Outcomes agreed upfront

Platform data, applied with commercial expertise.

SpendConsole Advisory holds the execution-level data inside your platform and the commercial expertise to act on it. Outcomes are agreed upfront and delivered within weeks.

Most finance and procurement technology investments deliver only a fraction of their potential value. The platform captures the intelligence, but pricing variances remain unrecovered. Payment timing leaves working capital idle, supplier terms drift from contracted positions, and early payment programmes operate below capacity.

Control frameworks sit in isolation. Approval hierarchies are configured once and rarely revisited. Integrations across finance, risk, procurement, and enterprise systems remain partial.

The data exists, but it is not connected, optimised, or applied across the organisation. Our platform already captures this intelligence, Advisory activates it across working capital, commercial performance, automation, governance, and enterprise integration.

Three service pillars, each measured against agreed financial outcomes

01
Working capital and financial performance
01
Working capital and financial performance

Advisory works alongside finance teams to improve liquidity, generate financial return from approved payables, and reduce the cost of payment execution.

  • Payment terms strategy and rebalancing: Structured supplier engagement to extend, rebalance, and optimise payment terms in line with treasury priorities, executed through SpendConsole’s supplier engagement workflow.
  • Yield and early payment expansion: Expanding participation and optimising yield capture across your supplier base using SpendConsole Payables Yield, generating financial return from approved payables.
  • Payment execution optimisation: Optimising payment method selection and timing across suppliers using SpendConsole PayFlow, reducing transaction friction and improving working capital performance.

Liquidity improves, approved payables generate return, and payment cost comes down, measured against agreed treasury targets.

02
Procurement commercial intelligence

Procurement commercial intelligence

Execution-level spend data contains more commercial intelligence than most procurement teams have capacity to act on. Advisory converts that intelligence into targeted improvement initiatives, recovering leakage, accelerating cost reduction, and strengthening supplier accountability.

  • Commercial value acceleration: Unlocking cost reduction, margin protection, and commercial optimisation across suppliers and categories, using line-item spend data and AI-driven commercial models to prioritise the highest-value opportunities.
  • Category strategy enablement: Translating execution-level spend data into refined category strategies, sharpening supplier engagement priorities, strengthening commercial positioning, and aligning category plans to actual spend behaviour.
  • Contract and pricing compliance recovery: Recovering historical pricing variances, unclaimed rebates, duplicate payments, and missed SLA credits through structured corrective engagement, while SpendConsole holds the go-forward position.

Cost reduction accelerates, leaked value gets recovered, and supplier compliance tightens, backed by line-item data.

Platform performance and governance optimisation

Platform performance and governance optimisation

Post-implementation, most organisations hit a performance plateau, automation rates stabilise below potential, integrations remain partial, and governance frameworks are configured once and rarely revisited. Advisory conducts structured reviews and targeted optimisation initiatives to close those gaps.

  • Platform performance review: A structured assessment of automation rates, exception drivers, workflow design, and payment execution settings, producing a prioritised improvement roadmap with quantified impact.
  • Control and integration architecture optimisation: Aligning approval frameworks, enterprise integrations, and policy enforcement rules to current organisational requirements, closing integration gaps and ensuring the control environment is audit-ready.
  • Capability activation: Structured activation of underutilised SpendConsole capabilities across automation, yield, governance, and payment execution, including capabilities left dormant after go-live.

Automation rates climb, processing costs fall, and the control environment becomes audit-ready.

Our commitment

Every Advisory engagement begins with a commitment to a quantified value target. If the Value Opportunity Assessment does not identify a material opportunity, we will tell you, before any engagement or unnecessary cost is incurred.

How advisory engagements Work

Advisory engagements are short, specific, and built around agreed financial outcomes. Every engagement begins with a commitment to a quantified value target.

01
Analyse
Execution-level data, invoices, payments, expenses, exceptions, and supplier behaviour, is analysed directly within the SpendConsole platform.
02
Identify
The highest-impact financial and commercial improvement opportunities are identified and ranked by value, implementation complexity, and speed to realise.
03
Co-design
A structured action roadmap is co-designed with your finance and procurement teams, with quantified targets, clear owners, and defined timelines.
04
Implement
Advisory works alongside your team to implement agreed initiatives through SpendConsole platform capabilities.
05
Track and confirm
Realised outcomes are tracked against the committed baseline. Engagements close when the agreed value is confirmed in your accounts.

FAQs

Who delivers Advisory engagements?

Advisory engagements are led by SpendConsole’s senior finance and procurement practitioners, specialists with direct experience in enterprise payables transformation, working capital optimisation, and commercial programme delivery. You work with the same team throughout.

Do we need to be a SpendConsole customer to access Advisory?

Yes. SpendConsole Advisory is built specifically for organisations running the SpendConsole Payables Orchestration Platform. The value comes from the execution-level intelligence the platform generates, which cannot be replicated from ERP data or external sources alone.

How long does an engagement take?

The Value Opportunity Assessment is completed within 2–4 weeks. Subsequent improvement initiatives are scoped individually based on complexity and priority, designed to generate measurable outcomes within weeks.

What does it cost?

Advisory engagements are structured around agreed scope and outcomes. Pricing is confirmed following the Value Opportunity Assessment, once the opportunity has been identified and the programme of work agreed. The assessment itself is conducted at a nominal charge.

What if you cannot identify a material opportunity?

We will tell you. If the Value Opportunity Assessment does not identify an opportunity that justifies an Advisory programme, we say so clearly, before any further engagement or cost is incurred.
