Cost management is more critical than ever for businesses! 📊 ◾ One-third of executives have identified it as their top strategic priority for navigating a challenging economic environment in 2025, according to the latest Boston Consulting Group (BCG) research. ◾Indeed, respondents achieved only an average of 48% of their cost-saving targets in 2024, and most say their companies struggle to maintain cost efficiencies beyond two years after the initial effort. To overcome this hurdle, they are increasingly tailoring their strategies to strengthen their unique competitive advantages. For example, some companies are generating cost efficiency and resilience by transforming every aspect of the supply chain—from product development and planning to procurement, logistics, and warehousing. 👩🏼🚒 At Spendesk, we recognise these challenges and we are empowering businesses to fully integrate procurement and spend management seamlessly. We continually build our solutions with the objective of optimising spending and procurement processes and enhancing transparency across all financial activities, making it easier to sustain and expand upon initial cost-saving achievements. 🔗 Explore more insights on cost management and strategic priorities from the latest BCG research: https://lnkd.in/ejF8rEBp
