Reduce 3PL and warehouse costs by defining units, governing accessorials, matching invoices to operational data, disputing overcharges, and running RFPs.
Collection
Reduce 3PL and warehouse costs with an operating system: rate card and units → accessorial governance → invoice-to-ops matching → dispute discipline → RFP leverage.
This collection is cost-first with invoice integrity:
stop accessorial drift by defining triggers and documentation rules
match invoices to operational truth (orders, cartons, pallets, weights, zones)
dispute overcharges with evidence packs and a tracking cadence
make renewals comparable with forced pricing templates and clear units
Who this is for
operations leaders responsible for warehouse and fulfillment performance
procurement and finance teams responsible for 3PL contracts and invoices
teams seeing recurring accessorial disputes and rate card ambiguity
How to use this collection
Follow in order:
define units, rate card expectations, and accessorial triggers (what is billable and when)
quantify accessorial overcharges quickly with the checker
run the leakage playbook to dispute unsupported fees and install monthly controls
when leverage is needed, run the 3PL RFP and pricing kit
