Lane and network optimization

Find the lanes, modes, and routes that are costing you the most

Your freight and parcel network evolves as your business does, but your carrier contracts and routing logic often don't keep up. ConData's network and lane optimization projects identify where your spend has drifted from what's optimal, and what to do about it. Every recommendation is validated with historical invoice and contract data.

Analyse lane-level spend across carriers to identify consolidation opportunities and rate outliers
Model modal shifts — LTL to truckload, parcel to LTL — based on your actual shipment profile
Identify high-frequency, low-weight shipments that can be bundled into lower cost-per-pound brackets

Carrier performance analysis

Benchmark carriers against your data, not industry averages

Industry benchmarks tell you what the market looks like. Your own data tells you what's actually happening inside your transportation network. ConData's carrier performance projects use your normalized spend data to reveal where carriers are delivering value — and where they're not.

Benchmark cost per pound, service levels, and accessorial charges across your carrier portfolio
Surface rate anomalies and outlier carriers that are increasing costs without matching volume
Build the evidence base for carrier rationalization, contract renegotiation, or RFP timing decisions

Strategic planning intelligence

Data-driven answers to your biggest logistics questions

Some decisions are too consequential for incomplete data. ConData's strategic optimization projects provide the analytical foundation for major logistics decisions — from distribution centre placement to shipment profile restructuring to long-term carrier strategy.

Warehouse and distribution centre location modelling informed by zone-level freight and parcel cost data
Shipment profile analysis that tracks year-over-year changes and triggers optimal RFP timing
Accessorial cost trending that surfaces emerging surcharges before they become line-item surprises

How it works

Every optimization project starts with your data and your question. ConData's consultants work alongside your team to scope, analyse, and deliver strategic recommendations.

Define the question

We work with your logistics, procurement, or finance team to scope the project around a specific business challenge — whether that's network optimization, carrier performance, cost allocation, or something unique to your operation.

Ingest and normalize data

We pull your freight and parcel data from existing systems — TMS, ERP, FAP providers, carrier portals — and normalize it into a single, analysis-ready dataset.

Analyse and model

Our consultants apply ConData's analytics platform and 70 years of rate intelligence to your data — running the analyses, building the models, and identifying the opportunities that matter most.

Deliver strategic recommendations

You receive actionable findings: specific lanes to consolidate, carriers to renegotiate, modal shifts to model, or network changes to evaluate — backed by your data, not assumptions.

Support implementation

We stay engaged as your team acts on recommendations — providing ongoing data, monitoring outcomes, and refining the analysis as your transportation network evolves.

One truck, too many charges: $2.2M recovered from over billing pattern discovered

What appeared at first glance to be standard billing activity quickly revealed a deeper, more costly issue. ConData’s audit team took a granular, line-level approach—cross-referencing shipment details, contract terms, actual movement data, and mode classifications.
