The I6 Group’s Challenges
Uncontrolled SaaS sprawl
Rapid expansion led to the use of nearly 360 tools and SaaS subscriptions across the organization without proper oversight. This SaaS sprawl was creating a huge overhead on their budgets.
Ineffective procurement process
Decentralized buying and lack of planning in the procurement process resulted in reactive decision-making. With teams empowered to purchase their SaaS tools, I6 group struggled to streamline their procurement process.
No central visibility into SaaS
Limited visibility into tool usage lead to challenges in understanding subscriptions and optimizing costs. Opacity in the tools being bought and licenses used made it a challenge to make informed decisions on SaaS renewals.
I6 Group turned to Spendflo, a solution that brought organization and efficiency to their procurement processes.
