Episode 012: A Conversation with Jake Wojcik, Executive Vice President at SpendHQ and Insight Sourcing Group
Constantine Limberakis, Director of Product Marketing at SpendHQ, recently spoke with Jake Wojcik, Executive Vice President of SpendHQ and Insight Sourcing Group. As a senior executive with over 20 years of management consulting expertise, Jake has focused his career on helping organizations deliver positive EBITDA opportunities by executing on procurement optimization, spend analysis, strategic sourcing and other procurement strategies.
In this episode, Jake joins Spend Insights to share four specific strategies he has applied throughout a decade of working with private equity organizations to help them manage their spend data across numerous portfolio companies.
“You have to get down to the data points of each company that you’re going to transform the data from and that usually starts with AP data including GL codes, materials management codes, purchase orders, p-cards and expense data across every single business unit. At SpendHQ, we have an algorithm-based process to ingest all this data to normalizatize the vendors to build a true vendor categorization or taxonomy that starts at the vendor level. Certainly companies can try to do this themselves, but we are talking about millions of lines of data.”
