Cost Intelligence

Cost surprises kill margins. Purchase price variance blindsides you at month-end. A supplier quietly raises prices 3% and nobody notices for six months. Commodity costs spike but you're locked into contracts that don't flex. You're always reacting—never anticipating. By the time you see the problem in a report, the damage is done.

BlackArc watches your costs continuously and alerts you to anomalies, trends, and opportunities in real-time. AI detects when prices deviate from baselines, when savings claims don't match actual spend, when cost patterns shift. Think of it as an early warning system for your margins. Spot the 3% supplier price creep the day it happens. See commodity trends forming before they hit your costs. Know exactly where every dollar goes—and where it should go.
