By utilizing this solution, businesses can optimize their spend and position themselves as preferred shippers. This proactive approach ensures that controllable expenses are managed efficiently and effectively.

Manage Detention & Demurrage Costs

Unforeseen costs should no longer be a norm in business operations.

With this solution, businesses can gain visibility into truck unloading or ocean container movements, enabling them to take timely actions to reduce detention and demurrage costs.

Prevent Revenue-draining OTIF Charges

To prevent On-Time In-Full (OTIF) failures and associated charges, companies need accurate and timely data.

FourKites simplifies this process by providing customized detention alerts that combine in-transit and at-facility dwell times. By tracking free time accurately, businesses can reduce detention spend and time, ensuring they have a comprehensive view of all relevant charges.

Enhance Collaboration with Carriers
