Why GG Global

The question is:
Why audit your freight bills and why use GG Global Corporation to do it?


There are always errors. The goal is to locate, correct and eliminate them in the most effective way possible. This is the business we specialize in. We can only make you better and that is our service guarantee. Your efficiency will increase, your profits will increase and your business will be more effective.

The fact is there are ALWAYS errors in transportation invoices. The freight companies are unfortunately notorious for this. The second reason is that many well intentioned firms hire freight payment companies to pay their bills, many of these companies make plenty of errors. Many times hiring a freight payment house is a good move and even a necessity for the accounting requirements and needs of your company. Accounting information captured by general ledger codes, divisions, products and many other areas need to be captured, we understand that. Unfortunately, the bills may be paid incorrectly a percentage of the time quite often by the freight payment houses. The only question is how bad is your situation? It could be very bad or not so bad. By the time we audit the six months we will know everything.

Freight payment firms work on the basis of freight bills processed. That is their core competency. Many do this quite well, some do not. The problem is in the pre audit of the freight bills themselves. The push of the freight payment company is to process as many bills each week as possible. That is how they make their money, on a per bill basis. Auditing the bills is really a secondary function. To truly audit freight bills takes very experienced auditors with years of experience in the field. Unfortunately, there are just not enough of these people out there. So, one or two things happen. The real auditors are overloaded and over worked and/or less experienced process data entry people are assigned to audit the bills, and that will never work. Transportation bills are extremely complicated. To be able to audit a bill with a multi tiered FAK class and specific base rates, discounted and subject to rules such as capacity loads, linear foot rules, bumping clauses and such is far beyond the knowledge base of any data entry person. As these freight payment houses have grown they have put more pressure on their people to audit and process as many bills as possible. This has caused an increase in the amount of incorrectly rated bills to get by the check systems and get paid incorrectly. Now as many of these data entry services are outsourcing these services off shore the error margins are increasing. Bad for the shippers and manufactures but great for companies like us! (Sorry)

We are so good that if errors exist, we will find them.

First off we get paid only on money we physically get back for you! Our one charge is 50% of the money we get back.

The other main reason for post auditing your freight bills is simply because transportation vendors make a myriad of mistakes If you do not file claim an overcharge claim on these mistakes within 180 days of the shipment date you have NO right to go back and claim your money. That might sound odd and even unfair but it is the law, a law the carriers live by as well. If you file a claim six months and one day past the ship date, no matter how egregious their mistake was they simply will not pay you back. In other words, they are holding your money and if you do not find the error and file a formal claim the money will become theirs legally.

There is an entire industry built around the errors that transportation vendors make. Each transportation vendor has an entire department to deal with these errors. That should be an indication of just how many errors they do make. Whether you pay your bills in house or use a freight payment service, whether the bills are in paper or electronic format, there are always mistakes. If you do pay your bills in house then you should immediately have them post audited. Freight bill formulas and factors can be so complicated that even the best financial people do not understand. Whether this is done intentionally has been a matter of debate for years. However, if you are paying freight bills in house you may have carrier billing errors. I am sorry to say it really is just that simple.

There are many other important reasons to audit your freight bills explained herein. Nevertheless, the main reason is simple. Your transportation vendors are keeping your money that was over paid when the vendor over billed your company. To recover your money we have to post audit the bills and file formal claims.

Oddly, your people might be doing a great job with your outbound shipments. However, the majority of errors are on inbound freight bills, and for good reason. When a vendor of yours sends you freight it becomes their responsibility to determine the correct National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC). There are 18 of them ranging from class 50 to 500. These classes are actually percentages of a base rate. If the vendor marks the bill of lading incorrectly and states the freight is class 200 and in reality it is class 100, you will pay twice what the fright bill was suppose to be. But the vendor never sees that bill and unfortunately they do not care many times as they are not paying the bill, you are.

Another benefit of having GGG audit your freight bills is that no matter what we find we will generate a report about your transportation system. We will tell you where you stand in comparison to the market and give you an overview of what we see. This is free but will no doubt save you money if you take the information to heart.

Another serious benefit is our reporting functions and technology. Our reporting functions are the best available. We can generate any report you need whenever you need it. Our system is also set up so that our customers can log into their data and run any report they need. A normal procedure would be for you to tell us how to set up the report. The “standard’ reports that you need are uploaded in real time for you. Therefore, if you need a report all you need to do is to log in and click on your pre developed reports or you can run others. The data is kept in an access program to be user friendly. No company out there has better reporting functions or technology. We believe this is a serious competitive edge that we have to offer our customers

The included booklet tells you WHY you should audit your freight bills, how to get started, and some of the reports that are available to you after the bills are audited and other information. I hope it is to your satisfaction and we look forward to doing business with you soon and getting your money back for you!

As W. Clement Stone said many years ago “When you have everything to gain and nothing to lose, do it, and do it now.” you have nothing to lose and a whole lot to gain.
