Anaylze your Spend

Find Savings, Manage Maverick Buying, Identify Cooperative Purchasing Opportunities & Benchmark your performance

 

We're focused on outcomes

Since 2003 Spikes Cavell has equipped more than 1,000 public sector bodies with the data, tools and insight they need to find savings, become transparent, drive economic growth and benchmark their performance.

Everything we do is driven by data

Public sector spend, contract and pricing data is often incomplete, inappropriately classified and distributed across financial management and purchasing systems that are only partially integrated. This “data deficit” renders the analysis and management of spend difficult, time consuming, expensive and unreliable.

Our sophisticated, scalable and public sector specific methodology addresses the “data-deficit” by rapidly transforming your spend, supplier and contract data into actionable business intelligence regardless of the completeness, accuracy or fitness for purpose of the source.Unrivalled public sector information management expertise
