| An international CPG manufacturer used to have a cumbersome annual process where each of their 13 international locations would take several weeks to provide a series of spreadsheets, which then took a long time to collate at HQ, before out of date information was finally available.
The mainstream spend management system vendors initially approached all sought high software and implementation costs, as well as requiring major process changes.
Xpend was chosen because of its unique combination of a quick and simple implementation (using the “Software as a Service” delivery model) and high degree of relevant functionality.
By implementing xpend, results are now available immediately new invoice data is uploaded, and any new mappings competed. The vastly improved analysis capability is also available more widely, enabling the entire spend organisation to identify and deliver significant cost reduction opportunities, locally and globally.
