FASTRATES: Precision Pricing & Automated Billing
Pricing in logistics is a moving target. FASTRATES is our specialized rate management engine designed to align perfectly with FASTFREIGHT or ROADFREIGHT. It eliminates the manual struggle of managing complex LCL (Less than Container Load) and FCL (Full Container Load) rate cards, ensuring your billing is always accurate, timely, and client-specific.
By automating the "pricing to billing" pipeline, FASTRATES protects your margins and provides your clients with the transparency they expect.
Smart Rate Card Management
Stop digging through outdated spreadsheets. FASTRATES centralizes your pricing intelligence, allowing you to manage global and domestic rates with ease:
LCL & FCL Alignment: Whether you’re moving specialized road freight or international containers, the system manages the distinct variables of every shipment type.
Customer-Specific Logic: Assign unique rates to individual clients or groups, ensuring the system automatically applies negotiated discounts or tiered pricing.
Validity Control: Set "valid from" and "valid to" dates for your rates. The system automatically rolls over pricing, so you never accidentally bill on an expired quote.
Automated Client Broadcasting
Keep your clients in the loop without the administrative headache. FASTRATES acts as your digital communication hub:
Automated Rate Broadcasts: When pricing updates occur, the system can automatically broadcasts new rate cards to each client, ensuring they always have current figures.
Seamless Billing Sync: Because FASTRATES is integrated with our core operational suites, the "quoted rate" becomes the "billed rate" instantly. No double-entry, no manual invoicing errors.
Audit-Ready History: Maintain a full record of historical rates for every client, providing a clear trail for financial audits or contract reviews.
