Correct Answer

Explanation

Option A is correct because Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management allows organizations to maintain freight carrier contract rates and search for the lowest costs, which optimizes transportation costs. Option B is incorrect as it is not efficient to manually negotiate rates before every shipment. Option C is incorrect because a flat-rate shipping model does not ensure the lowest costs across different routes and carriers. Option D is incorrect because outsourcing does not align with the goal of using Dynamics 365 to maintain and manage costs.
