Mezzanine Manufacturer Streamlines Logistics Processes and Cut Costs with ShipperGuide

• Challenge — Replace decentralized shipping operations — where four logistics coordinators each managed freight through personal email accounts, multiple spreadsheets, and even Word documents — that made reporting, identifying cost-reduction opportunities, tracking quotes, and matching the right carriers to specific lanes inefficient and difficult to keep straight.
• Opportunity — Implement a centralized NextGen TMS to streamline quoting, booking, and execution flows; enable project-based mini-bids; provide market-rate benchmarking for freight spend; and build team accountability through visibility into a single source of truth.
• Results — Steele Solutions, Inc. significantly reduced freight spend after a quick ShipperGuide implementation, with expenses trending down each month and moving closer to industry averages — delivering rapid ROI. The logistics team gained faster, easier reporting, the ability to benchmark spend against market rates, and the visibility and accountability needed to consistently drive toward the minimum rate.
