Are You Carrying The Cost Of Supply Chain Inflation?

In today’s volatile global logistics environment, companies are facing rising transportation costs driven by a combination of fuel price fluctuations, geopolitical instability, and carrier-imposed surcharges. As major global providers such as DHL, FedEx, and DSV adjust pricing models to account for these disruptions, many organizations are seeing unexpected increases in their landed costs. However, not all of these charges are truly the responsibility of the shipper.

At Allyn, we help organizations cut through the complexity of modern freight billing by identifying “pass-thru” charges that are often embedded within invoices but may not be valid or properly allocated. These hidden or misapplied costs—ranging from fuel surcharges to accessorial and war risk adjustments—can quietly erode margins across a global logistics network.

Our approach combines deep data collection and validation with structured freight cost analysis to uncover inefficiencies and inconsistencies across carrier billing. By benchmarking against market indices and rebuilding cost structures, we provide clients with a clearer, more accurate view of what they should actually be paying versus what is being passed through.

Beyond identification, we translate insights into action. Through freight index development, cost modeling, and tailored reporting, we help organizations not only recover overpaid costs but also implement long-term strategies to prevent leakage and improve cost control moving forward.

In a market defined by constant disruption, visibility is power. Allyn helps transform opaque logistics spending into transparent, defensible cost structures—reducing unnecessary spend and strengthening financial performance across the supply chain.
