There’s a dynamic in procurement that no one talks about.
Practitioners know the implementation failure rate is 80%. They know their organization may not be ready for the platform they’re about to select. Some of them have watched it happen before — the timeline slippage, the scope expansion, the blame shifting, the quiet exit.
They want independent intelligence. They need it. But consuming it carries risk.
A CPO mid-implementation can’t have a critical vendor assessment showing up on a corporate expense report. A consultant can’t visibly subscribe to a service that scores their firm’s partner vendors. A procurement director who challenges a vendor selection — armed with evidence — can put their career on the line.
So they read the posts. They download the free reports. They follow from a distance. And when the decision goes wrong, they’re the ones who saw it coming but couldn’t say so.
This is the reality the Hansen Fit Score™ subscription was redesigned to address.
Every subscriber identity is confidential — never disclosed to vendors, other subscribers, or in any publication. Transaction descriptions are generic. No vendor names. No assessment titles. Fully compatible with standard enterprise procurement processes.
For those who need complete separation, we offer private invoicing through a non-attributed channel. No company name required. No corporate email required.
The library now covers seven vendors — SAP Ariba, Coupa, Zycus, Gartner, JAGGAER, Ivalua, and Oracle — each scored on the same four dimensions with documented Capability-to-Outcome Gaps. Individual reports retail at $1,750 each. The subscription includes all of them, plus virtual quarterly briefings, monthly insight memos, and 18 years of archive access.
$3,000/year: https://payhip.com/b/qm5K6
The intelligence is yours. No one needs to know you have it.
Exposed. Explainable. Repeatable.
