All features
Know what the whole proposal is worth.
Compare the carrier proposal with the agreement in force on the same representative shipment profile. ParcelAdvisor rerates supported pricing changes, reconciles the commercial terms they affect, and returns the net economics, qualification risk, assumptions, and negotiation priorities.
Activity11 steps
Rate the same shipments under both agreements.
ParcelAdvisor uses one representative shipment profile for the Base-versus-Proposal comparison, so changes in package mix do not hide changes in the commercial terms.
- Compare two processed contract scenarios on one shipment basis.
- Inspect annualized volume, cost, and difference by service and package.
- See rated, unrated, and failed result status in the underlying analysis.

Leave with a decision that holds together.
The output keeps the economics beside the evidence and assumptions used to produce them, making it easier to explain what is valuable, what is risky, and what still needs to be negotiated.
- Separate package-rate improvement from commercial terms that reduce or qualify the value.
- Keep tier and commitment qualification visible in the verdict.
- Open the detailed comparison when a stakeholder needs the underlying proof.
Proposal decision briefEvidence, assumptions, and economic result
Ready to review
The proposal lowers calculated annual cost on the representative profile, but the removed rebate and tier qualification need to be resolved.
Qualification risk changes the negotiating position.
The package-rate improvement should be evaluated with the rebate loss and current tier basis, not as a standalone discount.
