Coupa’s Business Spend Management Benchmark Report is unique because it’s the industry’s only collection of benchmarks based on actual business spend transactions, anonymized and aggregated across a community of thousands of organizations and trillions of dollars in spend.

This year’s Benchmark Report uses community data to guide you through comprehensive Business Spend Management (BSM) transformation and help you:
