## About this task

This Series B vertical software provider for hospitals and clinics (201–500 employees) is looking for a manager Supply Chain Analyst for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Compares carriers, lanes and modes.

The company has a deadline, no one free to own it, and wants a person who has done the same job before. The company sells subscription software, so deadlines follow release and billing cycles.

The company prefers a person who can come to Kennewick for kickoff and the final review; the rest is remote. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call.

## What you deliver

- Analyse freight cost per lane and recommend carrier changes.

- A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope

- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

- One round of edits after the company's review is included

## How the work runs

- Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared

- Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback

- Last day: final version and handover note

**Duration:** about 10 working days. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.

## Tools

Excel

## Who fits

- 7-12 years of hands-on work as a Supply Chain Analyst, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Excel

- Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate

- A habit of asking one clarifying question early rather than five late

- Has worked with a distributed team across time zones

## Not included

- Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately

- Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so

- Managing other contractors or employees

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
