Challenges

Multiple platforms, including four requisitioning and two purchasing systems, made making informed decisions difficult.

Lack of integration of the platforms with financials, necessitated extra work and muddied visibility Good UX was a must.

Results

The new system allows all purchasing to be encased in Coupa Preferred, toward 100% catalog implementation.

Spend is now consolidated and under visible and informed control.

Purchasing now scales to take advantage of volume buying benefits.

"Coupa has transformed our processes throughout the company. We’d like to double the spend in Coupa."
