Cost Recovery
Know what a unit really costs, see which costs are not being recovered, and decide the pass-through, surcharge or reset that recovers them.
Metrics to watch
All metrics →- Margin Leakage & Cost Recovery
Cost of raw materials
Input cost by material and month against the index the formula prices on.
Act whenUp over x% in one month, or a steady rise over a quarter
- Margin Leakage & Cost Recovery
Freight recovery rate
Freight billed against freight paid, by lane and account.
Act whenUnder 100% on any lane for two months
- Margin Leakage & Cost Recovery
Freight, packaging and indirect costs
Freight, packaging and other indirect costs as a share of invoice, so the true landed cost is what margin is measured against.
Act whenUp over x% of invoice
- Margin Leakage & Cost Recovery
Surcharge capture rate
Surcharges applied against surcharges due, and the waivers by account and approver.
Act whenUnder 90%, or waivers rising
- Margin Leakage & Cost Recovery
Fixed cost as a share of price
Fixed cost per unit against pocket price, by plant and family.
Act whenA sudden jump over x%, or a steady rise over three months
- Market & External Signals
Tariff and trade changes
New tariffs, sanctions and regime changes in a source or sales market.
Act whenAny new measure in a market you source from or sell into
- Market & External Signals
Supply chain disruption
Delays and cost spikes in inbound logistics, by lane and supplier.
Act whenDelays or cost spikes in inbound logistics
Templates to start with
All templates →- Commercial Data & Context
Landed cost model
Standard cost plus inbound freight, duty and handling, effective-dated, so margin is measured against what the unit actually cost.
- Planning & Scenarios
Cost pass-through scenario
A cost shock, the price response by segment and its timing, and the margin path in between.
- Analysis & Diagnostics
Freight recovery scorecard
Freight billed against freight paid by lane and account, and the delivered prices set before carrier rates moved.
- Optimization
Freight recovery optimization
Lane surcharges and delivered-price resets that recover absorbed freight where it is recoverable and leave alone where it is not.
- Pricing Methods
Surcharge pricing
Energy, fuel, tariff and material surcharges as governed line items, with applicability rules and a waiver route on record.
- Pricing Methods
Index-linked and formula pricing
Base price plus an index at a stated lag and factor, with the surcharge that applies when the index outruns the formula.
- Predictive Models
Cost index forecast
Where the inputs a formula prices on are heading, so the surcharge and the formula move before the margin does.
- Commercial Data & Context
Freight lane cost table
Carrier rates by lane, mode and weight break, dated, joined to delivered-price orders so absorbed freight is visible per lane.
- Commercial Data & Context
Index and formula price inputs
Commodity and energy indices, currency and surcharge tables, with the lag each formula uses, as governed inputs to formula pricing.
- Predictive Models
Freight rate forecast by lane
Carrier rate direction by lane and mode, so delivered prices are set against next quarter’s cost, not last year’s.
