- Shape global rate cards and multi‑country pricing (tiers, volume incentives, escalation) aligned to GPCM guidance
- Run scenario and sensitivity analyses; prepare negotiation options and client‑facing pricing exhibits
- Coordinate deal reviews and approvals; lock pricing plan status in Mercury prior to close
- Ensure SOW alignment and quality reviews; maintain audit trail of assumptions and approvals
