2. Data Manager is where all
your spend and spend-
related data is stored – one
secure, central location.
Data Manager accepts data in any file format – provided, of course, it’s not a read-only format.
Inventory files, accounts payable, p-card files, supplier information files and any other type of files that
need to be loaded, in any language, in any currency.

3. Reporting & Analysis provides a
visual representation of all the
data stored in Data Manager
Reporting & Analysis is where you view your data that is stored in Data Manager. Reports are provided
in a visual, interactive method that simplifies complex analysis and provides instant insight to an
organization’s spend, sourcing opportunities, savings and compliancy rates.

4. Basic spend analysis
provides low overall
strategic value.
Basic spend analysis is collecting,
cleansing and classifying your data.
Reports of the cleansed data give
you the information you need to
make decisions.
Data Manager and Reporting & Analysis combined provide basic spend analysis. All of the benefits of
collecting, cleansing and classifying your data, as well as a visual analysis of your data are provided,
allowing you to make sourcing and saving decisions. However, there is much more available to give you
advanced spend management.

Manager module
allows you to make
changes to your data

you to add more
information to your data

7. With just one extended
module, the value of your
spend is analysis is less
than with all modules
Any combination of modules is possible, but again, the strategic value is not as high.

Manager gives you the highest
strategic value of your spend analysis
Performance Manager incorporates full-compliance monitoring across sourcing and saving projects, as
well as tracking of spend activity for specific categories against sourcing award and contract activity.
