That was Unite at World Procurement Congress 2026

Event date: 20.05.26 - 21.05.26
InterContinental London – The O2

This year at WPC, we brought one big question to London: What if the savings you're looking for are hiding in plain sight?

Across two days we connected with procurement leaders, challenged assumptions around tail spend and framework contracts and demonstrated how shifting from catalogue-level management to article-level demand visibility uncovers the gaps that traditional tools simply miss.

From live product demos to in-depth conversations at the event – the energy and curiosity around smarter, data-driven procurement were unmistakable.

What we showed at WPC 2026


Our 10-minute Tech Showcase on the main Expo Hall stage revealed the savings most teams don’t know they’re leaving on the table. Here’s what we covered:

Framework contracts are bigger than you think.
Your framework contracts are bigger than you think. Suppliers fill them with their full catalogue – tens of thousands of articles – while only a fraction was ever negotiated. You’re paying inflated prices without realising it.

Your tail spend is hiding recurring demand.
Repeat purchases get priced like one-offs because nobody spotted the pattern – until now.

You’re sitting on savings you haven’t spotted yet.
In one client case, 61% of transactions had a Spotmarket equivalent – unlocking a 20% savings rate, article by article, at scale.

The Unite approach


We make the price gap visible. Unite’s Single Creditor Solution – 1,000+ pre-vetted suppliers, millions of verified products – shows you exactly where framework prices diverge from real market prices.

We pinpoint where you’re overpaying. Our expert services team analyses your catalogue against live Spotmarket data – no guesswork, just data.

Direct sourcing on the platform is coming next. Move from insight to action, all in one place.
