A GEP Case Study
Lionsgate, a global entertainment company with divisions across film, TV and streaming, was operating on three ERP systems and relying heavily on P‑cards, which left it with limited visibility into its roughly $1 billion annual spend. The company needed an enterprise-wide solution to consolidate data, improve spend analysis and categorization, and align visibility with entertainment‑industry processes.
Lionsgate deployed GEP SMART globally within 12 months, implementing spend‑analysis tools, monthly data refreshes, vendor‑parent linkage and a spend‑visibility dashboard. The platform delivered 97% spend visibility and more than 90% classification accuracy, reduced vendor duplication (parent compression) by 13%, provides monthly refreshes in three days (within SLA), and enabled better supplier consolidation and low‑dollar purchase insights for improved procurement decisions.
