Network Health

WHAT IS IT?

Network Health is the primary landing page for SCI: Custom Insights and provides an executive-level summary of transportation network performance.

It brings together transportation spend, pricing alignment, tender activity, compliance, network risk, market conditions, and volume trends into a single view so users can quickly understand where the network is performing well and where additional attention may be needed.

Users can review the current fiscal year or compare performance with the previous fiscal year.

WHAT DOES IT TELL ME?

Network Health provides a high-level view of several important areas.

  • Transportation Spend
    • Total transportation spend for the selected timeframe
    • Mix of Spot and Contract transportation spend
  • Market vs. Actual
    • Compares actual transportation spend with SONAR market benchmarks
    • Helps identify whether the shipper is spending above or below the broader market
  • Opportunities
    • Identifies lanes where the shipper’s rate is more than 10% above the SONAR Contract market rate
    • Helps surface areas where pricing may warrant additional evaluation
  • At Risk
    • Identifies lanes where the shipper’s rate is more than 10% below the SONAR Contract market rate
    • Highlights lanes where low pricing may create greater capacity or service exposure
  • Network Risk
    • Provides a volume-weighted view of service disruption risk using rate variance and tender acceptance
  • Compliance
    • Measures volume-weighted tender acceptance to show how closely actual carrier acceptance aligns with the freight being tendered
  • Volume
    • Shows total volume tendered along with overall surge or shortfall
  • Pricing Alignment
    • Maps markets where transportation costs are above or below market benchmarks
  • Budget & Volume Trends
    • Shows how transportation spend and volume are changing over time
  • AI Insights
    • Provides additional context around volume demand, rates, capacity, and network-specific changes

Together, these metrics help answer: Where should I be paying attention first?
