Value as a service
Challenge
Needed spend visibility to maximize buying power.
Buyers lacked control to push spend into negotiated contracts.
Acquisition of Cabela’s necessitated visibility to consolidate indirect spend.
Results
Analysis provided classification needed to meet aggressive procurement goals.
Rolling out the full BSM is enabling procurement control for buyers and managers.
Visibility led to meeting acquisition synergy goals immediately.
“We exceeded synergy targets following our acquisition using Coupa to understand and classify 100% of combined spend.”
— David Elford, Director of Non-Merchandise Procurement
