WMS / 3PL
The problem
3PL billing is a monthly reconstruction exercise in most operations: the account manager exports movements, applies rates in a spreadsheet, and invoices whatever the spreadsheet produces.
Anything the spreadsheet misses is revenue the warehouse performed and gave away — and because the omission repeats monthly, it compounds across the life of the contract.
