As CFOs take a greater role in supply chain decisions, shippers need more than internal data to defend their logistics budgets. This guide explains how combining freight market intelligence with internal metrics creates the cost transparency executives demand — from benchmarking procurement performance against real-time market rates to contextualizing cost increases against fuel prices, inflation, and demand shifts. Includes practical guidance on communicating supply chain value to financial leaders who aren’t SCM experts.
