Recover Lost Margin.
Protect Every Dollar.
Freight audit, claims recovery, payment optimization, and cash flow strategy for eCommerce, retail, and consumer brands tired of leaving money on the table.
The Problem
The Margin Leak Most Businesses Don't See
Approximately 2–5% of total freight spend leaks through billing errors, unrecovered claims, and poor payment terms. For a company spending $10M on freight, that's $200K–$500K walking out the door every year.
- ✗ Carrier invoices accepted at face value without line-by-line audit
- ✗ Claims filed only for obvious damage; service failures ignored
- ✗ Payment timing never used as a strategic lever
- ✗ AR/AP treated as back-office functions with no strategic value
FlexChain's Approach
Systematic Recovery & Cash Optimization
FlexChain treats cash recovery as a system, not a one-time audit. Continuous monitoring, systematic claims, and strategic payment optimization.
- ✓ Every invoice audited against contract terms: duplicates, wrong rates, and accessorial padding caught
- ✓ Claims filed, tracked, and escalated systematically. No write-offs
- ✓ Payment terms optimized to free trapped cash and capture discounts
- ✓ AR/AP process improvement to reduce DSO and improve collection velocity
