Challenge

Lengthy and complex RFPs took months to execute, limiting the procurement team to just one or two events per year.

Difficulty balancing cost and resilience in sourcing decisions resulted in inconsistent material availability.

The lack of flexible bidding in sourcing events prevented robust supplier competition.

Results

Automated event design enables faster time to market and to achieve value.

An AI scenario tool empowers the team to balance costs, lead times, and other factors when making decisions.

Item selection allows suppliers to choose which items they want to bid on, and a quick feedback tool promotes creative offers.

"AAR Corp gets to market in days instead of weeks by automating large portions of event design with Coupa's pre-built templates and native, AI-based Smart Import."
