Many organisations lack access to data and information that may be in various ledger systems, purchasing cards, travel and expense reports, or even maintained by outsourced suppliers. Key spend data or supplier links might be incomplete, ill-defined, or simply missing, and when the information isn’t accessible or complete, there’s no way to leverage it for improved decision making. Advanced Business Solutions can help your organisations business users, managers, directors and procurement departments gain insight into savings opportunities and compliance by enabling access to aggregated and enriched spend data utilising their Spend Analytics solution.
Spend Analytics is accessed through a secure, fully interactive, browser based web-interface. It provides visibility and clarity of an organisations procurement performance and detailed insight into actual business activity. Through the benefit of pre-defined metrics and measures, information is summarised into a Procurement Scorecard. This creates, manages and delivers your organisation’s Key Performance Indicators.
Spend Analytics enables procurement professionals to identify direct cost savings through the key procurement data but also importantly, to identify process improvements through the deployment of more effective procurement strategies. For example optimisation of invoice processing and reduction in the quantity of low value invoices. Spend Analytics provides “out of the box” metrics and measurements for everything from contract v non contract spend, percentage of invoices matched first time, category spend analysis, identification of differential prices for the same product or service and purchase cycle times.
