Contract & Agreement Management
Centralised management of contracts with manufacturers, retail chains and logistics operators – a single source of the system’s financial and operational parameters.
Centralised contract data repository
The contract management module enables the administration and monitoring of all contracts entered into with participants in the deposit scheme – manufacturers, retail chains and logistics operators. Each contract contains financial, operational and quality parameters, which are used in subsequent processes within the system.
Thanks to the centralisation of contract data, all modules of the platform use the same, up-to-date information, which eliminates discrepancies and the need to manage contract records manually.

The process
How does it work?
-
Introduction to the contract
The contract management team enters an agreement with a manufacturer, retail chain or logistics operator, complete with all the relevant parameters (rates, deadlines, areas of operation)
-
Parameter propagation
The system assigns contract parameters to a participant and propagates them to all related modules
-
Calculation of charges
The billing module automatically applies contract rates when calculating charges, deposits and handling fees
-
Version control
Each addendum and amendment is recorded as a new version with an effective date within the relevant settlement period
-
Quality monitoring
The system monitors performance indicators and generates alerts in the event of deviations from the terms of the contract
Benefits
Key benefits
A single data source for the entire system
All contract parameters are stored in one place and used by all modules.
Process automation
The system automatically uses contract data in its processes – without the need to manually assign rates or terms and conditions. This reduces processing time and minimises errors.
Full control over changes and versions
Each contract has a history of changes and versions, which are assigned to the relevant billing periods. This ensures full compliance and auditability.
Better management of partner relationships
Access to contract, quality and billing data in a single view enables more effective management of collaboration.
