In today’s rapidly shifting freight market, organizations managing Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) transportation face rising costs, inconsistent carrier performance, and limited visibility. Many logistics teams are stretched thin, reacting to challenges instead of proactively controlling them.

That’s where a Managed LTL Service becomes a strategic advantage.

At Business Solutions Group, we built our Managed LTL program to give companies a smarter, data-driven, and fully transparent way to reduce costs, strengthen carrier networks, and gain lasting operational confidence—without adding internal workload or budget.

In today’s competitive landscape, controlling operating expenses isn’t just good practice—it’s essential for growth. For many Enterprise and B2B organizations, merchant services fees represent one of the most overlooked opportunities for significant savings. Credit card processing, ACH payments, and the technology that supports them are core to revenue operations, but they can quietly drain your bottom line if not optimized.

That’s where Business Solutions Group comes in.

In today’s volatile freight market, shippers face consistent pressure: Do more with less, reduce transportation costs, improve performance, and create true supply-chain visibility.

But most organizations are still trapped in outdated LTL strategies—manual processes, limited market intelligence, underperforming carrier agreements, and technology investments they can’t fully leverage.

That’s exactly why the LTL Savings Solution from Business Solutions Group was built. It’s not just another audit service, not a tech subscription, and not a one-time RFP project. It’s a comprehensive, multi-layered, data-driven LTL optimization programthat delivers measurable savings and supports your team every step of the way.

In a freight market where margins matter and transportation costs continue to rise, LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) negotiation has become both an art and a science. For many companies, securing competitive rates isn’t just about asking for discounts—it's about understanding the market, leveraging data, and executing a well-crafted strategy.

That’s exactly where Business Solutions Group steps in.

In today’s parcel-driven economy, your small-package carrier agreements with UPS and FedEx directly impact your bottom line. Yet few shippers truly know whether they’re receiving market-appropriate rates—or leaving massive savings on the table.

That’s where Business Solutions Group becomes your greatest competitive advantage.

For many B2B companies, credit card processing is a necessary part of doing business—but it’s often far more complicated (and costly) than it needs to be. Finance teams frequently struggle with unclear pricing, missing data, slow funding, and technology limitations that create unnecessary administrative work and inflated processing fees.

At Business Solutions Group, we help organizations diagnose and solve these challenges every day. Below are the top 10 problems B2B finance teams commonly face with their card processors—along with the causes behind them and how to resolve them.

Payment processing is one of those behind-the-scenes functions that most businesses don’t think about—until something goes wrong. But here’s the real issue: even if nothing seems “wrong,” your business could still be losing money every single month.

Telecom expense often hides in plain sight. As services evolve and new technologies are added, telecom bills can balloon without anyone noticing — until it’s too late. Business Solutions Group specializes in making the invisible visible, helping companies unlock telecom savings they didn’t realize were there.

Most businesses focus on throughput and delivery times in their logistics operations — often at the expense of cost efficiency. But at Business Solutions Group, we believe that operational excellence and cost optimization can go hand in hand.

Most business owners don’t wake up thinking about how processing fees impact profitability — but they should. Even a seemingly small percentage reduction can translate into tens of thousands of dollars in annual savings for organizations with significant transaction volume. That’s why Business Solutions Group approaches credit card fee optimization with both depth and nuance.

Telecommunications touches nearly every part of a business — from mobile plans to cloud services, security, and data connections. Yet, many companies lack the tools or expertise to fully understand what they’re paying for or whether they’re paying too much. That’s where Business Solutions Group brings clarity.

For many businesses, credit card processing fees are treated as an unavoidable cost of doing business. But the reality is that these fees can often be optimized significantly — without compromising payment flexibility or customer experience. At Business Solutions Group, our experts help companies decode and manage these costs with precision.

In most organizations, shipping and supply chain expenses are accepted as a necessary cost of doing business — but what if they could be transformed into a strategic advantage instead? At Business Solutions Group, we help companies uncover hidden cost drivers in shipping and logistics that traditional internal teams often overlook.

