight claim, you can improve the process as much as possible. Automation streamlines the freight claims process. While automation addresses these inevitable freight claims effectively, it also provides a variety of additional benefits to an organization.
The Current State of Freight Claims
- Relying on a labor-intensive, manual freight claims process.
