Source system count · owned by Chief Procurement Officer · Function head

Observed is the count the source systems return. more

Observed comes straight from what the connected systems return. The remainder is split between what the platform can reconstruct and what it is told exists.

What is happening in the unseen share

Off-contract buying settled on a corporate card and reconciled later.

Who has signed for it
