Our Process

At STI, the entire bill processing cycle is broken down into convenient step-by-step stages and automated, as follows -

• Important data, such as freight rates and other contractual terms, negotiated by your company are stored in a secure master database.
• Scanned images or electronic files of bills of lading and incoming freight bills are sent to the STI processing team, or accessed from your servers directly, through a secure virtual private network (VPN).
• When bills are received for processing, our team extracts the relevant data from bills of lading and generates fresh freight invoices as per prescribed formats.
• Bills of lading are matched against the respective freight bills, sorted by date, carrier and category.
• These are then mapped against the master database where contractual rates and terms are housed.
• A 100% pre-payment audit on all freight bills validates bill details such as quantity and weight, unit price/rate, sub-totals and totals, taxes, and other charges.
• Validated bills are then forwarded for processing payments.

STI quick turnarounds, validation, and quality checks help 3PLs process freight bills on time, cut costs on infrastructure and resources and save thousands of dollars, otherwise lost due to bill errors and making payments over and above the actual monies due.

An additional benefit of using STI bill processing services is the amount of useful data that can be analyzed to understand how your logistics business is faring vis a vis strategic objectives, the markets you operate in, which career services are profitable, etc.
