Parcel Rate/Contract Negotiation Services


Parcel negotiation services give your business the advantage of expert guidance when dealing with carriers. Why tackle carrier negotiations alone when PMAC’s industry reputation and expertise are already highly regarded? We provide valuable support with service evaluation and strategy development so you can focus on running your business. In addition, our deep understanding of each carrier’s pricing structure allows us to help you secure the most favorable contract tailored to your unique shipping needs. By combining industry knowledge with practical data, PMAC empowers you to approach negotiations with confidence.

To assist you in assessing each carrier, PMAC creates a detailed report that highlights your specific shipping behaviors. This report identifies which carrier best matches your requirements and offers the strongest potential for savings. Moreover, our process ensures that you have complete visibility into the factors influencing your shipping costs, from volume and zones to surcharges and accessorial fees. With this insight, you can negotiate based on facts rather than assumptions.

Using our extensive database of past shipping data and proprietary analysis tools, PMAC presents your shipping profile in a clear and actionable format. Carriers respond more favorably when they see well-organized, data-driven reports that demonstrate your shipping value. As a result, you gain leverage that leads to better rates and stronger service commitments. Instead of entering negotiations uncertain, you will be equipped with solid data and a partner who knows how to maximize your outcomes.
