For cost-conscious companies, tracking spend is essential. Different departments have different expenditure needs and want to purchase from preferred vendors. And with employees in multiple locations, you face an increasing need for smart, effective controls and complete visibility to avoid the overspending and unexpected costs that can limit business growth potential.

Sage Intacct spend management software lets you govern all company spending compared to your budgets, so you never spend more than you should. And with real-time dashboards, you can thoroughly analyze the “spend trend” to stay on top of company purchases and reduce unplanned variances.

Now that our supervisors actually see their financials on a daily basis in Sage Intacct and know how much money they have available to spend, they’re tightening their belts and taking cost control very seriously. As a result, we’ve cut the variance between our operating expenditures and operating revenues in half. Thanks to this declining variance, we’re able to expend our property tax levy income for much-needed capital improvements, as opposed to spending it on operations.
