“The key to unlocking exponential impact is co-innovation. When businesses do things together, they do things better,” said Raja Hammoud, Coupa executive vice president of products. “At Coupa, we’re co-innovating with our community to not only build a platform that is trusted to solve the challenges of today but to help businesses fundamentally change to scale transformations and growth.”
Coupa debuted the new platform innovations at Inspire, the annual BSM community conference. Highlights and key benefits include:
Control Costs with Greater Visibility
Each dollar a business spends needs to work harder than ever. This requires comprehensive visibility powered by intelligent, prescriptive data to inform decision-making.
- The CFO Dashboard makes it even easier for finance leaders to control costs by showing in-flight spend transactions and trends, and by prescribing an array of actions to improve cash flow and drive savings.
- Supply Chain Prescriptions help users prioritize which supply chain scenarios to design to realize savings, improve sustainability, and ensure business continuity through the power of AI.
Maximize Productivity with Increased Transparency
Businesses are looking to improve agility and productivity. When they’re more productive, they’re more profitable.
- Purchase Order Collaboration improves transparency between buyers and suppliers when placing new or changing current orders, no matter how large or complex. Orders and inventory are managed more effectively, ensuring supply continuity.
- Parallel Approvals help businesses shorten cycle times, improve user experience, and reduce delays when buying critical items and services.
Elevate Purpose with Sustainable BSM
The importance for businesses to do well is matched by efforts to do good. Making a difference is as valuable as making a dollar.
- The Scope 3 Travel Emissions Dashboard measures carbon emissions for business travel. Businesses can better track progress on sustainability goals, and benchmark against leaders in Coupa’s community.
- Supplier Diversity Data now extends through even more of the Coupa platform to help businesses progress on their supplier diversity goals.