For many businesses, credit card processing fees are a necessary cost of doing business — but that doesn’t mean they’re optimized. These fees, which occur with every transaction your business accepts, can represent a significant drag on net revenue if not thoughtfully managed.

Telecommunications touch virtually every part of modern business: voice, data, cloud services, security, network access, mobile connectivity — yet the way companies manage these services often overlooks significant savings opportunities.

In today’s business environment, shipping and supply chain expenses are more than just line items on a ledger — they’re potential levers for competitive advantage. Many companies spend millions on parcel, freight, and logistics services each year, yet most lack the visibility or expertise to truly understand where savings are hiding. That’s where a fresh perspective becomes invaluable.

A large organization’s IT department faced increasing challenges managing a rapidly expanding mobile environment that included thousands of devices, all while operating with limited internal resources.

Managed mobile lifecycle services for just $5.50 per device per month

Enterprise mobility is mission-critical — but managing it is increasingly complex. Device sprawl, security and privacy concerns, rising costs, cross-platform support, and staff turnover all strain IT and finance teams.

- Unlimited user licenses

Never has the strain on IT departments been more keenly felt as it is today. Business Solutions Group has spent nearly two decades assisting IT departments in the management of their IT spending. You can conquer the challenges central to every IT asset across all categories of IT spend. And, with each of our solutions, we deliver three business values that are essential today:

1. Time – focus on things that matter

2. Information – make better decisions faster

3. Money – create savings and shareholder value

For many organizations, shipping and logistics costs quietly grow year over year. Carrier rate increases, added surcharges, service changes, and inefficient processes can all add up — often without clear visibility into where the money is actually going. Without the right data or expertise, businesses may assume rising costs are unavoidable.

Reducing parcel shipping costs isn’t about one-time discounts or quick wins—it’s about following a disciplined, repeatable process that delivers measurable, sustainable savings. That’s exactly how we work.

Our process is designed to remove guesswork, minimize disruption, and keep you fully informed at every stage—while we do the heavy lifting behind the scenes.

For most organizations, parcel shipping is one of the largest and least transparent operating expenses. Carriers provide invoices and reports—but rarely the full picture. Without clear visibility into shipment-level data, overspending often goes unnoticed, and cost recovery opportunities slip through the cracks.

That’s where Parcel Spend Intelligence (PSI) changes the game.

You wouldn’t undergo a major surgery without a skilled, experienced surgeon. So why would you approach UPS or FedEx contract negotiations without an expert team on your side?

Parcel contract negotiations are far more complex than they appear. While many organizations feel confident in their ability to negotiate, confidence alone doesn’t equal leverage—and in shipping contracts, what you don’tknow can cost you significantly.

Credit-card and ACH statements often look like a foreign language—codes, categories, assessments, interchange tables, gateway fees, and unexplained monthly charges. This complexity keeps most businesses from understanding what they’re actually paying.

Business Solutions Group (BSG) brings clarity to the chaos, helping companies decode their fees and discover meaningful savings.

Telecom is one of the least transparent areas of business spend. Multiple carriers, scattered contracts, and decentralized billing make it almost impossible to understand what you’re actually paying for.

Too many organizations treat shipping spend as a black box — invoices go out, payments go through, and leaders assume everything is accurate.

But without visibility into each mode, carrier, shipment detail, and charge code, companies lose thousands (or millions) annually.

Many executives want to reduce shipping costs but don’t know where to start. A logistics benchmark analysis is the most effective first step — because it reveals your savings potential before you spend a dollar.

Increases to fuel fee calculations have been a key contributor to escalating shipping costs in 2025.

Has your business ever suddenly paid more in credit-card or ACH processing fees—without changing anything? You’re not alone. Hundreds of businesses experience “statement shock” due to obscure surcharges, mid-year pricing updates, or new assessments quietly added by processors.

Business Solutions Group (BSG) specializes in identifying why fees spike—and how to permanently eliminate surprise charges.

