Global Cash Visibility & Working Capital Transformation
Bodycote moved treasury operations in-house, using Coupa to consolidate ~200 bank accounts and automate payments, gaining real-time data for proactive liquidity and FX management.
Value as a service
Challenge
Cash data was fragmented across multiple banking portals.
Manual, file-based steps slowed payment and settlement workflows.
Lack of real-time visibility made global liquidity coordination difficult.
Admin tasks like statement retrieval consumed finance capacity.
