S&P Global Spend Analytics
New York City, New York, United States
What it is
S&P Global Spend Analytics is a paid solution for supply chain, procurement, and purchasing teams. It gathers spend data from multiple sources, then cleanses, rationalizes, and classifies it to help identify savings opportunities, prioritize focus areas, and track results. Its related Cost Analyzer maps spending to cost models across categories and provides price, wage, and cost data for supplier benchmarking and purchasing evaluation. Coverage includes 500,000+ historic prices, 4,000+ forecasts, and 500+ cost models across 60 geographies. Users can search by concept, geography, series type, and frequency; filter and combine series; view charts; export data; and create saved reports. Data can be revisited in the tool or a refreshable Excel workbook, and shared with colleagues. Procurement teams can modify model weights, parameters, and cost-type categories. Pricing is available on request.
