Executive Summary
Your procurement and supply chain businesses are perhaps hounding you for continuous supplier and spend intelligence – reports that will help drive supplier selection decisions, track performance of suppliers and manage spend to be within budget. However, your supplier data requires de-duplication, normalization and enrichment – enrichment with various sources of information such as credit and risk, debarred businesses, minority owned, and corporate ownership information to help during critical supplier discussions and negotiations. IT no longer needs to drown from these requests and spend weeks or even months responding to this request. With SAP’s solutions, and partnerships with 3rd party data providers, you can empower your procurement, finance and supply chain business users.

Increasing Costs & Reaction to Risk
75% of CFOs under pressure to increase savings and decrease risk (Aberdeen Group, 2010)
Less than 40% of finance professionals are currently enriching their spend data with risk information, making savings erosion an even more critical problem (Aberdeen Group, 2010)
Global Trends
Shifting CPO Focus
70% of CPOs expressed a need to focus on Competitive Insight, Risk, Compliance, and Supplier Management vs. Transaction Management (CPO Research)
86% of purchasing and finance professionals rate Spend Analysis as a high value function (Aberdeen Group, 2010)
Procurement is taking on a strategic role to deliver value and bottom line savings
Limited Spend Visibility
34% of enterprises still do not have an automated means to collect and aggregate spend data from various sources (G/L, AP, ERP, etc.) to achieve timely, accurate and complete information (Aberdeen Group, 2010)
Inadequate or ‘too late’ spend insights
Growing Need for Reliable Data
56% of ISM members rate data reliability as the number one challenge in strategic sourcing (Institute of Supply Management, 2009)
62% of all enterprises are still using manual means to classify and cleanse spend data (Aberdeen Group, 2010)
US Department of Defense reports that 40% of excess costs were the result of unreliable data
Customers want an integrated, repeatable process to ensure reliable analyses

Data Enrichment and Classification OnDemandSolution Overview
A cloud-based, network application that combines spend data with global content and services to improve data reliability for strategic sourcing and spend analytics.
How can I aggregate all my spend data in one place and be sure it’s
accurate?
Manage accuracy and completeness of company-wide spend data from multiple sources
Gather data from SAP and non-SAP sources
Data Collection
My supplier identities are obscured due to poor
data quality and lack of content!
Increase leverage opportunities with normalized suppliers
Improve decision-making with enriched content
Enrichment
How do I know what I’m really buying?
Increase visibility to both direct and indirect spend
Improve understanding of spend activity with a consistent structure for goods and services
Classification
How can I add my own knowledge into the
process?
Incorporate subject matter expertise with the Revision tool
Apply changes to the current cycle and future cycles for continuous improvement

What Do Data Collection Do?
Lack of standard process for collecting data from disperse systems
Lack of integration into external data sources
Standard ETL tool to support external data collection Integration into SAP Spend Performance Management to
collect raw information Monitor progress towards meeting timelines
Result: Organizations can increase accuracy, timeliness and automation decreasing risk of bad data and TCO
Challenge SAP Benefit
Definition• The purpose of Data Collection is to ensure a complete and accurate aggregation of spend data from multiple sources on
a periodic basis.
• During the Data Collection phase, master and transaction files are received from multiple sources and reviewed for accuracy, technical validity and content integrity. Sources are then approved for further processing or rejected.
Result: Organizations are unable to collect their data in a timely and automated fashion.
© 2011 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 15
What Do Supplier Data Standardization and Enrichment Do?
Lack of standard process for entering supplier names into transaction systems
Lack of supplier parent/child relationships among suppliers Lack of supplier specific business and risk data
Standard view of all suppliers for goods and services Leverage total purchases to drive cost savings and
rationalize suppliers Monitor progress towards meeting Diversity Supplier
initiatives Identify suppliers who may be a risk to the supply chain
due to financial instability
Result: Organizations can increase leverage opportunities by normalizing business entities and improve decision-making with enriched content
Challenge SAP Benefit
Definition• Supplier standardization validates suppliers and removes duplicates. It creates linkages between supplier corporate
parents and their children
• Supplier enrichment enhances supplier data with information about a supplier’s diversity status (e.g. Minority-owned, Women-owned, Veteran-owned), or credit/financial risk, etc.
Result: Organizations are unable to analyze their spend by supplier, and cannot leverage total spend

What Is Spend Data Classification?
• Procurement, Supply Chain and Financial transaction systems may not have a standard classification structure across the enterprise for assigning goods and services to a category
• Users may incorrectly classify data at the point of entry in the transaction system
• Standard Standard view of all goods and services purchased across the enterprise
• Leverage total spend to drive cost savings, monitor compliance, and rationalize suppliers
Challenge SAP Benefit
Definition• Spend Data Classification is the process of assigning procurement spend purchases to a standard structure such as
UNSPSC, the SAP taxonomy, or a custom structure
Result: Since purchases are not classified to a single, standard enterprise-wide structure, procurement organizations cannot analyze their total category spend across the enterprise
Result: Organizations can now increase visibility to both direct and indirect spend with a consistent category scheme.

20,000+ lines of businesses
20+ years of history
50+ industries
$350+ billion in spend
20+ key variables
© 2011 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 20
Methods of Spend Classification
Item Description ‘Cataloging’
Not all items have valid descriptions Assumes repetitive similarity in description Forces micro vs. strategic focus
Accounting
Limited depth Frequently misapplied due to budgets Indicates why not what was purchased
Industry ‘Vendor Coding’(SIC, NAICS, UNSPSC)
Not organized for sourcing – resource based Too generalized for in-depth sourcing Assumes a supplier sells one thing
SAP Method
Focuses on what was purchased by analyzing multiple variables on the transaction
Improves leverage with a more complete and accurate understanding of spend
Supports strategic sourcing

What Is Spend Data Revision?
• Automated processes cannot always guarantee the individual customer data situation is handled correctly
• Due to individual factors there still might be not classified data sets that need to be matched / analyzed
• Standard process for the data stewards support reliability efforts
• Easy to use user interfaces to enable the customer to act as the data steward
• System gets “smarter” each run by enhanced logic
Challenge SAP Benefit
Definition• Revision is the process of reviewing the enrichment, validation and classification processes from a data steward
perspective to add expertise to the process for continuous improvement
Result: Automated rules of all degrees of sophistication cannot handle specifics of individual customer cases and might not deliver the desired results. Customers need to be able to easily review the data and modify the results of the processed rules
Result: Organizations can now increase the value of the automation by complementing the rules engine with unique customer data knowledge.

How does Revision help? Process support vs. Excel spreadsheets
During the revision phase, classifications can be changed or refined as needed
The revision tool itself can be used to review and apply changes on-the-spot
Out of box reports are also available to facilitate review
Example1. During classification review, the data
steward notices that some transactions having account “freight provision” should be in the freight category
2. Using the revision tool, the data steward filters on “freight provision” and selects the transactions to reclassify
3. Updated results are applied for continuous improvement

Global Consumer Packaged Goods CompanyResults
Business Case A Global Business Intelligence (BI) solution that will provide
end-to-end procurement Spend Analytics that supports our Global RFx and Category Management strategy.
Improved visibility to item level detail segmented by commodity from each region leading to greater procurement savings.
An enabler to achieve our already committed world-class savings targets. We concluded that it would be mandatory to have tools such as Spend Analytics to support this already committed savings goal. Incrementally, we assumed a conservative 0.1% savings on total direct spend.
Further savings from cycle time reduction
– Additional sourcing events can be held each year
– More time available for strategy and supplier bid analysis
