Estimate in two minutes the annual gains that SRM-type procurement software would bring your organisation: procurement team productivity, savings on supplier negotiation, reduced maverick spend and recovery on non-conformities. Methodology sourced from Hackett, Deloitte, APQC and Gartner.
Enter 6 key variables about your procurement function. The results update instantly, with a breakdown by lever and the estimated payback.
Four independent levers, each anchored on public benchmarks. Not a single figure comes from our imagination: everything is sourced and auditable.
Automating repetitive tasks (data entry, chasing, consolidation). A buyer recovers 200 to 400 hours a year, redeployed onto value-adding activities (sourcing, negotiation, supplier management).
Axiscope baseline: 501 person-days for 12 buyers / 1,200 suppliersConsolidated spend visibility, structured e-sourcing, a rationalised panel. Digital procurement departments capture 3 to 6% of gains on the volume they manage in the first year.
Source: Deloitte CPO Survey + HackettCatalogues, approval workflows and business rules bring part of maverick spending back within the contracted scope. 5 to 16% of negotiated savings are lost without that control.
Source: Hackett Group + APQC (≥ 2.5% of total spend)Contractual traceability, supplier scoring and improvement plans make it possible to detect, document and invoice discrepancies. Non-conformity costs represent more than 5% of turnover on average.

| Lever | Assumption | Source | Year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buyer productivity | −28% procurement staffing in world-class digital organisations, −18% operating costs | Hackett Group | 2022 |
| Negotiation savings | 3 to 6% of managed spend, ROI ≤ 12 months on procurement digitalisation programmes | Deloitte CPO Survey | 2023 |
| Maverick spending | At least 2.5% of total purchasing in organisations ≥ $500M; the cost of a manual PO between $14 and $54 | APQC Open Standards | 2022 |
| Maverick spending (loss) | 5 to 16% of negotiated savings lost because of off-contract purchases | Hackett Group | 2021 |
| Spend visibility | 3 to 11% of total spend not visible or badly categorised in organisations without a platform | Gartner | 2022 |
| Non-conformity costs | Non-quality costs represent more than 5% of turnover on average; 15% of companies exceed 10% | AFNOR | 2017 |
| Inefficient sourcing | $134 billion a year of losses linked to deficient sourcing among US mid-size companies | Aberdeen Group | 2020 |
| Productivity (Axiscope baseline) | 501 person-days saved on a scope of 12 buyers / 1,200 suppliers | Axiscope (internal spreadsheet) | 2025 |
| Digital maturity modulation | Coefficient ×1.0 (paper-spreadsheets) / ×0.6 (partial) / ×0.3 (advanced) across all levers | Axiscope (calibration) | 2026 |
Values pre-filled in the simulator according to the sector chosen. All adjustable in expert mode.
| Sector | % maverick spend | NCs / year | Average NC cost | % negotiation gain |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industry | 12 % | 200 | 150 € | 4 % |
| Distribution / Retail | 15 % | 100 | 100 € | 3,5 % |
| B2B services | 18 % | 50 | 80 € | 3 % |
| Health / Pharma | 8 % | 300 | 200 € | 4 % |
| Public sector | 10 % | 80 | 100 € | 2,5 % |
Three building blocks, activated separately or as an integrated suite depending on your maturity.
Centralise the supplier base, assess performance, track non-conformities and action plans. This is the foundation of the negotiation and NC levers.
Discover the SRM →Digitalise the RFx cycle, compare offers on weighted criteria, trace decisions. Directly activates the negotiated savings lever.
See the e-sourcing module →Purchase orders, approval workflows, contracting. Reduces maverick spend and makes spending commitments reliable.
See P2P →Four independent levers are added together: productivity (hours saved × loaded hourly cost), negotiated savings (% of managed spend), reduced maverick spend (40% of maverick spending recovered) and non-conformity recovery (60% of the NC cost avoided). Each lever is then modulated by your digital maturity and the prudence slider (conservative ×0.5, median ×1.0, ambitious ×1.5).
Every default assumption is sourced from public publications: Hackett Group, Deloitte CPO Survey, APQC Open Standards, Gartner, AFNOR and Aberdeen. The productivity baseline (501 person-days for 12 buyers / 1,200 suppliers) comes from an internal Axiscope spreadsheet built on real projects. You can consult the "Sources and methodology" table higher up the page.
The simulator uses an indicative annual cost of around €25,000 + 0.05% of the purchasing volume managed, plus a setup of the order of €40,000. The actual terms depend on the functional scope activated (SRM alone, P2P, the full suite), the number of users and the complexity of the ERP integration. Request a demo for a personalised quote.
Payback is calculated from the net annual gain (savings − recurring cost) against the setup cost. For median mid-caps in "median" mode, it falls between 6 and 14 months. Organisations still on paper/spreadsheets achieve the fastest ROI; those already partly digitalised see a longer payback but more solid incremental gains.
Yes. Choose the closest sector (Industry for the production of goods, B2B services for pure tertiary, Distribution for trading), then open expert mode to set your own maverick spend percentages, your number of non-conformities and your negotiation target. The calculation adapts entirely to your parameters.
Indirectly. The "conservative" prudence slider (×0.5) reflects progressive adoption and internal friction. The digital maturity coefficient takes the starting point into account. To include the hidden costs (training, support, ERP dual run), increase the setup cost shown by 15 to 25% — that is the range observed on procurement digitalisation projects.
