3PL Health Score
64
OUT OF 100
Healthy, with clear savings opportunities
Eight facets of your 3PL relationship, each scored 1-10 from your invoices, rate card and contract. Green is healthy, amber is an opportunity, red is a problem. Every score below a 7 is money or speed on the table.
CategoryScore What we saw
Billing Accuracy
Do the charges match the rate card?
4/10 Every order billed at the entry pick-and-pack tier when your monthly volume had earned a lower one. A recurring overcharge sits in each invoice. The full audit recovers it and back-applies prior months.
Rate Efficiency
Your effective $/package, normalized by zone & weight
6/10 Your per-package cost is consistent order to order, not marked up arbitrarily. Whether the markup itself is fair needs the carrier cost basis, flagged for the full audit.
Carrier & Service Selection
Right carrier & service level for each order
8/10 No express leakage: genuine air was a fraction of a percent of orders. Routing is cost-rational, ground carriers matched to the right regions.
Zone & Location Fit
Warehouse location vs where your customers are
7/10 Well sited for your core region, but a share of orders hit far and remote zones that ship pricier. The full audit models whether a second node pays.
Packaging & Dimensional Weight
Box size vs contents — are you shipping air?
7/10 Boxes broadly fit their contents. A couple of box sizes carry dimensional weight above actual, worth a packaging pass to trim.
Surcharge & Accessorial Load
Share of spend in residential / DAS / handling fees
7/10 Surcharges look in line; one remote-area charge, likely legitimate. The full breakout confirms how much is avoidable.
Cost to Ship (per order)
All-in fulfillment cost per order — the raw outcome
6/10 About $24 an order blended, driven almost entirely by the domestic shipping label, not pick-and-pack. The full audit tests how much is beatable.
Contract Terms & Transparency
Contract fairness & how auditable the invoices are
6/10 Invoices are itemized and foot to the penny. A few terms, minimums and annual escalators, are worth renegotiating at your next review.
What this is — and what's next
Your 1-day snapshot: where you're strong and where you're leaking money or speed, not the full dollar figures or the fixes. The Full Scoped Audit quantifies every flagged category in dollars, re-rates every shipment, models a second warehouse, and hands you a plan. Monthly Tracking then keeps the score honest and catches drift before it costs you.
Method. A directional diagnostic from a light pass over your uploaded invoices, rate card and (optional) contract, not the full per-shipment re-rate. Rate Efficiency is your effective cost per package normalized by zone and weight (not a rate-card comparison); Cost to Ship is your raw all-in cost per order. Scores describe the account as billed; the Full Scoped Audit provides the quantified figures and fixes.
