Welcome to the Textron Routing Guide

Welcome to the Cushman Inbound Routing Guide for domestic and international suppliers.  Please review this guide. Our aim is to keep improving our collective supply chain efficiencies while minimizing freight costs.

Customer / Supplier:

• Cushman Routing Guides are ONLY for shipments where Cushman is responsible for paying the transportation provider directly.

Supplier(s)/Vendor(s) are NOT to utilize “Prepaid and Add” when using Cushman Textron’s Routing Guides.

• Include Cushman part numbers, Cushman contact name, Return Material Authorization (RMA) or Purchase Order (PO) number(s) on your shipping documents for quick inbound processing.  Shipments missing this information may be returned to origin at customer/supplier expense.  Every supplier or customer must ensure their domestic or global shipping locations use this Routing Guide.

• When Cushman is responsible for paying the transportation provider directly, shipments to a Cushman address must be shipped FREIGHT COLLECT using the preferred Carrier listed on the Routing Guide.
• For Less-than-Truckload (LTL) or Truckload
  • Shipping Collect, DO NOT complete the Bill Charges To / 3rd Party section of the bill of lading (BOL).  Marking the BOL “Freight Collect” is sufficient to ensure carrier invoices are charged to Cushman.

• If a true 3rd Party shipment where the shipper and consignee are not a Cushman entity, you must complete the Bill Charges To / 3rd Party section of the BOL and mark the shipment as 3rd Party.

In the Bill Charges To / 3rd Party section provide the following:
 

• (Insert the Cushman location, Example – Cushman Augusta, GA, etc.)

c/o US Bank
PO Box 3001
Naperville, IL 60566
 

• Without this information, the freight charged to Cushman may be rejected back to you by the carrier for payment due to unknown address as payer.
   

• Any deviation from the specific routing listed here in this matrix for your shipping location(s) must be authorized by Cushman Supply Chain personnel on an emergency, shipment – by – shipment basis. 

Sincerely,

Textron Specialized Vehicles
