Methodology. Tank Orders are excluded from all metrics. Always-BRANCH or workflow-driven order types and Consumables Orders are excluded from the reorder-rate metric. Leftovers Cleanup orders are excluded from the leftover-rate metric. Dollar caveat: 960 POs (8.4%) have no Purchase Order Total entered yet, with missing-data rising from 7% in February to 11% in May. May spend numbers are therefore understated. Internal types (Leftovers Cleanup, Move Materials) have no supplier $ by design. The "reorder spend" and "leftover spend" figures sum dollars on POs that match the criteria — they're not damages or losses, just exposure.

10Key findings
What the numbers say
Leftover spend ($3,309,962) is roughly 2× reorder spend ($1,513,686). Leftover-logged POs touch 31% of in-scope supplied dollars; reorder POs touch 15%. The leftover problem is bigger in pure dollar terms than the reorder problem.
Siding is the single largest dollar problem on both axes. $2,880,048 in total spend (27% of company), $449,200 of reorders (58% rate), and $1,414,671 of cleanup-logged material (24% rate). Even a few percentage points of improvement here would dwarf any other fix.
Initial Orders sit second on both lists. $1,926,465 spend, $243,598 on reorders, $725,754 on cleanups. Siding + Initial together are roughly 45% of all spend.
Vinyl and Brick are the "small count, big dollars" cases you asked about. Vinyl: only 139 POs but $335,526 ($2,431 per PO average) and a 63% reorder rate. Brick: 88 POs, $137,110 ($1,632 avg), 73% reorder. Stucco fits the pattern too at 92 POs and 76% reorder rate, but average PO size is smaller ($441). High-rate small-count types are tractable.
And the reverse: Consumables Orders are the high-count, low-dollar case. 2,162 POs but only $506,146 total ($234 average). Their 4.7% leftover rate translates to just $33,980 of cleanup exposure — small enough to deprioritize despite the volume.
Orem accounts for 66% of total spend and 81% of leftover spend. $2,666,012 of cleanup-logged material in Orem alone. Ogden and St. George combined are $643,950. Whatever the Orem field practice is, it's expensive.
Edge's leftover spend ($1,006,854) exceeds DR Horton's. Even though DR Horton has more total POs (2,602 vs 2,489), Edge's higher average PO size flips the ranking when you weight by dollars. Edge alone accounts for roughly 30% of all leftover-logged spend.
Top three items by leftover-PO dollar value: J-Channel ($96,775), 4 Mil Plastic Rolls ($48,628), Touch-Up Kit ($64,594). These are the dollar-weighted versions of the count-weighted top list — note how the ranking shifts when you account for value.
The "both failure modes" items now have dollar tags. Among items reordered AND left over at elevated rates, the dollar exposure is sharply concentrated. Worth using the section above to prioritize which estimation rules to fix first.
Visionary and Lennar are still the discipline benchmarks. Visionary's $74,685 of leftover spend across 759 POs (4.1% rate) — less than 12% of Edge's leftover dollars on a comparable order count. Whatever they do in the field, it translates to real savings.
May data is incomplete. Through the 26th only, and dollar-coverage is ~89% (vs ~93% for February). The visible May reorder spike and leftover dip are partly real (less late-period activity, less time to log cleanups) and partly an artifact of data still being entered. Don't read either as a permanent shift yet.
