How is Green Cabbage Optimising Procurement?
Founded in 2017 and following a rebrand in 2019, Green Cabbage is a global leader in procurement and workforce market intelligence, helping organisations optimise spend across indirect technology, contingent workforce, marketing and travel and expense categories.
Through its proprietary OneWorkspace platform and executive relationships, Green Cabbage delivers measurable value, enabling companies to achieve 15-30% savings with a guaranteed minimum 5X ROI.

From supplier-side expertise to procurement intelligence
Founder & CEO, Eric Cunningham, brings more than 20 years of experience in enterprise software and technology sourcing. He established Green Cabbage to provide procurement teams with the real-time supplier intelligence they require to make confident, high-impact decisions.
Before founding Green Cabbage, Eric held leadership positions at leading technology and service providers, including Oracle, Salesforce and Microsoft, where he led pricing, packaging and deal strategy teams. The supplier-side experience provided him with rare insight into how commercial decisions are made and how buyers can gain a competitive advantage.
Today, Eric leads Green Cabbage with a mission to transform how companies approach supplier negotiations. His leadership combines deep procurement expertise with a passion for transparency, innovation and client success.

Powered by MIT
Green Cabbage's MIT is a deliverable that blends qualitative and quantitative analysis, providing real-time, supplier-specific pricing and terms tailored to your sourcing requirements. Whether it's a renewal, a new agreement or a large-scale event, an MIT gives you the leverage and clarity to negotiate smarter and faster.
The platform draws on over 1.72 billion data points from more than 16,800 suppliers, delivering an average of US$125,000 in savings with a typical turnaround time of 24-48 hours. This comprehensive approach spans multiple categories including contingent workforce, consulting services, managed services and specialised staffing solutions.
Green Cabbage offers four distinct MIT types to meet varying client needs. The Featherweight MIT provides post-deal pulse checks within 12-24 hours, offering deal ratings without detailed analysis.
The Lightweight MIT delivers quick pre-deal insights within 24 hours, focusing on micro-SKU-level pricing. For comprehensive support, the full MIT includes SKU-level pricing, commercial terms assessment and negotiation strategy within 48 hours. Finally, the Project MIT caters to early-stage scenarios with directional pricing estimates delivered within 3-5 days.
The MIT approach combines rapid turnaround times with micro-SKU level details, expert intelligence, contract analysis and market-aligned pricing to provide significant negotiation leverage through both quantitative and qualitative analysis.
A recent engagement with a global airline demonstrates the MIT's effectiveness. Before working with Green Cabbage, the airline faced challenges with limited market intelligence, poor visibility on pricing insights and low internal confidence during negotiations. Following Green Cabbage's intervention, the airline realised more than US$6m in savings, achieved a 38% SKU-level cost reduction and gained substantially improved negotiation leverage.
Commitment to security excellence
In 2025, Green Cabbage completed its SOC 2Ā® Type II certification, which showcased how it is dedicated to enterprise-grade security, data integrity and operational excellence.
Developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the SOC 2Ā® Type II certification evaluates a service organisation's information systems relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy. This certification from Sensiba LLP confirms that Green Cabbage's controls and processes meet the highest standards for protecting client data over an extended monitoring period with zero noted exceptions.
"Trust and security are non-negotiables in today's procurement environment," says Eric.
"Achieving SOC 2 Type II validates the confidence our clients already place in our organisation and reinforces our commitment to safeguarding their most sensitive business information."
Bennett Falck, Head of Development at Green Cabbage, adds: "From the beginning, security has been baked into every layer of our architecture.
"This certification is not just a checkbox; it's independent validation of the intentional design and discipline we've put into building a platform and a company that our clients can trust every day."
