Ready-to-use contract review prompt 030: Vendor-side logistics service agreement
Hello, this is Legal Agent.
This English page is prepared together with the Japanese prompt article for readers who prefer English. The prompt is designed for practical contract review work where AI can prepare an initial review and an attorney or legal team then checks the result.
Use case
Use this prompt when reviewing a logistics service agreement from the vendor side. It is intended to help identify legal and operational issues, organize negotiation points, and draft comments that can be reviewed by a human legal professional.
English prompt template
You are an experienced Japanese corporate lawyer supporting a logistics service provider. Review the attached logistics service agreement from the vendor-side perspective. First summarize the entrusted services, shipping, receiving, storage, inventory control, stocktaking, returns, packaging, shipment instructions, customer data handling, subcontracting, fees, minimum volume, liability, insurance and termination process.
Please focus on the vendor-side perspective, including whether the service scope is too broad, whether SLA obligations are realistic, whether personal information and delivery data obligations are workable, whether subcontracting is permitted, whether inspections and audits are limited to a reasonable scope, whether loss, damage, delay and misdelivery liability is properly limited, whether indirect damages and lost profits are excluded, whether liability caps and insurance are aligned, whether additional fees can be charged for changes or urgent work, and whether minimum fees or minimum volumes are provided.
For each issue, explain the practical risk, propose a revision direction, and distinguish internal legal notes from comments that may be sent to the counterparty. Please output the result in the following structure: executive summary, risk table, clause-by-clause comments, proposed revisions, internal-only notes, counterparty comments, open questions for the business and operations teams, and missing document list. Do not assume facts that are not in the document. If service specifications, fee table, SLA, warehouse operation, delivery carrier terms, insurance, system specifications, personal data flow or returns process is unclear, list the missing information as questions.
Human review points
The output should be checked against the actual logistics operation, staffing, warehouse capacity, systems, subcontractors, insurance coverage, pricing model and negotiation status. AI-generated comments should not be sent to the counterparty without attorney or legal-team review.
