The Lavante Estimator provides more accurate estimates than industry averages by using vendor-specific results from Lavante's previous audits. It analyzes a client's vendor master file and estimates potential recoveries leveraging Lavante's database of 2 million vendors. The Estimator helps set expectations for an audit's results. It generates estimates within hours and previews the analysis and steps Lavante would take in an audit. The Estimator leverages Lavante's vendor experience to provide a comprehensive analysis of duplicate vendors, recoveries over time, and vendor file updates.

ESTIMATOR
Powerful Estimation Technology
The Estimator does not rely on overall industry average recovery rates to estimate your results.
Instead, we use results specific to your vendors where possible and augment that with historical
results from our Strategic Recovery audits. This results in more detailed, accurate, and therefore more
useful estimates.
Utilizes Vendor-Specific Information
There’s a good chance that Lavante will have audit experience with many of your vendors and that
many more will be in our Supplier Network of over 2 million vendors. This allows us to update vendor
contact information, determine potential duplicates and related vendors, and project audit results for
specific vendors from actual experience.
Helps Set Expectations
Some audits produce more than you think, some less. While it’s impossible to know for sure ahead of
time what the results of your audit would be, the Estimator will help refine expectations.
Simple. Easy. Fast.
All we need to start is your vendor master file with one or preferably two years of spend history. Once
we receive this information and load it into the Lavante application, results will be generated within a
matter of hours.
Vertical Market Experience
Lavante has significant experience in major vertical markets including: Manufacturing, Healthcare,
Transportation, Railroads, Retail, Pharmaceuticals, Entertainment, Grocery, Hospitality and Fast Food,
among others. Thus, chances are good Lavante has specific experience with many of your vendors
already, making estimates even better.
Head Start to an Audit
The steps and analysis we go through to produce an estimate are some of the same steps for the start
of an audit. Thus, should you contract with Lavante to perform an audit, you’ll have a head start on
our already speedy Strategic Recovery process.
Comprehensive Vendor-Side Review
The Estimator previews Lavante’s software automation tools which enable us to do a deeper, more
comprehensive review than traditional recovery methods. By partnering with you and leveraging
automation, we communicate with the highest possible number of your vendors—not simply a
percentage. This results in more recoveries, faster.
Power of Vendor Knowledge
Since Lavante likely has experience with a good portion of your vendors, chances are we already have
insight into parent/sub structures and have points of contact with those vendors. This allows us to
recover more profits, enhance vendor relationships and provide you more corrections to your vendor
master file. Duplicate vendors frequently leads to duplicate payments, so this maintenance function
provides a key “prevent” control.
The Lavante ProForma Estimator generates a preview of the likely cash recoveries and vendor updates
you will receive if you choose to engage in a Lavante Strategic Recovery audit. Utilizing your master
vendor file, the Estimator leverages Lavante’s extensive database of historical audit detail, a proprietary,
on-demand software application and a supplier network of over 2 million companies to develop a
comprehensive vendor and recovery analysis. The Estimator previews potential cash recoveries,
duplicate and related vendors, recovery projections over time, vendor updates, and more.

Results of Lavante ProForma Estimator are based on actual historical results from Lavante’s recovery audit customers and from vendor information in the
Lavante Supplier Network. The Lavante ProForma Estimator combines this information with Lavante vendor analysis and the prospect’s vendor spend file to
project potential recoveries and vendor updates. Historical experience cannot guarantee future results, which are dependent on additional factors to those
being considered in this analysis.
