TOTAL FREIGHT MANAGEMENT

Jacobson Logistics Company, a specialist in 3rd party freight management, will tailor a program to suit our customer's specific business needs. Our program will control your freight costs and improve service from your vendors and to your customers.

When Jacobson Logistics handles your freight management/freight payment needs, you will benefit from:

  • Carrier Negotiations and Contracting - Jacobson's Freight Management program includes all aspects of carrier negotiation and contract management for all transportation modes - from parcel to international containers. We work only with the highest quality carriers who are pre-qualified through our Carrier Management and Development program. At the same time, we are able to offer competitive pricing by leveraging all our customers' shipping volumes and working with our core carriers to understand where each carrier can be the most competitive.
  • Mode Optimization - Our freight management program uses all available transportation modes to find the most cost-effective way to meet our customers' needs. This includes LTL consolidations both within a given customer's freight and between different customers' freight, pool point distribution and inbound pool point consolidations. We have the resources and expertise to find the most cost-effective way to meet our customers' service needs.
  • Analysis and Reporting - Jacobson Logistics provides useful, informative reports daily, weekly, monthly, or as often as requested. Our experienced analyst team constantly reviews customer freight activity and trends to look for freight optimization and cost containment opportunities.
  • Freight Payment Services - Our Freight Management program includes auditing of freight bills and carrier payment. We process your freight invoices and create a summary invoice for you that contains all of the shipment detail and any special general ledger coding you may need. Our auditing process guarantees you are paying the correct invoice amount for each and every shipment.
  • International Freight Services- We have the resources within our Freight Management group to handle 100% of your international freight needs. Our global relationships allow us to negotiate the best possible pricing for our customers, while at the same time meeting the delivery service requirements.
  • Dedicated Customer Service - For all of your routing needs you have a single point of contact, your Logistics Coordinator. When required, we place a logistics coordinator on-site to ensure your needs are being met.
