Challenge

Tendering was too complex for the outdated system, resulting in missed savings.

Complexity of their system led to heavily manual processes.

Lack of visibility meant decisions were made on "gut feelings" rather than facts.

Result

A single integrated system optimized direct and indirect sourcing scenarios.

Analytics drove further competition and savings.

Allocation of business now decided on facts, not on feelings.

System has lowered risk through increased visibility.

"Coupa Sourcing Optimization makes complex scenario analysis much quicker and more accurate."
