Why Standard Analysis Misses the Real Leaks
Most spend reviews only look at a fraction of the data — the General Ledger. It tells you who you’re paying, but hides the tell-tale signs buried in purchase orders and invoices:.
The value and timing of each PO.
Invoice approval patterns and exceptions.
Supplier registration vs. payment timing (fraud red flag).
Duplicate invoices that pass unnoticed.
Looking only at the GL is like reading the index of a book and thinking you know the whole story. The leaks hide in the paragraphs, not the headings.

Big Organisations Make Leakage Inevitable
In complex environments, leaks aren’t accidents — they’re guaranteed:
Systems that don’t talk to each other.
Processes patched together over years.
People finding shortcuts and workarounds.
Compliance drift — procedures rewritten over time to be “efficient,” drifting away from the safeguards they were designed to protect.
None of this is malicious. It’s just the environment. But it creates loopholes everywhere — and that’s where supplier spend escapes.

Real Story: What We Found in Just One LeakFinder™ Review
A major Australian mining company brought us in after growing frustrated with weak post-award contract management. They had a hunch that compliance was slipping — but no hard evidence.
Using SpendSphere™ within our LeakFinder™ process, here’s what we uncovered:
Over $1 billion had been spent using single-line POs priced at $1 each, making it impossible to verify whether the correct rates or items were being paid for
More than $200 million had been spent with 52 suppliers that had no contract in place — many of which showed non-compliant ordering (invoices before POs or no PO at all)
Operational leads couldn’t confirm whether services delivered matched contract expectations
The estimated savings opportunity was 10–15% — not through price cuts, but by simply getting control over spend.
“LeakFinder™ didn’t just find leakage — it gave us the clarity and commercial leverage we’d been missing.”

What Life Looks Like Before & After LeakFinder™
BEFORE:
You’re relying on reports that only show what’s already happened
You suspect there’s leakage, but no time to prove it
Your team is firefighting instead of investigating
Your systems don’t speak the same language — and neither do your data sets
You’re answering questions from finance with “we think…” instead of “we know…”
Every audit or contract review feels like a scramble
AFTER:
You’ve got a clear list of issues backed by forensic data
Leakage, fraud markers, and non-compliance are flagged — and costed
You know exactly where the risks are and what to do next
You can proactively brief leadership and control the narrative
Your procurement function looks sharp, commercial, and in control
You walk into reviews with confidence — and evidence
