How TAN Freight Post Audit Works
Post Auditing "Freight" carriers is a very tedious and manual process that requires extensive experience and knowledge.
With the statute of limitations varying from six months to three years for erroneous charges on paid bills, TAN auditors move quickly to thoroughly review invoices and bills of lading from your carriers.
TAN's performs and in-depth post audit of your paid bills for motor, air, ocean and rail freight. We audit each invoice, line by line, to ensure that each and every charge was applied correctly. For every incorrect charge identified, TAN will submit an overcharge claim on your behalf and work with the carrier to refund all overcharges.
Carriers have a legal timeframe they are required to "Acknowledge" Receipt of the claim and either "Pay or Decline" the claim. If the carrier is outside these legal requirements, then TAN has an extensive Collections and Legal Department that holds the carrier accountable...making sure you receive the refunds due your company.
TAN's fees are 100% "Contigency" based. TAN does not get paid until your refunds have been recovered!
