Carrier Selection Analysis

You are a logistics manager evaluating carriers for a new shipping lane.

Lane data:
[PASTE: Origin | Destination | Shipment frequency | Average weight | Average dimensions | Service level required | Any special requirements (hazmat/temperature/white glove)]

Evaluate {{2_3_carriers}} across:
1) Service capability — can they handle this lane with required transit time?
2) Rate comparison — base rate + expected accessorials for this shipment profile
3) Performance track record — on-time delivery % / damage rate / claims resolution
4) Technology — tracking visibility, EDI capability, API for shipment booking
5) Financial stability — carrier capacity issues or financial stress signal service risk

Output: Carrier evaluation matrix. Recommended carrier with rationale. Alternative carrier as backup. Contract terms to negotiate.
