Procurement & Costs
Freight Audit & Pay
Freight audit & pay is the process of reviewing, validating, and paying carrier invoices. It ensures billed charges match contracted or quoted rates and that accessorials are correctly applied.
Why it Matters: Studies show 5–15% of freight invoices contain errors. Auditing prevents overpayment, increases transparency, and strengthens trust with carriers. It also generates valuable data for procurement teams to identify hidden costs and optimize sourcing decisions.
