Having published its first State of Spend Report in October, Sievo looks into how world’ s biggest procurement organisations manage their spend
Sievo’ s report uses real procurement data instead of surveys or projections. Drawing from US $ 1.4tn of the US $ 2tn in annual enterprise spending processed through its platform – roughly 2 % of worldwide GDP – the report examines six major industries. The State of Spend 2025 look at:
• Healthcare
• Chemicals and biotechnology
• Manufacturing and automotive
• FMCG( fast-moving consumer goods)
• Infrastructure and utilities
• Services and retail
Each industry section delivers insights into:
• PO coverage – measuring purchase order discipline and maverick spend
• Due to pay – tracking payment timing and cash flow management
• Invoice to due – assessing invoice processing efficiency
• Supplier and invoice fragmentation – analysing the number of suppliers and invoices per US $ 1bn in spend
Looking at how procurement is evolving and highlights how data and analytics are becoming central to spend management.
“ This report shows what top performers are really doing. These aren’ t hypotheticals we’ re analysing, they’ re patterns from real spend that can help you understand where you stand and where you need to go”
