Labor cost savings.
Although job titles may vary, the functional roles of each organization’s procure-to-pay programs are similar.
In a sample of 500 purchasing agents in a given organization, thousands would be spending time on procurement processing, oversight, approval, and audit preparation.
- Manual tasks that can be automated: 16 hours per user, per month
- Over 115,200 hours spent annually
- Annual workforce labor expense for manual tasks: $5,933,952
Materials cost savings.
Document lifecycle expenses include document creation, printing, copying, storage, retrieval, and destruction. While paper use varies widely by role within a procurement program, buyers alone generate on average 3-5 pages of content per transaction for their statement packets. During peak purchasing times, an agent will generate 150 transactions in a single month—resulting in a 600-page reconciliation report!
- 3-5 pages per transaction at $4.82 per page
- Monthly cost per cardholder: $150.39
- Annual organizational paper cost: $1,082,808
