Planning & Procurement
Lane strategy, contract and spot bids, RFPs, and continuous benchmarking against market indexes.
For importers spending $2M–$30M a year on cross-border freight without the headcount to manage it properly. BorderFlow plans, executes, audits, and reports on every load — so your team runs the business instead of the spreadsheet.
Most "managed transportation" pitches are a software seat with a support line attached. Here's what actually changes when we run the program.
Everything below runs inside a single program — not six separate line items you have to coordinate yourself.
Lane strategy, contract and spot bids, RFPs, and continuous benchmarking against market indexes.
Tendering, dispatch, and border coordination end to end, with live visibility on both sides of the line.
Every invoice matched against contracted rate and proof of delivery before it's approved.
OTIF, OTD, cost-per-mile, and dwell time broken out by lane, carrier, and consignee.
Quarterly business reviews, routing guide audits, and carrier scorecards that keep the program improving.
Pedimentos, entry filings, and Zight's AI-assisted entry review run inside the same program.
Different roles feel the value differently. Here's what changes for each.
Disciplined procurement — contract and spot bids, RFPs, continuous benchmarking — instead of a rate you renewed on autopilot.
OTIF and OTD tracked at the carrier level and enforced through routing guide audits.
Document intelligence and freight audit automation without an internal build or IT project.
Cost per lane, carrier performance, and spend trends, formatted for leadership conversations.
One licensed, accountable partner instead of a dozen carriers, brokers, and point solutions.
Freight growth doesn't require a proportional hiring plan on your side.
Most importers run trucking on one system and customs on another — with a broker, a TMS, and a spreadsheet trying to talk to each other. BorderFlow puts both inside the same OS, so nothing gets re-entered twice and nothing goes dark at the handoff.
Trucking, drayage, and customs status live in one record. You're not logging into a broker's portal for entry status and a separate TMS for the truck.
The same shipment record carries the load from pickup in Mexico through customs clearance to final delivery — not two disconnected tracking views.
Document data captured for the customs entry feeds the same record used for dispatch, tracking, and freight audit — no duplicate data entry between teams.
We connect to your existing ERP — you're consolidating customs and freight onto one system with us, not tearing out everything else you use.
BorderFlow took over procurement, execution, and freight audit for their US-Mexico lanes — consolidating six vendors into one accountable team inside the first quarter.
Generic North American 4PLs bolt a US-Mexico lane onto software built for domestic freight. We built the program for this corridor first.
A licensed CBP customs broker in the US and a licensed Mexican Customs Broker, so the customs half of your program isn't a subcontractor we hope shows up.
When a document has a problem at 11pm at Laredo, someone from our team is there — not a support queue.
Entry filing and document intake run through our AI customs agent, not a manual re-key at every handoff.