Telecom billing errors are far more common than most organizations realize. Carriers process millions of transactions every month — mistakes are inevitable. The real issue: businesses rarely detect them.

Rate shopping is a common starting point for companies trying to reduce shipping costs — but relying on rates alone leaves 20–40% in potential savings untouched.

The businesses winning in 2025 aren’t just looking for cheaper freight. They’re optimizing how they buy, manage, analyze, and audit transportation.

Businesses rely on smooth, convenient payment experiences to keep customers happy. But convenience often hides expensive inefficiencies—outdated gateways, redundant tools, and unnecessary monthly fees that slowly drain profitability. Many companies simply don’t know what they’re paying for anymore.

Business Solutions Group (BSG) helps businesses rethink their payment setup so convenience and cost-efficiency can finally work together.

For many growing companies, managing transportation internally can become overwhelming — from rate negotiations to carrier management to freight audits. That’s where Managed Transportation Services can deliver both efficiency and savings.

While credit cards are convenient, ACH (Automated Clearing House) payments are often a far more cost-effective option for recurring and B2B transactions. Optimizing the balance between credit-card and ACH payments can significantly reduce fees.

It’s common for companies to unknowingly pay for unused phone lines, circuits, or wireless devices — often for years. Without visibility, these “ghost costs” quietly drain your budget.

Accessorial charges are among the most overlooked areas of freight overspend. Fuel surcharges, liftgate fees, reclassifications, and detention time can silently eat into margins — unless they’re actively managed.

Using Excel to manage specialized supply chain operations like parcel shipping, inventory management, or demand planning may seem like a frugal choice. But it isn't. Just like negotiating your own small parcel contracts, mixing too many spreadsheets with your supply chain is always a bad idea.

Global disruptions, fuel cost volatility, and labor shortages have exposed how fragile many supply chains really are. Resilience isn’t about reacting faster — it’s about building systems that adapt automatically.

It’s easy for payment processing fees to slip under the radar. Without careful monitoring, businesses can overpay thousands of dollars annually. Small overlooked details—like outdated contracts, hidden surcharges, or inefficient transaction routing—add up quickly.

When companies hear “telecom cost reduction,” they often think only about lowering bills. But true telecom optimization creates far greater value — it improves efficiency, strengthens vendor management, and supports scalable growth.

In today’s fast-moving logistics environment, visibility alone isn’t enough — it’s how you use that visibility that defines success. Companies that transform freight data into strategy gain a measurable competitive edge.

Global supply chains are more complex than ever. With volatile shipping costs, port delays, and unpredictable capacity, companies need a smarter, integrated strategy to stay competitive.

Many businesses stick with familiar merchant service providers without reviewing costs, often resulting in unnecessary fees. Recognizing the warning signs can unlock significant savings.

Telecom is no longer just about phone lines. Today, it encompasses wireless, wireline, cloud-based communications, and even cybersecurity. Aligning your telecom strategy with business growth is essential to prevent overspending and ensure operational efficiency.

You might think your shipping invoices are accurate — but statistics show that 1 in 5 contain errors. Those mistakes add up quickly, silently inflating your logistics spend. That’s why invoice audit and recovery is one of the most powerful yet overlooked tools for cost reduction.

Global commerce is growing faster than ever, and businesses want to expand into new markets. However, international and multi-channel payments can lead to rising processing costs if not managed strategically. Business Solutions Group (BSG) helps companies scale globally while controlling fees.

Managing telecom manually—with spreadsheets, emails, and scattered invoices—is inefficient and costly. SaaS platforms offer a centralized, automated solution to track and manage expenses across wireless, wireline, and cloud services.

The logistics industry generates more data than ever before — but without the right tools, it’s just noise. Business Intelligence (BI) transforms that data into actionable insights that can redefine how your organization operates.

Credit cards often steal the spotlight when discussing payment processing, but ACH payments—automated bank transfers—are an undervalued opportunity for cost savings. Businesses that optimize ACH usage can enjoy lower fees, fewer chargebacks, and more predictable transaction costs.

