A structured consulting deliverable that turns operational observations into prioritized, actionable findings. This sample covers a three-site distribution operation with gaps identified across receiving, carrier management, labor planning, technology, and documentation, each ranked by business impact with a tied recommendation and measurable outcome target. Built to function as a standalone reference document that leadership can act on immediately and track through implementation. This is the format every Tier 1 and Tier 2 engagement produces at close.

A purpose-built quoting tool for freight operations that handles two of the most common cost scenarios: miles-only and miles-plus-weight pricing. Inputs are kept simple: base fee, mileage, ops cost, fuel rate, and handling, and every calculation is automatic. The weight-tiered RPP model auto-selects the correct rate bracket based on shipment weight, so reps and account managers can generate accurate cost estimates in seconds without touching a formula. Built for 3PLs and carriers who are still quoting freight in spreadsheets or by hand.

A structured scoring framework for evaluating 3PL providers across the four criteria that actually determine fit: cost, service performance, technology capability, and network capacity. Each criterion carries a defined weight, and every subcriterion is scored independently so the final recommendation is defensible and traceable, not a gut call. Built for shippers and supply chain teams going through a carrier or 3PL selection process who need an objective way to compare bids side by side and present a recommendation to leadership.

Built a shipping KPI reporting system tracking nearly 3,000 order lines across multiple vendors and carriers. Raw data captures order number, order date, vendor name, ship method, and extended weight per line. A separate 3PL performance tab tracks freight charges, fuel costs, expenses, and profit per shipment across manufacturers and delivery states. Breakdown tab analyzes carrier distribution by month across vendor groups, showing BWay, UPS, and Will Call share as a percentage of total volume. The report tab delivers an executive-level KPI summary.
