Initial Situation
A company with 400 employees discovers that 30% of orders run outside framework agreements. Employees order from arbitrary vendors, sometimes luxury items or personal goods through company accounts. Procurement only learns about orders after the fact. €120,000 in excess costs arise annually from non-compliant ordering behavior.
Your Solution with simple system
- Assortment Restrictions: Only approved categories and vendors visible
- Unit Price Limits: Maximum article prices prevent luxury purchases
- Order Value Limits: Spending limits per employee and period
- Approval Processes: Unusual orders escalated for review
Result: Maverick buying drops from 30% to under 3%. All orders go through approved channels.
Your Benefit
- Time savings: Maverick buying control significantly relieves procurement
- EBIT impact: +€43,200/year (8% price improvement) + €120,000/year (avoided non-compliant orders) = +€163,200/year
