A spend diagnostic engine gets you the full picture fast — what they buy, how much control they have, and where the gaps are — so your time goes on what you do best: validating and prioritising the savings, faster.
Mutual NDA before any data moves — and the first glimpse is free.
You could rebuild the spreadsheet from scratch for every bid and burn the window on data prep. Or run it on the Spend Diagnostic Engine:
Deliver that diagnostic well and you win this client's next few years of work — hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. The proposal gets you in the door; the diagnostic wins the follow-on. And it all rests on one thing: the underlying analysis being defensible.
You have a short window to deliver the diagnostic. Most of it disappears into hidden work — checking the export, fixing what won't join, working out what's missing. Every day on data prep is a day you're not finding the savings the client is paying you to find.
And there are still two ways it goes wrong. Get one number challenged in the steering committee and you look like you haven't gone deep enough — now every finding is in doubt. Or the data's fine, but you spend the window chasing ideas that lead nowhere and land nothing.
Send your messy export and the tool classifies it, reconciles what joins, and flags what's missing — so you reach a dataset you can work from in days, not weeks of hand-cleaning.
Every figure traces back to the PO and invoice lines behind it. So when a number gets questioned, you show where it came from on the spot instead of rebuilding it live — and the rest of your findings hold.
Clean data is the starting point. The edge is direction: Spend Sphere points you to where the savings are most likely, so you dig there first instead of everywhere.
It shows not just what the client buys, but how — off-contract spend, split POs, the same supplier paid three different ways. That context is where the real opportunities sit, and it often surfaces early wins and insights the sponsor hasn't seen — so you land as the trusted advisor, fast. See how it works →
The Spend Diagnostic Engine runs the same, programme after programme — a codified process, not a moving target that shifts with whoever last tweaked the Excel model. Try it on your bid sample for free, then we work with you on the diagnostic.
Sign first, then send us your data.
We load in your data, classify part of it, and show you how they're buying. Your whole team can then explore it together through our secure online portal.
You win the work, we take in more data, classify it, and run a full, deep analysis across it.
How fast is it? Fast — first insights in as little as a day, and always to your bid deadline, agreed up front. Your time goes on the analysis, not the data prep.
How much data can it take? As much as you've got. Unlike dashboard software, Spend Sphere is built for speed and scale — billions in annual spend, across multiple years and multiple ERPs, comfortably. 50+ people can work in it at once, all on the same live dataset — no emailing spreadsheets around.
Is it proven? Yes — run on multiple billion-dollar spend diagnostics, and improved constantly. You get the benefit of everything we've learned working with others — the method and IP, never their data. Not benchmarks; your data stays yours. See proof.
So who turns the evidence into the pitch? You do. We give you the evidence base — we're not a substitute for your judgement or client relationships, and we don't rank opportunities into waves. That's your call.
What does it cost? The first glimpse is free — test it out, and we help you win the work. If you go ahead, pricing starts from $15k up to $50k, quoted before you bid. Ex-GST.
Is it secure? Yes — built to meet the security requirements your client and your internal security team will have. Australian-hosted, encrypted, with a mutual NDA before any data moves. Ask us for our data security sheet.
What data do you need? Invoice data as a minimum. PO, supplier master and contract data help round out the picture — Excel files are fine. We'll help your future client pull the right data too; we've worked with most ERP and purchasing systems, including Coupa and Ariba.
For your team to review — not an audit finding. We look at PO, invoice, contract and supplier data — not control testing, cyber, supplier governance, or resilience testing. We do not guarantee savings.
Mutual NDA first. We load your sample in the tool, then you decide on the full programme.
