- Model margin impact of proposed contract terms and flag deals falling outside target profitability thresholds
- Monitor contract compliance — ensuring invoiced rates match agreed contract terms — and resolve pricing discrepancies
- Track lane-level and account-level profitability over the life of a contract, recommending renegotiation when margins erode
- Maintain pricing databases/tools (TMS, Excel models, or pricing software) with up-to-date rate cards
