Digitizing freight billing and audit for faster & error-free invoicing

Pando's Freight Audit & Payment solution enabled the organization's carriers to raise legally-tenable GST-compliant invoices on the platform. With an inbuilt rate manager and digital audit trail of documents, Pando helped the organization streamline and automate the invoice reconciliation, payment, and provisioning process. This in turn helped the organization provide cost-accounting for per unit of freight charges. Today, the organization is also able to gain benefits out of dynamic discounting and trip financing which are baked into Pando's platform.
