Procurement teams are constantly being challenges to support the management and reduction of costs while driving value for money and compliance. One tool that can significantly enhance this process is spend analysis. Here’s why it should be at the top of your priority list going into budget setting season:
Spend analysis helps you identify where your money is going and where potential savings and opportunities might lie. By examining historical spending patterns, you can pinpoint off contract spend, inefficiencies and discover opportunities for cost reduction.
With a clear view of your expenditure, you can engage more effectively with suppliers. Understanding your spend data allows you to better understand how costs are made up, negotiate better terms, consolidate spend down to fewer, more strategic suppliers, and ultimately, strengthen your supplier relationships.
A comprehensive spend analysis provides actionable insights that inform strategic decisions. It allows you to align procurement and/or category strategies with the wider organisational strategy and objectives, ensuring that every £ spent supports your broader business objectives.
Accurate spend data is crucial for effective budgeting and forecasting. By analysing past spend patterns, trends and down to line-item costs, you can make more informed predictions and allocate resources more efficiently.
Spend analysis helps in monitoring compliance with procurement policies and controlling maverick or off-contract spend. It ensures that all expenditures align with your organisation’s guidelines and regulatory requirements. Is your procurement team ready to leverage spend analysis for a competitive edge?
