A standardized document provides instructions for selecting carriers based on factors such as destination, shipment type, and service level. It typically includes preferred carrier lists, contact information, rate tables, and specific routing instructions for various scenarios. This document serves as a central resource for logistics teams, ensuring consistency and efficiency in transportation decisions.

Utilizing such a document can lead to cost savings through optimized carrier selection and negotiated rates. It also promotes improved on-time delivery performance by providing clear and concise instructions, minimizing confusion and delays. Furthermore, standardized procedures contribute to enhanced compliance with carrier contracts and service level agreements. Streamlined communication between stakeholders, including shippers, carriers, and warehouses, is another key advantage.