Most businesses review telecom expenses annually, yet hidden costs often go unnoticed. These “silent drainers” can add up to thousands or even millions of dollars over time.

The modern supply chain doesn’t stop — and neither should your visibility. As businesses juggle multiple carriers, transport modes, and global delivery expectations, the need for a connected, intelligent Transportation Management System (TMS) has never been greater.

Many businesses accept credit-card and ACH payments without fully understanding how much they could save. Merchant fees can quietly eat into profits, yet few companies take the time to review statements or benchmark costs. Business Solutions Group specializes in uncovering hidden levers to reduce fees, helping businesses save without compromising service.

Many businesses focus on supply chain, labor, or operational costs when looking to reduce expenses—but telecom costs are often overlooked. Yet, telecom services can represent a significant portion of a company’s monthly spend. A strategic Telecom Expense Management (TEM) program can save businesses 20–50% on wireless, wireline, and cloud services while improving operational efficiency.

In today’s complex logistics landscape, managing shipping costs can feel like trying to hit a moving target. Carriers adjust rates annually, surcharges shift without warning, and capacity fluctuations can wreak havoc on even the most well-planned budgets. The good news? There are proven, data-driven strategies that deliver real, sustainable savings across your supply chain.

More than a month after FedEx revealed its 5.9% General Rate Increase (GRI) effective January 5, 2026, UPS has followed suit with a matching headline increase. However, UPS will implement its new rates two weeks earlier—on December 22, 2025.

While the headline number may appear identical, the details tell a different story. UPS’s adjustments vary significantly across services, weights, and zones, meaning the real-world impact will differ for every shipper. Understanding these nuances will be crucial to controlling costs in 2026.

In today’s economy, businesses are being challenged to do more with less. Rising costs, tightening margins, and unpredictable market conditions are forcing leadership teams to take a closer look at every dollar that leaves the company.

The reality? Most organizations are paying more than they should for essential services — from shipping and telecom to payment processing. These expenses quietly chip away at profitability every single month.

That’s where Business Solutions Group (BSG) steps in.

The president is pushing back a previously planned implementation date for the 25% levies, per a Monday social media post.

Companies often overspend on shipping and logistics without realizing it, as hidden fees, complex contracts, and inefficiencies quietly erode margins. Business Solutions Group helps organizations uncover these hidden costs through data-driven analysis, smarter carrier negotiations, and tailored supply chain solutions. With average savings of 23.6% this year, our clients not only reduce expenses but also gain greater visibility, efficiency, and confidence in their operations—proving that supply chain optimization can deliver both immediate and lasting value.

The new levies, ranging from 25% to 100%, will go into effect Oct. 1, the president said Thursday.

The fees, active during the peak holiday shipping season, will build upon the pricing pressures shippers are set to face during the critical Q4 stretch.

The peak season fees will build upon rate hikes the UPS business installed in May after its U.S. Postal Service contract expired.

The announcement of the increases, which start on Jan. 5, comes as shippers are weathering elevated delivery costs.

Parcel shipping is cyclical in many critical ways. Supply chains that fail to stay ahead of market changes and trends risk falling behind competitors or, worse yet, losing touch with customers. Some of the cycles small package shippers face are predictable, while others happen erratically. Either way, being prepared for what’s coming next can make or break your business.

The timing of this year’s added fees have led to some of the delivery giant’s customers “scrambling to negotiate peak surcharges,” one expert said.

The $2.50 international processing fee, which applies to three services, comes as parcel carriers grapple with the looming end of the de minimis exemption.

From negotiating discounts to using alternative carriers, businesses have several ways to mitigate peak season fees, experts said.

The $2.50 international processing fee, which applies to three services, comes as parcel carriers grapple with the looming end of the de minimis exemption.

Experts say bundled agreements for LTL and parcel delivery services from the carrier are on the outs, potentially incentivizing customers to explore other trucking options.

