Top 5 Ways ParcelLytics Improves Parcel Contract Negotiations

Parcel Management Isn’t Just About Contract Negotiations – Here’s Why

If you’re only reviewing parcel contracts once a year, you’re leaving money on the table. Shipping costs fluctuate, accessorial fees pile up, and carrier performance shifts constantly. Without real-time oversight, your logistics spend can spiral out of control – fast.

That’s why ParcelLogix created ParcelLytics, a data-driven tool that actively manages your parcel strategy every day – not just at contract renewal.

1. Hidden Fees Add Up – You Need Constant Oversight

Accessorial charges can inflate costs by 30% or more. ParcelLytics monitors invoices in real time, flagging unexpected fees immediately so you can dispute and cut unnecessary spend.

🚨 Example: A shipper saved thousands when ParcelLytics identified problem recipient addresses to eliminate Address Correction surcharges, reducing costs instantly.

2. Market Conditions Change – Your Contracts Should Too

Carrier pricing shifts with demand, fuel costs, and capacity. Waiting until renewal means you’re negotiating with outdated data.

📉 Fact: Shippers using mid-contract renegotiations save 10-20% annually – ParcelLytics tells you exactly when to act.

3. Poor Carrier Performance Costs You More Than You Think

On-time delivery matters. If delays cost you customers, you can’t afford to wait until renewal.

📊 Insight: One shipper identified a 9% spike in late deliveries – ParcelLytics helped secure refunds and adjustments to cut losses fast.

4. Real Savings Come from Smarter Shipping Strategies

The lowest rate doesn’t always mean the best cost. Zone skipping, regional carriers, and fulfillment optimizations drive deeper savings.

💡 Example: A retailer cut 15.3% in shipping costs by shifting volume to regional carriers – a move spotted by ParcelLytics.

5. Proactive Shippers Stay Ahead – Not Just Once a Year

The best shippers don’t wait for renewal to act – they optimize constantly. ParcelLytics provides ongoing insights to ensure your costs stay low, every day of the year.
