Why Distribution Needs Price Discovery

Warehouse operations include every activity that moves goods through a facility, from receiving and storing to picking, packing, and shipping.

Price Discovery for Margin Recovery in Distribution

Distribution costs now rival COGS, with 30–40% of transactions not priced accurately. Industry research finds 1.5–3 EBITDA points hiding in plain sight, buried under blended averages that mask the real cost by customer, order profile, fulfillment path, and service tier. Cost to Serve gives you the numbers to price the work correctly for strong margins.

Targeted Cost to Serve: Why Warehouse Cost Management Starts with the Right Question

Warehouse costs are often judged against budgets that never reflected the work being performed. Learn why traditional cost metrics fall short and how Targeted Cost to Serve gives operations and finance a workload-adjusted way to measure true performance.

Targeted Cost to Serve

Targeted Cost to Serve (TCTS) gives warehouse operations and finance leaders a workload-adjusted metric for measuring true cost performance. Instead of relying on static budgets, TCTS adjusts targets based on actual workflow complexity, order mix, and operational demand. This helps organizations identify cost drivers, compare facilities fairly, and align operations and finance around one shared metric.
