Optimize DLA delivery time
The Defense Logistics Agency motto is “Around the Clock, Around the World.” As a DLA vendor, you are expected to perform by this motto and get all parcels sent to DLA customers quickly and efficiently. Under its Premium Service partnership with the DLA, FedEx guarantees CONUS delivery within 24 hours and OCONUS delivery within 48 hours. However, errors occur and result in cost losses for your company. When you sign up for Share A Refund, every parcel sent through FedEx as well as UPS and DHL will be analyzed. If a parcel is even one minute late, a refund claim will be filed. All of these late deliveries are tracked in the dashboard where you can view them. Charts and reports allow you to see where and when carriers are most frequently failed to meet their guaranteed delivery times. Armed with shipping analytics, you can better pool shipping carriers and choose the options which prove most reliable. Not only do you improve relationships with DLA contacts by meeting delivery times, but you also immediately save money on shipping by negotiating better contracts with carriers, reducing paperwork, and tapping into parcel refunds. Share A Refund works as an add-on to your existing TMS and costs absolutely nothing to use.
