ATLANTA, GA / ACCESSWIRE / November 1, 2021 / SpendHQ has become an independent company as of July 1, 2021. Born as an internal product developed by procurement consulting firm Insight Sourcing Group, SpendHQ has become one of the largest spend analytics software products in North America. It has amassed an impressive roster of Fortune 500 and Private Equity clients and has analyzed over $5 trillion in procurement spend for hundreds of customers.
In conjunction with the spin off, SpendHQ has received $10 million in funding. This investment is provided primarily by SpendHQ's former parent company and its executives and affiliates. Insight Sourcing Group Holdings will remain the majority owner.
This announcement comes on the heels of the appointment of SaaS veteran Scott Macfee as the new CEO of SpendHQ. In 2020, SpendHQ grew over 35% and, unlike many SaaS companies, achieved double digit profitability. This investment under Scott's leadership will accelerate an ambitious roadmap focused on growth and value creation for our procurement clients.
According to SpendHQ founder and board member Tom Beaty, "SpendHQ benefited mightily from its affiliation with Insight Sourcing Group and still does as a platform built for procurement professionals by procurement professionals. However, we seek to have the best of both worlds: close access to over 150 of the top sourcing experts in the world, while having the autonomy to operate as a true SaaS business focused on growth and innovation."
According to new SpendHQ CEO Scott Macfee "At the core of our business is driving actionable insights for our customers that result in meaningful savings. This investment in our business will drive the acceleration of our AI/ML powered insights capabilities, third party data enrichment and ERP integrations along with bringing game changing capabilities that don't exist in the market currently that leverage our deep procurement heritage and expertise. Along with advancing our roadmap, we'll be further investing in our go-to- market team to ensure more clients have the opportunity to leverage our market leading platform."