By rounding up any fraction of an inch for length, width and height, the carrier could introduce further pricing pressure for shippers.

For companies that rely on parcel or freight shipping, rising transportation costs are a painful — and often hidden — drain on margins. Between base rates, fuel surcharges, and complex accessorial fees, it’s easy to miss cost-saving opportunities buried in the fine print of your carrier agreements.

That’s where we come in.

If you're like most businesses, shipping costs quietly eat into your margins more than you'd like. Between UPS, FedEx, and other carriers, it's easy to feel like you're stuck with high rates and complicated contracts.

The good news? You’re not.

At Business Solutions Group, we help companies reduce parcel shipping costs by 15% to 35%—and we do it without wasting your time or charging upfront fees. In fact, we only get paid if we save you money.

Here’s a quick look at how our process works—and why it gets results.

For B2B finance teams, credit card processing can feel like a black box — full of hidden fees, inconsistent reporting, and reconciliation headaches. While payment systems are designed to move money, they can also create serious inefficiencies and unexpected costs if not managed properly.

Below, we break down the 10 most common card processing issues faced by B2B finance departments, their root causes, and how to solve them — so you can streamline operations, gain visibility, and protect your margins.

In today’s rapidly changing business landscape, your supply chain isn't just a cost center—it’s a critical driver of profitability, customer satisfaction, and long-term growth. Whether you ship parcels with UPS or FedEx, manage LTL freight, or oversee global logistics operations, the pressure to reduce spend while increasing visibility and efficiency is at an all-time high.

Unfortunately, many businesses are still leaving money on the table.

At Business Solutions Group, we’ve spent over 20 years helping companies uncover hidden savings, streamline operations, and gain clarity in an increasingly complex logistics world. The goal isn’t just about negotiating better rates—it’s about giving you the tools, insights, and support to build a supply chain that works smarter.

When was the last time you reviewed your telecom contracts? If it's been more than 18 months, there’s a good chance you're leaving money on the table.

Between underused services, outdated pricing, and missed incentives, telecom is one of the most commonly overspent categories in business operations. But here’s the good news: identifying savings doesn’t have to mean switching carriers, starting from scratch, or disrupting your business.

In today’s digital-first world, accepting payments isn’t optional—it’s essential. But how you accept them, and what you pay for that service, can make a significant impact on your bottom line.

For many enterprise and B2B companies, credit card and ACH processing fees quietly eat into margins every month. Often, these costs are buried in complex statements, outdated pricing models, or simply overlooked. That’s where a second opinion can make a big difference.

Following the May 12 rollback of US tariffs on China (from 145% to 30%), there was a short-lived spike in shipping volume from China to the US. This created a brief sense of tight capacity, leading carriers to quickly add ships and capacity to the trans-Pacific routes.

Let’s face it—healthcare costs are out of control.

If you're a business owner or HR leader, chances are you've opened your renewal letter with a sinking feeling in your stomach. Another increase? Really? It’s frustrating, confusing, and—let’s be honest—pretty unfair.

The National Motor Freight Traffic Association (NMFTA) is rolling out major updates to the National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC) system, effective July 19, 2025. These changes are designed to simplify freight classifications, improve accuracy, and promote fairness across the Less-than-Truckload (LTL) shipping industry.

As a shipper, these updates will directly impact how you classify and prepare your freight. Here’s a breakdown of the key changes and how you can prepare:

Shippers are holding their collective breath to see how a rash of uncertainties surrounding the U.S. and global economies will impact freight rates in 2025.

The usual factors — oil prices, seasonal demand, overall strength of consumer markets and labor supply — are all at play. Add to that wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, the simmering trade dispute between the U.S. and China, and the trade policies of the new Trump administration, and the picture gets cloudier still.

Given those conditions, one might find it surprising that current rates for truck, ocean and air freight are as stable as they are. Yet it feels like that state of affairs could change at any moment.

