Case Study: Leading Pharmaceutical Company achieves 100% freight-negotiation automation and 85% faster RFQ resolution with GoComet

A leading pharmaceutical company achieved 100% automation in their freight negotiation process and increased their shipment distribution

Leading Pharmaceutical Company, with over 15 manufacturing sites and API sales in 65 countries, faced slow, manual freight processes—email/Excel-based rate procurement, offline spot negotiations limited to about five vendors, and manual shipment tracking. They engaged GoComet for a cloud-based solution to automate end-to-end freight and supply chain activities.

GoComet deployed its platform—using reverse auctions for spot RFQs, contract management, audit-ready award comparisons, and an Invoice Verification module—giving full visibility into actual rates and automating reconciliation. The GoComet implementation delivered 100% automation of freight negotiations, an 85% reduction in RFQ resolution time, about 4 hours saved on report generation, and improved shipment distribution and operational efficiency.
