        abstract = {The cosmetics industry involves complex procurement activities and increasing volumes of supplier, product, and expenditure data. Traditional procurement systems often rely on spreadsheets and manual reporting, resulting in fragmented data, limited visibility, delayed reporting, and difficulties in controlling costs. Spend analysis helps organizations identify spending patterns, evaluate supplier performance, and identify cost-saving opportunities. This research develops a spend analysis model for cosmetic products using Anaplan, a cloud-based Connected Planning platform. The proposed model integrates procurement transactions, vendor information, and product categories to provide category-wise spend analysis, vendor comparison, spending trends, KPI dashboards, and automated communication. The model aims to improve procurement transparency, supplier management, cost optimization, and data-driven decision-making.},
