CzarLite® | The Base Rate Standard for LSPs
LSPs choose most widely used LTL base rate in North America
Evaluating multiple carriers for your customers’ less-than-truckload shipments is like comparing apples to oranges unless you start with a neutral, benchmark rate. CzarLite® from SMC³ is the industry benchmark for thousands of LTL contracts that account for billions of dollars in managed transportation each year.
Providing unrivaled accuracy and usability, the CzarLite® family of base rates empowers LSPs to:
- Negotiate across carriers and on behalf of multiple customers using the same base rate system to ensure total pricing visibility
- Quickly evaluate the impact of carrier rate adjustments, discounts and FAK classifications
- Manage both traditional classification-based and density-based shipment pricing to adapt to global business standards
- Streamline LTL rate negotiations by reducing or eliminating the need for ambiguous discount structures
- Easily access and integrate benchmark rates into your business systems and technology platforms
CzarLite®, SMC³’s next generation pricing system, represents the industry’s most advanced benchmark base rate available. CzarLite®:
- Incorporates modern market freight flow patterns and high cost areas, reflecting the most current economic and geographic complexities of North American’s many regions
- Reflects analysis of 116.8 million freight bills from 33 of the largest LTL carriers, a data set unique to SMC³
- Is modeled by industry leading data scientists at SMC³, based on more than 80 years of LTL experience
