White Paper: When and Why Should I Cost Model?

Cost modelling is leveraged by the most competitive and profitable transportation organizations. Whether it is a private fleet for grocery deliveries, dedicated bulk tankers in the chemical industry or a retailer managing inbound via less-than-truckload (LTL) and parcel, cost modelling is the analysis to identify cost reduction opportunities. Understanding and developing an accurate and robust cost model enables a variety of analyses, based on everyday real-world use cases, to increase efficiencies and profitability within a transportation network.

This white paper outlines five different use case categories to leverage cost modelling:
• Accurate pricing
• Go-to-market analysis
• Cost-to-serve analysis
• Network modelling
• Transportation modelling
