A thorough examination of the company's internal systems and freight operations revealed savings totaling $240,000.

Prochem Pipeline Products, a national distributor of stainless steel piping products, partnered with ERA Group to review and reduce its growing freight costs. With branches located across Australia and a reliance on more than 100 freight providers, the company's annual freight spend exceeded $1 million, placing increasing pressure on profit margins.

ERA Group conducted a detailed analysis of Prochem's freight operations, supplier relationships, and internal processes to identify inefficiencies and opportunities for cost reduction. By consolidating suppliers, improving freight management practices, and negotiating more competitive rates, ERA delivered significant savings across the business.

Results

• Achieved approximately 24% annual savings on overall freight costs
• Reduced road express freight expenses by up to 28%
• Identified and eliminated inefficiencies across multiple freight providers
• Improved supplier management and freight procurement strategy
• Delivered substantial bottom-line savings without disrupting operations

This project enabled Prochem to reduce freight expenditure, improve operational efficiency, and protect profitability in an increasingly competitive market.
