tldr; for the phone info, but i glanced somethiong in the sorts that you can sync gmail contacts.
If the objective is to have a shared contact list on all phones, how about setting up a common gmail account of for the contacts. The information can be modified from a pc if a contact is created/modified/deleted, and all devices will automatically have the info synced. Said contacts can also be saved on the sim as well if necessary, but that may defeat the purpose if I understand your need correctly.
There are obviously a few caveats security-wise if one of the phones gets lost, but its a start maybe?
I guess the first step is finding out how to move a contact from the sim/internal memory to the gmail account.
gmail is free right?
Unless I don't understand your need.

Tool to transfer data/contacts from phone to phone

I have about 320 phones I manage at our office and I'm looking for a tool to copy contacts easily. Bluetooth doesn't work.
The only way is to take it to Verizon and have them copy them. It's a PITA
I was looking at a CellBrite. any other solutions that don't require license fees and huge pricetag?
At the time we are using the Motorola Barrage flip phones.

The phones are just dumb flip phones... technician phones that don't need the bells and whistles. These phone don't have a sim card in them that I know of. Maybe if I use a micro SD .

Motorola used to offer the motorola phone tools, which would let you sync a phone with outlook.
Those phones all have mini usb, right?

Any luck setting up gmail contacts on the phone? Do the contacts settings even let you choose where to get the contacts from?
