accurate, prompt payment. “Eliminating unnecessary collection expenses adds value for both parties,” Burglechner says. As part of its ongoing investment in technology, U.S. Bank is exploring the use of AI to analyze proof-of-delivery images. This solution would determine if an associated image does in fact contain the information necessary to accurately validate information provided on the invoice. Keeping Client Data Secure Another way in which U.S. Bank sets itself apart is its ability to ensure data integrity and security.

Collaborative online tools allow shippers to quickly process, pay, and resolve exceptions, enabling them to become shippers of choice. As an active board member of the National Motor Freight Traf c Association’s Digital Standards Development Council (DSDC), U.S. Bank is helping to drive industry API standardization. Because U.S. Bank’s solutions support positive business rule changes and a collaborative invoice approval process, they ensure shippers pay only what they owe, while carriers receive
