The Savings Report, audit 001

Every figure starts from one of the three bills above. Where we used a published benchmark instead of a quote, the card says so.

Seats nobody logs into

high confidence

Vendor: Brightline Software Suite

$180 to $420/mo

Estimated range, not a quote.

What we saw: You pay $640 a month for 40 seats. Your headcount on the cleaning crews is 64, but only 18 people ever touch this tool, the office and supervisor group.

The fix: Drop to 20 seats at the next billing date and ask for the old per-seat rate to hold.

The arithmetic: $640/mo for 40 seats = $16 a seat. 40 seats minus 20 used = 20 idle. 20 x $16 = $320/mo, call it $300 after the rate moves.

Renewal: Renews May 12, 2026. Seat counts can be cut at any billing date.

Where this comes from: Your own invoice and the seat count you gave us. No outside source needed.

Confirm it with: Your Brightline admin page, the active users list for the last 30 days.

What we might be wrong about: If seasonal staff log in during summer contracts, the idle count is smaller than 20 and the saving drops with it.

Fleet lease priced above the renewal market

medium confidence

Vendor: Haulmark Fleet Leasing

$300 to $700/mo

Estimated range, not a quote.

What we saw: Eleven vans at $2,150 a month, signed three years ago. Van lease rates for this class have softened since, and you are 60 days from renewal with no notice given.

The fix: Ask for a renewal quote and a competing quote in the same week. Use the renewal date as the deadline, not a threat.

The arithmetic: $2,150/mo across 11 vans = $195 a van. A 14 to 32 percent renewal move on that line is $300 to $700/mo. Midpoint $500.

Renewal: Renews June 1, 2026. Written notice is due 30 days before.

Where this comes from: Benchmark range from published commercial van lease pricing, not a quote for your fleet. UNVERIFIED until Haulmark puts a number in writing.

Confirm it with: One competing quote for the same van class and term, dated this month.

What we might be wrong about: If your lease bundles maintenance and the comparison does not, the gap is smaller than it looks.

Card processing rate above the small business band

low confidence

Vendor: Northgate Payments

$120 to $340/mo

Estimated range, not a quote.

What we saw: You pay $1,180 a month in card fees on roughly $42,000 of monthly card volume, which is around 2.8 percent. Published small business bands for recurring B2B invoices sit lower than that.

The fix: Ask Northgate for the interchange-plus breakdown, then ask them to match the band before you shop it.

The arithmetic: $1,180 on $42,000 volume = 2.81 percent. Moving to 2.3 to 2.6 percent saves $120 to $340/mo. Midpoint $210.

Renewal: Month to month, no notice period, so this one can move immediately.

Where this comes from: Benchmark from published processor rate cards. UNVERIFIED for your account, and no public info exists on the private rate Northgate gave you.

Confirm it with: Your last statement, the effective rate line at the bottom.

What we might be wrong about: If a lot of your volume is corporate cards or keyed-in payments, 2.8 percent may already be a fair rate and this finding is worth less than stated.

What we might be wrong about

  • Two of the three findings lean on published benchmarks, not on quotes for your account. Treat those ranges as a starting point.
  • We have not seen your Haulmark contract, only the monthly figure you gave us. A bundled maintenance clause would change the picture.
  • Your card volume came from you, not from a statement we read. If it is off, the Northgate number moves with it.

Vendor: Brightline Software Suite

Renewal: Renews May 12, 2026. Seat counts can be cut at any billing date.

Hi Brightline Software Suite team,

We currently pay $640 a month for 40 Brightline seats and only 18 are in active use. We want to move to 20 seats at the same per-seat rate from the next billing date. If that rate cannot hold, tell me the number you can do and we will decide from there.

If there is nothing to move, tell me straight and we will plan accordingly.

Thanks,
Copperline Services LLC

Hi Haulmark Fleet Leasing team,

Our eleven van lease with Haulmark renews June 1 and we are pricing the renewal now. We pay $2,150 a month today. We would rather stay, but we need this line to move. What is the best monthly figure you can put in writing this week?

Hi Northgate Payments team,

If there is nothing to move, tell me straight and we will plan accordingly.

Thanks,
