THE CALCULATOR
What is speed worth to your desk?
Two numbers decide a quote desk’s revenue: how many RFQs get answered, and how fast. Set the sliders to your desk. The paper on the right shows the money.
Conservative model. Anchors: at Infinity Logistics, win rate rose 35% → 73% as response time fell from 60+ min to about 15 min; industry studies show most RFQs to large forwarders never get quoted at all. Adjust the sliders to your desk — the math updates live.

Mystery-shopper studies found most RFQs to large forwarders never get quoted at all. Every unanswered request is a shipment your competitor didn't have to fight for.
Why speed moves win rate
At Infinity Logistics, win rate rose from 35% to 73% as quote response fell from more than 60 minutes to about 15. Buyers shortlist whoever answers while the need is hot.
Why the model is conservative
We cap the modelled win rate at 80%, use your own profit-per-shipment figure, and apply band multipliers well below the observed uplift. Reality has beaten this model.
