DIFOT Measurement Restoration and Procurement Leverage

FourKites restores DIFOT/OTIF measurement from Day 1 of deployment using real-time tracking data. Carrier scorecards feed directly into procurement workflows, so RFP evaluations can score carriers on verified on-time performance, tracking compliance, and exception frequency.

DIFOT Measurement Restoration and Procurement Leverage

What we deliver

The Problem (Before)

Companies that once measured delivery performance (DIFOT, OTIF) through legacy systems lose that KPI the moment they migrate off them. And the carrier performance data being captured is rarely fed back into procurement bids and RFP scoring — a missed chance to negotiate better rates using objective, verified data.

Who feels this:

Supply Chain Manager, Transportation Manager

The Outcome (After)

FourKites restores DIFOT/OTIF measurement from Day 1 of deployment using tracking data. Carrier scorecards are integrated into procurement workflows so RFP evaluations include FourKites-verified on-time performance, tracking compliance, and exception frequency as scoring criteria.

What makes this different:

FourKites' network-scale carrier performance data provides objective benchmarking that no single shipper can achieve alone, making FourKites data a procurement weapon, not just an operations tool.

How it works

The building blocks behind this outcome.
What Happens

By restoring delivery performance measurement and integrating it into procurement decisions, FourKites converts visibility data into direct freight rate negotiation leverage.

The Intelligence Behind It

Carrier performance benchmarks and lane-level reliability data across the network.

This intelligence exists because the Graph aggregates behavior across 882 enterprise shippers, 10,164 carriers, and 3.6 million facilities over 11 years.

Why This Cannot Be Replicated

FourKites' network-scale carrier performance data provides objective benchmarking that no single shipper can achieve alone, making FourKites data a procurement weapon, not just an operations tool. The intelligence layer is what creates the gap. Any analytics tool can query your data. Only FourSight queries the Graph: 11 years of cross-company intelligence that cannot be replicated with software alone.
