Scale AI Supports its Global Growth with Coupa
Technology moves fast, and Scale AI helps businesses keep up. However, Scale AI’s internal procurement tools weren’t agile enough to keep pace with business growth. That’s when Coupa’s AI-driven platform made all the difference.
Company Overview
Scale AI helps enterprises and government agencies build the infrastructure necessary to harness artificial intelligence.
Headquarters
San Francisco, CA
Employees
500-1,000
Website
scale.com/Value as a service
Challenge
The use of separate systems for each geographical location and lack of reporting and compliance control made it difficult for Scale AI to grow the business as needed.
With no PO process in place, the AP team struggled to validate spending before payments and pay bills in a timely manner.
A high amount of non-compliant expenses prevented the company from tracking spending against the budget, and employees waited up to two months for reimbursement.
Results
Scale AI seamlessly added three new entities and continues to scale internationally after moving from a geographic-specific to a centralized procurement process on one AI-driven platform.
Closing is faster and more accurate with all of Scale AI’s financial data flowing into one centralized location — giving the company the power to pull reports instantly, budget effectively, and forecast precisely.
Automated controls and easy PO workflows help prevent non-compliant spending and empower Scale AI to process POs and payments 50% faster.
"Life now, post-Coupa, is amazing. You can ask my head of procurement, you can ask anyone on my team — it's just night and day."
— Josh Waldron, Scale AI VP of Finance and Accounting
