Route & Cost Brief

One cargo, A to B, costed door to door with the routing the desk would use.

What you get. Two to three viable routings for one cargo between named origin and destination, each costed leg by leg: freight, handling, documentation and duty pointers, with transit times and the failure points on each option. The brief closes with the desk's recommended routing and why, including the case against it.

Who it is for. Importers and exporters moving a cargo on an unfamiliar lane, or testing whether the incumbent routing is still the right one.

Turnaround. Five working days.

Recommended next step. To put the routing out to carriers competitively, the Freight Procurement and RFQ Pack runs the tender.
