Many
providers
have item

are bloated

items that are
non-strategic.

“right-sizing”
the item
master.
12. Pain Points = Opportunity for Savings
• Poor contract compliance waste
• Data Management and item-level detail is poor
• Minimal or no automation
• Manual processes = unnecessary FTE costs and waste
• Large volume of AP exceptions = rework / waste
• No Single User Interface many “one off” connections
• Punchout pricing is inaccurate; no way to audit
• Excessive Purchase Order-to-Supplier transaction time
• Heavy reliance on GPOs minimal local contracting
