Organizations with a high Hansen Fit Score (i.e., strong alignment across Metaprise, Agent-Based, and Strand Commonality dimensions) are:

  • 2x to 3x more likely to report successful implementations
  • Far less likely to fall into trouble or failure zones
  • Better equipped to integrate, govern, and scale solutions without disruption

ProcureTech Implementation Success WITH A LOW Hansen Fit Score

  • Column 1 – Enterprise Solutions
  • Column 2 – Mid-Market Solutions
  • Column 3 – Agile/Niche Solutions

ProcureTech Implementation Success WITH A HIGH Hansen Fit Score

  • Column 1 – Enterprise Solutions
  • Column 2 – Mid-Market Solutions
  • Column 3 – Agile/Niche Solutions

RAM 2025 Level 2 Assessment of the above ROI Graph

MODEL 1 (LEVEL 2)

Here is an ROI (%) estimate by provider based on industry benchmarks and average annual savings (as shown in earlier data). This is based on a $250,000 average annual contract cost:


ROI (%) by Provider

MODEL 2 (LEVEL 2)

ROI estimates, adjusted for realistic savings and failure risks, are:

  • Coupa: 100–250%
  • SAP Ariba: 100–200%
  • Ivalua: 120–250%
  • ORO Labs: 150–300%
  • Focal Point: 50–150%
  • AdaptOne: 50–100%

MODEL 3 (LEVEL 2)

MODEL 4 (LEVEL 2)

MODEL 5 (LEVEL 2)

Based on industry research and benchmarking data, here are reasonable ROI expectations for these procurement technology providers:

Reasonable ROI (%) by Provider:

Tier 1 – Enterprise Solutions:

SAP Ariba: 300-500% ROI

  • Established platform with proven track record
  • Strong supplier network effects
  • Higher implementation costs but substantial scale benefits
  • Typical 3-5 year payback period

Coupa: 400-600% ROI

  • Cloud-native architecture with faster implementation
  • Strong spend analytics and AI capabilities
  • Better user adoption rates driving higher utilization
  • Proven track record with mid-to-large enterprises

Ivalua: 350-550% ROI

  • Comprehensive S2P suite with strong customization
  • Excellent for complex procurement requirements
  • Higher upfront investment but strong long-term returns
  • Particularly strong in manufacturing and healthcare

Tier 2 – Emerging/Specialized Solutions:

ORO Labs: 450-700% ROI

  • AI-powered orchestration with faster time-to-value
  • Lower implementation complexity
  • Higher percentage returns due to lower base costs
  • Strong integration capabilities reducing total cost

Focal Point: 400-650% ROI

  • Built by CPOs for CPOs – higher user adoption
  • Streamlined implementation process
  • Mid-market focus with excellent cost-efficiency ratio
  • Modern architecture enabling faster ROI realization

AdaptOne: 300-500% ROI

  • Specialized niche solutions with targeted benefits
  • Variable ROI depending on specific use case
  • Generally lower total investment with focused returns

Key Factors Affecting These ROI Ranges:

  1. Organization Size: Larger organizations typically see higher absolute savings but similar percentage ROI
  2. Implementation Quality: Proper change management can increase ROI by 100-200%
  3. Baseline Maturity: Organizations with less mature procurement see higher initial ROI
  4. Time Horizon: Most ROI figures are calculated over 3-5 years

Important Considerations:

  • Industry Standards: Most procurement technology ROI ranges from 300-800% over 3-5 years
  • Vendor Claims vs. Reality: Vendor-reported ROI is often 50-100% higher than customer-realized ROI
  • Implementation Risk: Higher promised ROI often correlates with higher implementation risk

These figures represent realistic expectations based on successful implementations, not best-case vendor projections.

  3. Automation Level: Higher automation (ConvergentIS Rio, ApolloRise Pulsar) drives better efficiency gains
  4. Integration Capabilities: SAP-integrated solutions (ConvergentIS) and orchestration platforms (ORO) provide better enterprise ROI

Important Considerations:

  • Industry Standards: Most procurement technology ROI ranges from 300-800% over 3-5 years
  • AI Premium: AI-powered solutions (ApolloRise, ORO Labs) command higher ROI expectations
  • Implementation Risk: Higher promised ROI often correlates with higher implementation complexity
  • Market Maturity: Newer providers may show higher theoretical ROI but with less proven track record

These figures represent realistic expectations based on successful implementations and documented performance metrics.
