Partnership extends eGPO into SaaS, cloud and IT spend – a fast-growing category where mid-market portfolio companies routinely overpay and quietly leak EBITDA.
New York and London, 9 June 2026 – Mulberri, the spend optimization technology company behind eGPO, today announced a strategic supplier partnership with SaaSrooms, a leading AI-powered technology spend management platform. Under the agreement, SaaSrooms joins the eGPO supplier network as the delivery partner for SaaS, cloud and IT spend – covering software subscriptions, cloud infrastructure and licensing across eGPO portfolio company customers in the United States and Europe.
The partnership directly addresses one of the fastest-growing and least-governed sources of EBITDA leakage in mid-market private equity portfolios. Software subscriptions proliferate across departments, licenses go unused, renewals auto-renew at inflated rates, and buying happens without procurement oversight – even though technology can represent 5–12% of operating cost in software-intensive and services sectors.
SaaSrooms will deliver AI-driven spend visibility, license optimization, contract analytics and vendor negotiation to PE firms and their portfolio companies sourced through the eGPO platform, supported by its suite of specialist AI agents. Portfolio companies receive a single point of accountability, and access to SaaSrooms’ technology and negotiation capability without standing up an internal SaaS management function.
The numbers behind the partnership
Technology spend consistently emerges as one of the highest-yield sourcing categories, with delivered savings of up to 30% against incumbent arrangements. For a portfolio company spending $3M per year on SaaS, IT and cloud, a 20% saving translates to $600K of recurring EBITDA – and, at an 8× exit multiple, around $4.8M of additional enterprise value created without operational change, capital expenditure or organizational disruption.
Technology spend is where the modern mid-market business quietly hemorrhages money – redundant licenses, renewals nobody challenges, and vendors nobody benchmarks to understand the true market price. SaaSrooms brings the AI, the data and the negotiation track record to turn this on its head. Embedding SaaSrooms inside eGPO means we can leverage SaaS spend across portfolios with every company benefiting from enterprise-level technology procurement deals.

Mid-market companies consistently overpay on software because technology buying is fragmented across teams and rarely governed centrally. Licenses sit idle, contracts auto-renew at list price, and the data needed to negotiate is scattered across inboxes and spreadsheets. Moreover, PE firms are missing out leveraging SaaS spend across their entire portfolios.
Partnering with Mulberri puts our AI platform and savings methodology directly in front of private equity-backed companies – a sector where SaaSrooms has had tremendous success with multiple proof-points.
