As presented under our Training and Coaching topic, one of Platform3Resarch' fundamental philosophies is to develop the necessary knowledge
and skills within our client's team members so they are able to more effectively conduct their primary business activities. Platform3Research
does not negotiate contracts or rates with carriers on behalf of our clients, but rather we arm you with the inside knowledge that comes with the
many years rail industry experience of our associates.
We analyze the service rates, tariffs, contracts and various ancillary and assessorial charges to which your organization may be subject. These
would include but are not limited to transport or carriage rates, applicable tariffs, storage and demurrage charges, railroad or third-party switching
charges, and leased track charges. Following the analysis phase, our team will walk you through various alternatives and help you to evaluate your
options and strategies surrounding the aforementioned items. Platform3Research' experts will help you in understanding negotiating positions from the
carrier's underlying objectives and points-of-view. Our aim is to better equip you with the necessary data, tools and alternatives allowing your
organization to achieve the best possible outcome during negotiations. Where applicable, the concept of service guarantees and/or service failure
penalties will be evaluated as a method to insure your transportation needs are met without adverse cost, impact or disruption to your operations.
Knowledge is power, and our aim is to load your arsenal with the most effective weapons before you reach a carrier or third party's negotiating table.
