Cost Control & Invoice Auditing

Trip costs move after the aircraft has left. Ramp fees get re-rated, extra ground time appears, fuel is billed at a different differential than the release stated, and a permit fee arrives with a service charge that nobody agreed. On a busy month those small differences add up to real money that most operators never see, because the invoices land weeks apart and nobody reconciles them against the original quote.

LFS audits on your behalf. When we open a trip file we record what was quoted for every service — into-plane rate and differential, handling tariff, permit government fee, crew transport, catering. When the invoice arrives we compare it line by line against that record and against the actual on-blocks and off-blocks times. Anything that does not reconcile is queried with the supplier before it reaches you.

You receive one consolidated statement per trip with a clear breakdown: fuel, handling, permits, navigation, crew and third-party costs, in your reporting currency, with disputed items flagged and their status shown. Monthly and quarterly rollups are available by aircraft, by route or by cost centre for owners, flight departments and charter operators who need to show where the budget went.
