Pharma freight runs on cold chain, cryogenic, and courier networks with SOX-compliant audit requirements. Generic freight audit can't handle the regulatory complexity. Freehand's AI Teams validate every charge across temperature-controlled, validated routes, and specialty carriers — closing the period with verified data.
Temperature-controlled shipments carry premium fees, monitoring charges, validated routing requirements.
Cryogenic, validated, courier carriers each invoice in unique formats with non-standard accessorials.
Every payment requires audit trail — invoice, shipment, rate, approval. Manual processes can't keep pace.
Validated routes carry premium pricing. Without contract validation, premium drift compounds.
Specialty carriers, freight forwarders, courier networks — thousands of invoices monthly.
Manual audit + complex GL coding + SOX trail creates month-end close bottlenecks.
