INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORTATION CONSULTANTS (ITC)
ITC provides Audit and Consultation on ocean transportation. ITC is engaged in monitoring clients'' ocean shipping expenses so as to make sure shipments have been properly classified, appropriate rate assessed and that there is no discrepancy on the freight rate c
harged. In order to protect the interest of the clients (Government Agencies), ITC will thoroughly review each document and make sure there is no overcharge.
If a discrepancy is found on any of the freight charges, ITC will file overcharge claim on behalf of the client (Federal Government) against the steamship company. Most claims are normally settled through
our claim filing procedure. However, in case of dispute, ITC will represent its clients before the Steamship Company, Steam Conference and the Federal Maritime Commission, if necessary.
Since ITC provides post audit services on a contingency basis, i.e., ONLY WHEN WE ARE ABLE TO RECOVER THE LOST REVENUE, DO WE SHARE A PERCENTAGE OF THE ACTUAL PROCEEDS. IF WE FIND NO DISCREPANCY ON THE FREIGHT CHARGES, OUR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES COST NOTHING TO THE
CLIENT.
Pre-Audit is provided on a per document fee basis. ITC is entitled to no additional fee. All proceeds from the overcharges go to the Government. Audit will be completed within a week.
ITC is headed by a professional with over two decades of experience, EXCLUSIVEY PROVIDING AUDIT AND CONSULTATION TO MAJOR MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS AS WELL AS FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
Head of ITC, who is personally involved in the audit and consultation process, has:
1. Master's Degree in Transportation Management
2. Is Licensed to practice before the Federal Maritime Commission
3. Our other staff is very well qualified with years of experience.
SUMMARY: AT NO COST TO THE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, ITC will review and audit freight documents and file claim. Only when a claim is actually paid, ITC will be entitled to its Commission. If no discrepancy is found on any of the freight charges (which is rare), our
audit will assure you that your shipments have been rated correctly and cargo classified properly - without any cost and without the cost of maintaining extensive tariff library and professional rate personnel. The client's involvement is only to the extent of pr
oviding us with copies of the documents (rated bill of lading).
Pre-audit is provided on a per document fee basis.

1. COMMISSION FOR POST AUDIT IS 21.75% OF THE ACTUAL REFUND FROM THE CARRIER.
