Significantly reduce the costs by centralizing and controlling the Return Authorization (RA) process.
RA Authorization
Whether done automatically or manually by phone, fax, EDI or web, CPS manages return authorizations from thousands of centralized and de-centralized consumer and retailer return centers across North America.
RA Administration
CPS uses an advanced proprietary software alongside a highly skilled customer service team to receive all RA requests. We manage all transportation coordination and scheduling through our in-house Logistics Department.
Our Freight Management Program ensures the best rates from the most dependable carriers with centralizes billing, auditing and claims services by leveraging shipments.
Return Routing

- Issue and Tracks RAs by retailer, location, brand, SKU, carrier, reason codes, etc.
- Open and close RAs
