Purchase Card Monitoring In Action
One organization we work with has more than 900 corporate credit card accounts and spending activity with 10,000 merchants.

Create opportunities with CLA
Company credit cards are convenient. But you can lose sight of spend among vendors, departments, and users. CLA’s purchase card (p-card) analytics offers transparency to help you gain control of your expenses and contain costs.
A p-card assessment requires very little upfront work from you. We’ll request the activity right from your financial institution and share our data analytics insights with you. The results will help you assess business activity, improve controls, and reduce overall risk.
