MarginLens Score™ — like a credit score, but for your shipping operation
Why a Score?
FICO Changed How We Think About Credit.
We're Doing the Same for Shipping.

Before FICO, lenders guessed. After FICO, everyone had a number. Before MarginLens, companies guessed where their shipping money went. Now you get a single, weighted composite score across 7 operational dimensions.

FICO Score
Measures creditworthiness across payment history, utilization, length, mix, and inquiries
MarginLens Score™
Measures shipping health across mode, carrier, service, network, DIM, accessorial, and compliance

The MarginLens Diagnostic Framework
Seven Margin Pillars. One Complete Picture.
Every diagnostic analyzes shipping operations through seven distinct lenses. Each reveals a different category of margin leakage with specific, dollar-quantified findings. Hover each pillar to explore.
Mode
71
$47,599
20%
Mode Optimization
What we analyze
Every shipment scored for optimal mode — parcel vs. LTL vs. TL — based on weight, density, distance, and dimensions across all carriers.
Real finding
"412 shipments moved LTL when parcel was cheaper based on density analysis. Annual impact: $47,599."
Carrier
79
$33,926
18%
Carrier Benchmarking
What we analyze
Rate competitiveness across carriers, lanes, zones, and service levels. Lane-level cost comparison to identify where you’re overpaying vs. market benchmarks.
Real finding
"FedEx Ground rates 16% above UPS on top 5 lanes by volume. Shifting 30% of volume saves $33,926/yr."
Service
73
$45,421
15%
Service Level Alignment
What we analyze
Paying for speed you don’t need. Express and overnight shipments evaluated against actual delivery SLAs, urgency flags, and customer requirements.
Real finding
"260 Express shipments delivered to zones reachable by Ground in 2 days. Downgrading saves $45,421/yr."
Network
91
$12,961
15%
Network Design
What we analyze
Origin optimization, zone-skipping opportunities, consolidation potential, and geographic distribution efficiency across your shipping network.
Real finding
"Shipping from NJ to West Coast crosses 4 zones. Repositioning origin to TX hub cuts transit and saves $12,961/yr."
DIM
83
$27,276
12%
DIM & Packaging
What we analyze
Dimensional weight penalties from oversized packaging, void fill waste, and box-to-product size mismatch. Every shipment checked for DIM vs. actual weight ratio.
Real finding
"57% of shipments have DIM weight exceeding actual by 2x+. Right-sizing top 5 SKUs saves $27,276/yr."
Accessorial
82
$28,948
10%
Accessorial Management
What we analyze
Avoidable surcharges: residential delivery, liftgate, inside delivery, redelivery, address correction, and signature fees. Each evaluated for necessity.
Real finding
"$28,948 in accessorial charges — 34% were avoidable. Residential reclassification and liftgate pre-auth save the most."
Compliance
88
$17,682
10%
Contract Compliance
What we analyze
Billing errors, rate misapplication, duplicate charges, contracted discount non-compliance, and cost outliers that deviate from expected pricing.
Real finding
"63 shipments billed 40%+ above peer average. Rate tier misapplication and duplicate invoice charges total $17,682/yr."

Scores shown are from a sample diagnostic. Your results will reflect your specific shipping data and operational profile.
