The problem
Every quote was assembled by hand from carrier rate sheets in email. Turnaround averaged three days, and roughly one in six quotes went out with a pricing error the ops team had to absorb.
What we did
- Mapped the full quoting path with the ops team before designing anything
- Built a rate engine ingesting carrier sheets on a schedule, with versioned pricing
- Shipped a customer portal for self-serve quotes, booking and shipment status
- Added margin guardrails that flag any quote below threshold for approval
