Spend under management refers to the portion of an organization’s total spending that is actively managed and optimized using spend management tools and processes.

Tail spend management focuses on controlling the smaller, less frequent purchases that often fall outside regular procurement processes but can represent significant savings when managed effectively.

Spend lifecycle management involves managing and optimizing spending throughout its entire lifecycle, from initial budgeting and forecasting to procurement, payment, and reporting.
