Organizations still run many source-to-pay processes on antiquated software spend cubes with add-on third-party software and in some cases even spreadsheets. While these systems are effective managing transactions, they are very limited in offering the vital data and tools to enable sourcing professionals to reduce complexity, ease the purchase burden on stakeholders, and provide the necessary data to aggregate and analyze this expenditure in a meaningful way.
