01 / Coverage
No blind spots by mode
Transportation means all of it.
The billing structures differ, but the audit principle does not: verify what was paid against the rate authority and the service actually provided.
LTL & truckload
Class, mileage, minimums, lanes, fuel, accessorials, and capacity loads.
Household goods
Relocation, storage, weight, valuation, and special-service charges.
Rail & intermodal
Linehaul, drayage, fuel, equipment, demurrage, and multimodal handoffs.
Ocean freight
Base freight, surcharges, port fees, detention, and international movement.
Air & expedited
Domestic and international air, express, time-critical, and courier services.
Customs & forwarding
Brokerage, duties, pass-through charges, documentation, and service fees.
Brokered & managed freight
3PL, freight forwarder, and pass-through billing verified to source records.
02 / Services
What we uncover
Small errors become serious money when they repeat.
Freight errors rarely announce themselves. They recur: a waived fee billed anyway, the wrong discount, an outdated rate base, a duplicate invoice, or a broker charge that does not match the carrier record.
Post-payment transportation audit
The paid population—not merely the invoices that are easiest to obtain—is independently re-rated and reconciled across every mode.
Contract, Title 49 & pricing compliance
Rates, classifications, tenders, tariffs, quotes, agreements, billing practices, and applicable Title 49 requirements are tested line by line.
Broker & 3PL verification
Internal rating is tested against the carrier's actual invoice, account, service, and rate authority. A billing party does not grade its own work.
Duplicate & double billing
Rebills, silent restatements, consolidated moves, capacity-load parents and children, credits, and repeated identifiers are reconciled to net paid.
Accessorials & surcharges
Fuel, detention, storage, liftgate, limited access, demurrage, and other fees are checked against effective dates, events, schedules, and waivers.
Claims & recovery
Overcharge, undercharge, and loss-and-damage issues are documented with the governing authority, evidence, calculation, and applicable deadline.
03 / Process
Zero disruption
You keep shipping. We work the paper.
Post-payment audit happens after the freight has moved and the invoice has been paid. Your day-to-day operation does not stop or change.
Define & gather
Establish the complete client-billed population, then obtain the underlying carrier invoices, contracts, tenders, quotes, and shipment records.
Re-rate & reconcile
Test every invoice against the effective authority, actual service, carrier charge, least-cost requirement, and net amount paid.
Prove
Resolve corrected bills, unavailable carrier invoices, credits, and false positives. Only findings that survive verification move forward.
Recover & correct
File and track supported claims, then identify the account, rate, workflow, or control that allowed the error to repeat.
Why Eagle
Independent evidence. Relentless thoroughness.
An audit is only as independent as its source. Eagle builds findings from the contracts, transportation records, invoices, and carrier-side evidence behind the charge—so the billing party is never grading its own homework.
- 100% of the invoice population audited, not a sample or spot check
- Every transportation mode included in scope
- Carrier-side actuals verified independently against what was billed and paid
- Client-billed charges flagged when the underlying carrier invoice cannot be obtained
- Findings quantified to the penny and tied to the effective rate authority
- Small systematic errors pursued because they compound over time
- Documentation designed for finance, audit, contracting, and oversight review
- Senior-auditor attention with small-business responsiveness
Government transportation audit
GSA delegated the authority. Agencies now own the outcome.
Effective July 2, 2025, federal agencies were delegated the authority to audit their own transportation bills, make deductions, and adjudicate related claims. GSA says it currently has no plans to exercise those powers. Eagle is already available through the Multiple Award Schedule.
