Report Cover: Procurement Benchmark Report - Education Snapshot

See how your school’s procurement performance stacks up

Procurement is one of the largest controllable expenses in education—but too often, schools lose valuable time and money to slow approvals, manual processes, and limited visibility.

The Education Procurement Benchmark Report reveals that many schools continue to face core procurement challenges—including delayed approvals, fragmented supplier management, and limited insight into how budgets are allocated.

The data highlights what separates top performers in procurement performance across education: automated purchasing, centralized vendor management, and integrated finance systems that improve visibility, efficiency, and smarter school budget planning.
