Recommended Actions This Month
Action List — Ranked by Urgency & Financial Materiality
6 actions identified
Critical
Fazua GmbH (V-009) — Establish contract immediately
$322k spend with zero coverage. E-bike systems supplier with no pricing agreement, no terms, and no contractual protection. Largest uncontracted vendor by a wide margin. Every invoice is maverick spend.
$322,410
uncontracted
Critical
Trek Bicycle Corp. (C-005) — Initiate renewal decision now
No auto-renewal. 120-day notice period. Contract expires 09 Jun 2027. Action window opens February 2027 — 11 months away. Given Critical risk rating, renewal strategy should be defined this quarter, not next year.
$580,000

SRAM / Giant / Bosch / Shimano — Renegotiate contract values
Four contracts are materially understated. Combined actual spend of $2.76M against combined contracted value of $1.36M. Contracts do not reflect real purchase volumes — commercial terms and pricing protections are not applying to the full spend.

High
Continental AG (C-003) — Begin renewal planning
Critical risk, no auto-renewal, 90-day notice. Expires 09 Aug 2027. Renewal must be initiated by May 2027. Continental is a Tyres & Tubes supplier rated Critical — loss of supply or pricing protection would be operationally significant.
$130,000

High
Assos of Switzerland (V-015) — Establish contract
$63k uncontracted clothing spend. Second largest maverick vendor. No pricing agreement in place for a repeat supplier. Low effort to formalise; higher risk to leave uncovered given spend trajectory.
$63,130
uncontracted
Medium
Rapha Racing Ltd — Fix Vendor ID mapping
Vendor ID mismatch between systems. Rapha = V-025 in contract register but V-014 in spend data. V-025 in spend data maps to Knog Australia (different vendor). Until resolved, automated contract matching will fail for both suppliers.

Concentration risk arises when a small number of suppliers command a disproportionate share of spend — creating exposure to supply disruption, pricing leverage, and switching costs. Top 3 currently at 48.1%, approaching the 50% watch threshold.

Why this matters: When actual spend exceeds the contracted annual value, the pricing, volume discounts, and commercial terms in the contract may not apply to the full spend. This creates unpriced exposure and weakens the company's commercial position in future negotiations. Suppliers below this table (Trek +6%, Continental +2%) are within normal tolerance and excluded.

Key Observations
01
$1.4M in spend sits outside contracted commercial terms — renegotiation is overdue
Four contracted suppliers — SRAM (+161%), Giant (+132%), Bosch (+97%), Shimano (+57%) — generated $2.76M of actual spend against $1.36M of contracted value. The gap of $1.41M represents spend that falls outside the pricing, volume, and commercial protections of the contracts in place. Without renegotiation, the company is purchasing at undiscounted or unprotected rates. All four are high-frequency, high-value suppliers where a revised contract could meaningfully improve unit economics.
02
Fazua GmbH is the highest-priority gap in procurement coverage
Fazua GmbH spent $322,410 in FY 2024 with no contract in place — 71% of total maverick spend and the sixth-largest vendor overall. E-bike systems is a growing category; if this trajectory continues unchecked, Fazua will breach $400K in the next cycle. There is no pricing agreement, no delivery SLA, no liability protection, and no termination clause. Getting a contract in place should be the single highest-priority procurement action from this review.
03
Trek and Continental require active renewal management — auto-renewal is not an option
Trek Bicycle Corporation ($580K, expires Jun 2027) and Continental AG ($130K, expires Aug 2027) are both rated Critical risk with no auto-renewal. Trek requires 120 days' notice, meaning the decision point is February 2027 — 11 months away. With $710K of annual contract value, Critical risk ratings, and no fallback mechanism, the renewal process for both contracts should be scoped and assigned to contract owners now, not when the notice window opens.
