It allows you to identify areas where it's possible to improve efficiency or reduce costs. A freight audit can be done manually or by using software, but it should be conducted by someone who has experience working with businesses of your scale and reach.

The purpose of a freight audit is to provide insight into the current state of your supply chain processes and capabilities. It can be used as a tool to help you identify areas where improvements could be made, so that you can implement them in order to improve efficiencies, cost reduction and quality.

A freight audit is an objective evaluation of your entire supply chain, including inventory management, transportation planning, compliance with industry regulations and standards as well as other operational practices or procedures. The goal is to identify opportunities for improvement so that they can be addressed before they become problems down the road!

• Improve efficiency: A strong freight audit program will help you achieve better data input quality, accuracy, integrity and security. This means that all of your records are accurate and up to date (and the system allows for easy retrieval). The result is a more efficient business operation where employees can get the information they need quickly without having to spend time searching for it themselves.
• Reduce costs: A strong freight audit program will allow you to identify potential problems before they occur so that they don't become major problems later on in production or storage processes. This saves money by preventing costly mistakes from happening multiple times throughout your business cycle—or even worse yet!

It can also help to improve data input quality and accuracy.

The use of freight auditing can also help to improve data input quality and accuracy. Data input quality refers to the accuracy with which a company enters its data into their ERP system. By using a freight audit software, it will provide you with a report on how accurate your information is being entered into your system. This can be beneficial because if there are errors or problems with how an item was entered, then those are likely going to show up in other parts of your ERP system (such as invoices).

In addition, if all of your employees are entering information accurately when they receive an invoice from another department or vendor, then this will result in more accurate accounts receivable reports being generated by those departments/vendors who have been using freight audits for years now!

A freight audit is a great way to identify the areas where you need to focus on improving your processes and costs. It will also help you identify any gaps, weak points, or opportunities for improvement on your supply chain.

It is important that businesses take the time before they start thinking about how much money they can save by implementing new processes or technology into their existing business model if at all possible because this will give them a better understanding of what needs doing before moving forward with anything else such as implementing an ERP system for example which could cost thousands of dollars per year depending on how complicated it would be so make sure whatever decision(s) are made based off these findings rather than just going ahead with something without knowing first-hand what works best!