As a business owner or HR professional, you know that managing healthcare costs can feel like an uphill battle. Every year, premiums rise, and healthcare expenses seem to take up a larger chunk of your budget—sometimes without any clear reason why. You're not alone. In fact, 96% of U.S. employers are still paying retail prices for healthcare, unaware that there are smarter, more cost-effective options available. But don’t worry—there is a solution.

In today's competitive global marketplace, shipping costs and logistics efficiency are more important than ever. Whether you're dealing with LTL (Less-than-Truckload) or FTL (Full-Truckload), Air, Ocean, or Rail transportation, finding the right balance between cost, speed, and reliability can be a complex challenge. This is where expert freight advisory and contract negotiation services come into play, offering businesses the tools and strategies needed to optimize their logistics while significantly reducing costs.

In the world of logistics, shipping can often be a complicated and overwhelming task, especially for businesses that need to move freight of varying sizes and weights. Whether you’re shipping across town, across the country, or even across borders, Less Than Truckload (LTL) shipping can be the key to streamlining your operations, reducing costs, and improving efficiency.

At its core, LTL shipping is designed for smaller shipments that don’t fill up a full truckload. This means you can share space with other shipments, resulting in lower costs, faster delivery options, and greater flexibility. Here’s how partnering with a leading LTL provider can make all the difference for your business.

The closures contributed to an 8% improvement in parcels per workforce hour. “While 8% might not seem like a big number, that translated into an efficiency gain of 11 million hours,” UPS EVP and CFO Brian Dykes said on the call.

With the new year well underway, shippers are free from the tyranny of urgent holiday order fulfillment. Now, they can shift their attention to the general rate increases (GRIs) levied by parcel carriers, and focus on mitigating the impact on their shipping costs.

The 2024 GRI announced by UPS and FedEx came with a headline 5.9% figure — a full percentage point lower than last year. In a vacuum, that might sound like a boon for shippers. But the reality is that 5.9% is still the second-highest GRI of all time, and the true impact to shippers is much higher.

Consider the compounding effect of these annual parcel cost increases. Every year, carriers decide that parcel rates will rise 4.9%, 5.9% or 6.9%, and each increase is applied to a higher “principal,” the existing rates that were increased last year, and the year before, and so on. This quickly adds up to a dramatic effect. With the latest 5.9% increase, the cost of shipping common one-pound packages like clothes or a paperback book is over 20% higher compared to just 25 months earlier.

Shippers are left to either absorb the increases and take the associated hit to profits, try to pass them along to inflation-fatigued customers, or find ways to mitigate them. The answer seems obvious, but acting on the drive to mitigate is far from straightforward. GRIs are intentionally complex, with major rule changes, increases targeted at specific shipment profiles, and even more lurking beneath the surface.

In today's competitive business landscape, effective negotiation skills can make all the difference in securing favorable terms with carriers.

However, navigating complex negotiations can be a daunting task, requiring a deep understanding of industry nuances and the ability to strategize effectively. This is where leveraging outside expertise comes into play.

By entrusting negotiation tasks to specialists, you free up valuable resources that can be better allocated to core business operations.

Moreover, outside experts bring objectivity to the table. They are not emotionally invested in the outcome and can provide an unbiased perspective on what constitutes fair terms for both parties involved. This impartiality helps prevent potential oversights or concessions that could negatively impact your bottom line.

Additionally, negotiating with carriers requires careful preparation and meticulous attention to detail. Outsourcing this process ensures that nothing slips through the cracks. Experts in carrier negotiations possess comprehensive knowledge of industry regulations and legal requirements. They will thoroughly review contracts and agreements to ensure compliance while safeguarding your interests.

Furthermore, leveraging outside expertise demonstrates professionalism and sends a clear message to carriers: you mean business. It shows that you value their services but are committed to securing the best possible arrangements for your company's success. In conclusion, when it comes to negotiating with carriers, enlisting outside expertise is not only advantageous but also essential for maximizing outcomes. The specialized knowledge these professionals bring combined with their ability to save time and energy make them invaluable partners in achieving favorable terms that benefit both parties involved
