The reality facing today’s Procurement teams

Freight markets are volatile, opaque, and increasingly difficult to negotiate. Procurement teams are under pressure to:

Negotiate competitive rates in volatile freight markets

Prove savings and performance versus the market

Balance cost, service, and risk in tender decisions

Yet negotiations are often based on indices, surveys, historic contracts, or supplier narratives, making it hard to know whether outcomes reflect real market conditions.

 

This is where Xeneta provides clarity.

Clear visibility into how negotiated rates compare to the market

“Without the platform, we’d be blind going into the market. Xeneta helps us negotiate better and track savings in the range of 3-5% which accounts for a multi-million-dollar spend when you consider our scale.”
