Learn how SupplyPike’s software and team helped uncover hidden problems, automate disputing, and navigate complex settlement offers.
You can’t fix problems you don’t know about, and this supplier’s story is a case in point. From hidden carrier and setup issues to resource constraints and unclear settlement offers, their team needed help both getting paid and getting better.
When we first partnered with this supplier, four major challenges were draining their human and financial resources:
Bad Carrier Docs. The supplier’s carrier had submitted more than 300 blank PODs without the supplier’s knowledge, which likely led to many disputes being denied.
Hidden Item Setup Issues. A product setup error was creating mismatched inventory counts, contributing to avoidable deductions.
Untapped Small Dispute Dollars. With limited internal resources, the supplier had to ignore all small deductions, costing them an estimated ~$700K a year in that threshold alone.
Confusing Settlement Offers. Walmart issued multiple complex, hybrid settlement offers that were difficult to evaluate and navigate.
Here’s how our partnership helped solve the challenges above:
Caught Carrier Issue. SupplyPike’s software identified the blank POD pattern. Our team also provided a full list of the affected POs so the supplier could hold their carrier accountable.
Resolved Item Setup Issues. We uncovered and diagnosed the root cause behind the inventory discrepancy and helped their team execute a quick correction.
Automated Small-Dollar Disputing. Our software enabled the supplier to start auto disputing all deductions, including the small ones they had formerly ignored.
Supported Settlement Negotiations. Backed by SupplyPike data, the supplier was able to negotiate a ~$2 million settlement while continuing to get approvals on disputes—maximizing total recovery and speeding up time to cash.
SupplyPike is no one-trick pony. Whether you need to identify hidden deduction triggers, navigate complex settlements, automate disputes of all sizes, or all of the above—leveraging our platform and expertise can help you build a stronger, smarter supply chain.
Your success story awaits!
