ShipperGuide offers a benchmarking feature to compare carriers’ proposals with the live market, short-term contracts, and target rates to help determine the fairest pricing for your transportation needs in a competitive market.
To view benchmark rates:
1. On your left dashboard, click RFP Guide.
2. On your bid status dashboard, navigate to bids and click on the RFP.
3. Click a lane to expand the Routing Guide panel.

The Live Market Rate and Short-Term Contract rates match the fuel type on the RFP for benchmark rates to accurately compare with carriers’ proposals.
