End-to-End India EXW Sourcing & Inland Logistics
Source, structure, and optimize comprehensive pricing for India inland origin services, covering factory gate pick-ups, domestic long-haul trucking (FTL/LTL), and multi-modal rail movements to gateway ports.
Procure competitive tariffs from domestic transport vendors, specialized cartage operators, and container train operators (CTOs) for major Inland Container Depots (ICDs) such as Dadri, Ludhiana, and Ahmedabad.
Account for all local statutory and operational cost variables into commercial quotes, including state-border toll/tax variations, fuel surcharges, empty container repositioning costs, and local surveyor fees.
Organize and review standard operating steps with partner Customs Brokers (CHAs) to map accurate origin documentation fees, factory stuffing permissions, and port-gate terminal handling charges (THC).
Carrier Procurement & Relationship Management
Negotiate spot, promotional, and long-term contract rates with the carrier partners.
Secure space allocation, container inventory,



and equipment commitments—particularly during peak seasons or blank sailing disruptions.
Leverage existing relationships with liner commercial teams to secure ad-hoc "bullet rates/NAcs" for high-volume opportunities.
Compliance, Filings, and Regulatory Management
Execute timely and accurate Named Account Contract (NAC) filings and special rate filings with ocean carriers prior to cargo receipt at origin.
Audit all carrier contracts to ensure perfect alignment between filed rates and final invoicing, systematically eliminating billing discrepancies.

Design and price optimal end-to-end transport routings (US East Coast, West Coast, Gulf Coast, and Inland IPI points).
Assess cost-advantage ratios of distinct route mechanics: All-Water (AW) vs. Intermodal / Mini-Landbridge (MLB) vs. Cross-Docking/Transloading at US gateways.
