Get started with spend optimisation

Spend Optimisation is an integrated approach to corporate spend for achieving frictionless finance. How? Using automation at scale, digital transformation, and data visibility.

Expense, invoice, and travel management often operate in silos - limiting insight, risking fraud, and increasing overall costs. Spend Optimisation brings the six key areas of corporate spend together.

Emburse Spend Optimisation Model

Just because you’re automated, doesn’t mean you’re optimised.

Easily chart your journey to fully optimised spend across four stages of automation, using our Spend Optimisation Model: Ad Hoc, Managed, Accelerated, and Optimised.

The Emburse Spend Optimisation Model outlines your optimal path from manual, painful legacy processes to frictionless spend. We can provide your roadmap, regardless of where you are on the Spend Optimisation spectrum today.

How optimised
are you?

Emburse can help you identify which stage you are at currently for each of the six key areas of corporate spend:

Expense management
Travel management
Accounts Payable & Invoices
Payments
Insights & Analytics
Compliance & Audit

Spend optimisation picks up right where spend management ends.

Where management focuses on processes to keep spend under control, optimisation involves creating a scalable, transparent, and strategic view of an organisation’s spend.

Ad hoc

Laborious manual processes reduce productivity and don’t provide insight into spend data.

Constant delays
Outdated data
Reactivity
Paper-based, predominantly manual processes
Finance chasing down employees

Managed

Automation begins to drive down operational costs and reduce chaos.

Still lacking complete visibility
Controls are going up
Some automation
Costs are coming down

Accelerated

Spend visibility and control improves as technology is implemented.

Making better, faster decisions
Clean data
Insights from data analytics
Automated systems and processes
Virtual cards and on-time payments

Optimised

Digitally-evolved solution stack makes meeting strategic goals easier.

Systematic transformation
Technology and human expertise integrated together
Complete control
Value and ROI maximised
