Most mid-market companies haven't inventoried their software subscriptions, licenses, and IT contracts in years — while the spend grew a line at a time. In two to four weeks, we build the full picture and hand your CFO a savings roadmap: what to cancel, what to consolidate, what to renegotiate, and when.
The Spend & Contract Review is not a sixth F. It's the lowest-commitment way to experience how Corvell works: a defined scope, a measured result, and judgment you can act on whether or not you ever buy another thing from us. Findings usually point up the ladder — duplicate tools are a Flow problem, licenses nobody reconciles are a Fidelity problem, and spend nobody reviews is a Feedback problem. Ongoing vendor and contract management belongs in Forward. The review tells you which layer is leaking.
Software and IT spend grows a line at a time — a card swipe here, an auto-renewal there — until nobody holds the full picture. Five patterns show up almost everywhere we look.
SaaS gets bought one card swipe at a time — by department, by manager, by whoever hit a wall that week. Nobody holds the full list.
Contracts renew at list price with an annual uplift, because the renewal date lived in one person's inbox.
Seats provisioned years ago are still billing today. Offboarding removed the account access — not the subscription.
Overlapping platforms doing the same work in different departments, each with its own contract, admin, and invoice.
IT owns the tools, finance owns the invoices, nobody owns the spend. A Fortune 100 has a vendor-management office. You have a spreadsheet — maybe.
We bring the Fortune 100 vendor-management playbook to your contract stack — in weeks, at a fixed fee.
Not a benchmarking report and not a sales document — a prioritized, owner-assigned plan for taking cost out of the stack, delivered by a founder in a working session with your leadership.
Built for mid-market companies where IT decisions route through finance, software spend has grown faster than anyone reviewed it, and vendor management is a spreadsheet at best.
Light lift on your side: access, a kickoff, and one working session. The rest is on us.
No — it's a review of your spend, not a gotcha on your provider. Some findings may involve provider contracts; most involve software nobody's provider was ever asked to watch.
Read access to the accounting system or an export of IT/software vendor payments, invoices and contracts where you have them, and admin access (or reports) from your major platforms. Kickoff plus one working session — the rest is on us.
The review is a fixed fee. If you want help executing — renegotiations, consolidations, migrations — we scope that separately, and we'll propose the structure that fits.
The roadmap is yours either way. Many of the fixes are simple cancellations you can run internally. Where execution needs real work — consolidation, migration, renegotiation — that maps to a defined Corvell engagement, and the review tells you exactly which layer of the operating model it lives in.
That's the idea. Recovered run-rate spend is the cleanest budget there is — most clients redirect it into the layer they were missing.
A 30-minute scoping call is the fastest way to know if the review is worth it for you. Tell us roughly how many people and how many tools; we'll tell you what we'd expect to find and quote the fixed fee. No proposal until we agree on scope.
