We Keep Your Contract Working After the Ink Dries
Negotiating a strong contract is only half the job. Carriers raise base rates every year and adjust surcharges, fuel tables, and fees throughout it — while discounts lapse and agreements auto-renew on their terms. None of it triggers an alert.
ICC manages your agreements against 50+ years of rate intelligence, holding carriers to what they signed and flagging every gap between your contract and your invoices.
Confirm every invoice matches your contracted rates and terms.
Catch missed discounts and earned incentives before they lapse.
Block unintended auto-renewals that lock in weak terms.
Cap or eliminate annual rate increases through multi-year terms.
Protect your terms with confidentiality and liability provisions.
A Pricing Agreement Isn’t a Contract
Most shippers don’t realize what they’ve actually signed. A true transportation contract locks in your terms; a pricing agreement lets the carrier change them at will — and that difference quietly costs you.
Pricing Agreements Shift
A pricing agreement lets carriers change rates and terms without your approval. What looked like a good deal can erode shipment after shipment, with nothing to stop it.
Rates Compound
The headline rate increase runs about 6% a year — but surcharge and fee hikes push the real cost to 8–12%. Without terms that cap them, a strong contract quietly becomes expensive.
Auto-Renewals Lock In
Agreements renew on the carrier’s terms unless someone’s watching the window. Miss it, and you’re committed to another cycle of rates you never re-negotiated.
Real Client Results Terms Held. Savings Protected.
ICC’s value isn’t theoretical. Clients hold carriers to their agreements and keep the savings they negotiated — across every mode and carrier relationship.

Every Term Enforced. Every Dollar Protected.
ICC doesn’t just negotiate your contract and walk away. We manage it for its full life, so the terms you fought for hold up on every invoice going forward.
Billing Accuracy
We confirm every invoice matches your contracted rates and terms, shipment by shipment, across your parcel and freight carriers.
Discount Control
We make sure every earned discount and incentive is applied — so none of your negotiated savings quietly goes unclaimed.
Renewal Protection
We track renewal windows and block unintended auto-renewals, so you never get locked into another cycle of weak terms.
Ongoing Monitoring
We monitor your contract throughout its life, surfacing savings opportunities and rate creep as they arise, not after they’ve cost you.
