Tia Broker Carrier Agreement

TIA`s Contracts Committee began work on the updated model contract earlier this year to confirm that the most relevant and recent contractual terms were included in the model agreement. Additions were made that focused on the current legal and insurance landscapes that have a direct impact on the third-party logistics industry and TIA members. * Broker must pay: Provides that the carrier receives payments from the broker, whether or not the broker receives payment from his client. * Recourse to the shipper: Provides the carrier with recourse to the shipper for payment in case the broker does not pay the carrier. “TIA is honored to continue to provide these invaluable resources to our members as a benefit to members. I commend the Contracts Committee and the leadership of President James Lee for their tireless efforts to keep these model agreements relevant and relevant to our members,” said Chris Burroughs, TIA Vice President of Government Affairs. * Recognition: Provides carriers with a recognized document to work with brokers.

The model also provides for payment directly to the executing carrier in the event that the broker determines that the charge has been corrected without authorization and prior to payment. “Our sole objective for the TIA Model Broker-Carrier contract was to create a fair and balanced model contract that raises the standard and meets the best interests of brokers and carriers,” said Robert Voltmann, President and CEO of TIA. “Both carriers and brokers can safely sign the TIA Model Broker-Carrier contract without fear of hidden provisions.” The contract offers these benefits to both carriers and brokers: The Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA), a professional association of logistics service providers (3PL), has developed a model broker-carrier contract to promote best practices between brokers and carriers. The standard contract is available on TIA`s website: www.tianet.org. “As president of an airline, a standardized contract will allow me to improve efficiency and save a lot of time,” said Rick Staller, president of Bee Trucking Inc. and president of the TIA Motor Carrier Conference. “This contract covers two of the big problems for carriers: it requires brokers to pay even if they don`t pick up from the shipper, and it allows recourse if the broker doesn`t pay within an agreed time.” As one of the most valuable resources available exclusively to TIA members, our model and framework contracts have been developed by your colleagues to help you run your business.
