Carrier Contract Monitoring

No surprises. Never lose a discount again.

Automatically track every carrier contract from signature through renewal. Reveel continuously monitors discount schedules, surcharge commitments, expiration dates, tier thresholds, waiver conditions, and rebate trigger points and alerts you when changes have been made so you’re always one step ahead.

Two ways you’re losing discounts right now.

Carrier contracts are mind-numbingly complex, with page after page of terms that make them nearly impossible to manage by hand. There are two main areas where you’re losing discounts, and it’s costing your business a lot of money:

1. Dropping out of a revenue tier.

Carrier Contracts tier your discount by how much you ship. Ship a little more and you can climb into a better tier; ship a little less and you can fall out of one, losing a meaningful chunk of discount. Carriers don’t warn you when it happens, you find out on the next invoice.

2. Discounts that expire.

Not every term lasts the full length of the carrier contract. Some discounts expire mid-term, and again, no alert — just a higher invoice. Reveel flags expirations up to 90 days ahead, with the dollar impact of letting them lapse, so you can act before the discount is gone.

Track every term from signature through renewal.

Carrier Contracts drift after signature, and no one notices until the terms are already being missed. Reveel tracks every term the whole way through, so discount schedules, surcharge commitments, and tier thresholds stay visible from the day you sign to the day you renew.

With Carrier Contract Monitoring, you can:

  • Track every term continuously, not just at signature
  • Catch discrepancies before they become a billing dispute
  • Feed the same contract lifecycle data into audit and recovery

FAQs About Carrier Contract Management

Carrier contract management is the process of monitoring, analyzing, and optimizing the terms of a parcel or freight carrier contract. Without active monitoring, shippers routinely lose discounts and often only discover the change when the next invoice arrives.

Reveel’s platform uncovers key data points in uploaded carrier contracts and continuously monitors for discount expirations, revenue tier shifts, and GRI impacts. When a change is detected, the platform surfaces the affected service, current discount terms, and the projected dollar impact, giving shippers the information needed to act before the next invoice.

Most shippers find out that discounts have expired or changed on their next invoice. Carriers are not obligated to notify shippers when a discount expires or a revenue tier changes. By the time the invoice reflects the update, the savings window has already closed.

Revenue tiers are spending thresholds in carrier contracts that determine discount levels. Ship above a threshold, and the discount increases; drop below it, and the discount decreases. Reveel monitors tier status continuously and alerts shippers when they’re approaching a boundary, so volume decisions can be made before discounts are lost.

The carrier-announced GRI percentage is an average across all services. It doesn’t reflect a shipper’s actual cost increase based on the services, zones, and surcharges they use most. Reveel’s GRI Impact Analysis applies new carrier rates and rules directly to a shipper’s historical shipping profile, showing the real increase by service type.

Reveel provides 180-day advance notice of discount expirations, along with details on the dollar impact of not taking action. That lead time gives shippers a meaningful window to contact their carrier representative and renegotiate terms before the discount disappears.

Yes. Reveel’s contract optimization tools bring transparency into where a shipper spends the most, making it easier to focus carrier conversations on the terms that have the biggest impact.
