In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

A manufacturing company producing steel beams tracks Maverick Spend to determine how much of its procurement budget is being spent outside of approved supplier contracts or purchase processes. For example, if the company spends ₹100 crores on procurement, but ₹10 crores is spent on purchases not made through the approved procurement process, the Maverick Spend Percentage is 10%. High Maverick Spend indicates inefficiencies and risks in the procurement process.
