Procurement Analytics Tools
acty.dev builds procurement analytics tools that turn purchase orders, supplier invoices, and procurement spreadsheets into a spend-analytics dashboard or reporting surface, delivered with a data-preparation path, documentation, and maintenance notes.
We build procurement analytics tools that turn purchase orders, supplier invoices, and procurement spreadsheets into a spend-analytics dashboard or reporting surface, delivered with a data-preparation path, documentation, and maintenance notes. We do not claim ERP replacement, certified spend-management platform status, or negotiated savings and cost reductions without supporting data.
The problem we solve
Procurement spend is scattered across purchase orders, supplier invoices, and buying spreadsheets, so purchasing and operations teams have no procurement spend analytics — no consolidated view by supplier, category, or price trend — and reconciling it by hand is slow and easy to get wrong.
How we work
- Task review.We review your purchasing and supplier data sources, the spend categories and suppliers to track, and who needs the view, then agree on a scoped procurement analytics build before development starts.
- Data preparation.We define the data-preparation path that consolidates purchase orders, invoices, and supplier spreadsheets into the metrics the analytics tool will report.
- Build with review.We build the procurement analytics tool or dashboard against the agreed scope, with code review and a reviewable demo.
- Deploy and document.We deploy or hand off the tool with documentation and maintenance notes, and offer ongoing support when further work is needed.
What you bring / what you get
Inputs
- Your purchase orders, supplier invoices, or procurement spreadsheets
- The spend categories and suppliers you need visibility into
- Access to the systems the analytics tool should read
Outputs
- A procurement analytics tool or spend-analytics dashboard
- A data-preparation path consolidating the source data
- Documentation and maintenance notes
Definition of done.A procurement analytics tool or dashboard built from your purchasing, supplier, and spend data, delivered with a data-preparation path, documentation, and maintenance notes, giving purchasing and operations a consolidated spend view.
Fit and anti-fit
Good fit
- Purchasing and operations teams tracking spend by hand across supplier spreadsheets and invoices
- Manufacturers who need supplier and category spend visibility a generic spreadsheet cannot give
Not a fit
- Requests for certified spend-management platform status or ERP replacement
- Requests for negotiated savings or measured cost reductions without supporting data
Questions
- What does procurement analytics include?
- Building a procurement analytics tool or spend-analytics dashboard from your purchase orders, supplier invoices, or procurement spreadsheets, delivered with a data-preparation path, documentation, and maintenance notes.
- What is out of scope?
- We do not claim ERP replacement, certified spend-management platform status, or negotiated savings and cost reductions without supporting data.
- What do you need from us to start?
- Your purchase orders, supplier invoices, or procurement spreadsheets, the spend categories and suppliers you need visibility into, and access to the systems the analytics tool should read.
- How is this priced?
- Engagements start with a task review; scope and price are defined after that review. Larger builds and ongoing work are scoped from there.
- Can the analytics tool be maintained or extended later?
- Yes. It ships with documentation and maintenance notes and can run as recurring work, scoped after a task review.
- Is the analytics output reviewed before delivery?
- Yes. Prepared and generated data stays under human review, and the tool ships with documentation and maintenance notes.
