The problem
And what isn't controlled costs money. Here is what an unmanaged category costs on average.

What is Spend control?
Naboo becomes your single supplier for events, and the Control Tower gives procurement and finance one view of every event.
Naboo contracts and pays every supplier: one supplier in your ERP, one invoice per event.
Your event policy and approval thresholds apply to every request, from the first brief.
Spend by entity, country and event type, live in the Control Tower.
Every saving calculated line by line, from your quotes and your contract.
The solution
The Control Tower puts every request, rule and payment in one place. That control is what turns into savings.

5/5
“With Naboo, Veolia unified its event operations across all regions, enabling centralised reporting, supplier rationalisation and policy alignment at a global scale.”
5/5
“The fragmentation of MICE spend across departments makes it exceptionally difficult to get a consolidated, centralised view of this spend. Given its growing importance, with Naboo, the need to control and optimise this spend has never been more crucial.”
Our services
One partner for every event and every expense.
An event control tower is the single system where an enterprise sees every request, sourcing round, approval, booking, payment and KPI for its Meetings & Events category. It replaces inboxes, spreadsheets and disconnected tools with one dataset that finance, procurement and organisers all share.
Every event triggers a structured RFP to matched vendors, so proposals arrive comparable and the platform selects the best price for the same scope. On top of that, framework rates and loyalty programs are enforced in the booking flow. The 25% is the 2025 average saving between the first and the final quote, measured across our clients under contract.
Yes. Thresholds, category rules, delegations, exception paths and preferred-supplier logic live inside the Control Tower and drive approval workflows automatically. Requests inside policy just move; requests outside route to the right approver with the right context.
Very little. Your teams keep choosing their venues and suppliers, they simply book through Naboo. Naboo handles contracting, payment and invoicing.
The Control Tower complements ERPs, T&E and procurement suites. It industrializes the Meetings & Events category specifically, the one those systems cover the least, and feeds them clean, consolidated data (one supplier of record, one invoice per event).
Yes: one contract, one PO and one consolidated invoice in your ERP's format. No new supplier account to create.
Lodged cards, virtual cards issued per booking, and bank transfers. Whichever method suits the vendor, finance still receives one consolidated invoice per event with full traceability.
Naboo covers 44 countries, with local teams and offices in Paris, Hamburg, Barcelona, New York and Montreal.
