Traditional business intelligence tools report on what happened but fall short when it comes to modeling what will happen. Without the ability to re-rate shipments at the package level across carrier scenarios, network changes, and surcharge structures, shippers are left making reactive decisions. This session explored how modern modeling and simulation tools enable a shift from reporting to decision intelligence. Attendees learned how to test carrier proposals, model volume shifts, quantify GRI and surcharge impacts, and detect rating errors, leaving with a clear framework to build the data foundation for an AI-driven parcel strategy.

Join this on-demand Parcel Forum 2026 session noted as the “best presentation of the day” to learn more about:

• Why traditional BI tools fall short for parcel modeling and scenario simulation
• How to model carrier proposals, volume shifts, GRIs, and surcharge impacts at the package level
• Insights into how AI-powered simulation enables proactive parcel strategy instead of reactive reporting
