What is Tail-Spend?
A large number of categories
Spend spread across business locations
Suppliers not known
Non-compliance
Low value, high transaction volumes
Overview
Issues High transaction costs?
Fire fighting?
Cavalier attitude to risk?
Wasted opportunity?
Why is it often ignored?
Poor data visibility
Lack of effective controls
Little market coverage
Seemingly low potential savings
Lack of interest from other stakeholders
Lack of category expertise
…..It’s not just the ‘trivial’ purchases!
Overview
The main causes:
Lack of compliance and, therefore, spend visibility
Emergency purchases
Spend not covered by current contracts
The real cost:
Paying higher prices
Large invoice-handling workload
Exposure to risk
Overview
Things to consider:
Spend visibility
Filtering & reclassification
Sourcing
Online eRFx & eAuction tools
Spot buys
Repeat spot buys onto contract
Accelerated sourcing techniques
Purchase-to-Pay
P-cards, online catalogues, punch-outs
Accounts Payable

e.g. marketing services
Broader Classification
Overview
Steady Tail None contractable spend
High price volatility
Use appropriate techniques:
Overview
Segment Techniques
Misclassified items Reclassify & incorporate into existing contracts
Low price, high frequency Sourcing, Pcards & use of managed services
One time, high value Rapid RFP & eAuction methods
