Orca Intelligence
Based on User Experience, Orca is the GOLD Standard for Freight Audit!

Founded in 2016 by Marco Grossi and Matt Grossi, Orca Intelligence is an organization that goes the extra mile for those they serve. As a results oriented team that prioritizes excellence in all they do, Orca creates efficiencies and maximizes bottom line profits through its cutting-edge integrated supply chain technology. Going beyond traditional freight audit services, Orca solves the logistical and operational challenges organizations face by equipping their supply chain personnel with critical and reliable data.

Prior to implementation, the company engages with customers to take a deep dive into their specific needs and challenges, as well as the complexities that make up their shipping processes. Every client is unique, but even more so is their supply chain. Orca therefore aims to become an extension of each clients’ logistics department, providing aid where they need it most.

“By putting the customer's supply chain needs first, Orca remains at the top of the freight audit industry. It always has been, and always will be, about what else we can do to offer our clients increased value everyday,” says Marco Grossi, Co-Founder of Orca.

The freight audit industry has long been resistant to change and technological innovation. Orca challenges this status quo by putting data at the center of everything they do. “Through our freight audit solution, we not only audit and automate the freight payables process but also equip each client with clean real-time data that they use for interactive business reporting and making better decisions faster,” comments Grossi. Orca connects to all carriers across North America via API and EDI with the goal to centralize, standardize, and organize customers’ data sets to offer a multi-enterprise collaborative ecosystem for supply chain reporting.

By automating and connecting via API’s to all the customer’s vendors and carriers, their system pulls in critical information at granular levels to handle supply chain operations more efficiently. This can include all the product SKU data in transit, their updated ETA, delivery dates and basically any other KPI that a customer can dream up.

We understand that every client is unique and so is their supply chain. To this end, customizing our system and processes around each supply chain is at the core Of Everything We do

Once the data from the carriers is cleaned, standardized, and consolidated in one place, Orca’s freight audit and analytics solution audits the data and automatically analyzes the supply chain and transportation network to find opportunities for cost savings. If a customer is moving products from East Coast to West Coast at $10,000 per shipment, whereas another customer is spending $7500 for the same laneway, then Orca’s system can help the former customer integrate new vendors and save 25 percent of costs on that laneway. Apart from auditing to 100 percent accuracy, the company helps clients with scenario modelling and transport network optimization putting tens of millions back in client pockets each year.

A key selling feature is the customized reports and dashboards that are created using clean data to help every individual within the client’s logistics or supply chain team track KPIs based on their daily business goals. Orca’s system assesses clients’ supply chain, identifies risks in it, offers insights to help expedite delivery, bridges the gaps on a delayed shipment, and suggests options for savings.

When innovating for the future, Orca partners with its client base to understand their technological wish lists. This helps the team further customize and create tailored solutions that not only meet client needs where they are presently, but also where they want to go in the future.

"Our clients wanted higher levels of process automation to complete the pay cycle. So we recently partnered with a large bank to develop a solution to offer clients anew ‘virtual pay’ program to complete the freight payment cycle. The best part about the new program is it creates higher ROI for our clients," says Grossi. “Our goal is to provide every customer with at least 100 percent ROI, and by continuing to push the envelope by staying innovative, we haven’t missed that target to date. In the past year, we have evolved beyond just a freight audit company to become a supply chain fintech company,” notes Grossi.

Orca has a proven track record and has demonstrated their commitment to innovation. Backed by highly experienced professionals from the transportation industry, the company is at the helm of supply chain optimization. This duo from a small town in Canada have created a product that is heading towards another strong year in 2022, leading their peers in the market and carving out the path ahead in supply chain optimization technologies.
