Coupa Throws Procurement Touchdown for Las Vegas Raiders
Coupa is partnering with NFL's Las Vegas Raiders to optimise the organisation's spend strategies, champion stronger supplier relationships and drive overall business growth.
The leading total spend management platform is set to transform and modernise the Raiders' technology infrastructure to support its continued growth, which has reached new heights following a move from Oakland to Vegas in 2020.
In the sporting world, Coupa is already partnered with the likes of San Francisco Giants and New York Yankees.
The tech powerhouse will connect and automate the Raiders' and Allegiant Stadium's entire source-to-pay lifecycle through its unified platform to manage total spend.
Streamlining operations with end-to-end solutions
The Raiders and Allegiant Stadium will benefit from improved procurement and finance team productivity, business performance and operational efficiency.
As the Raiders continue to grow and scale as an organisation, Coupa will provide full visibility and control for teams to manage spend with increased digitisation and automation to streamline end-to-end sourcing, buying, invoice processing, expenses and payments.
John Frank, Chief Customer Officer at Coupa, says: "The Raiders are counting on Coupa to quarterback their total spend management and multiply their margins with our platform and winning playbook to optimise spend strategies using our community data.
"We welcome them to the Coupa community of strategic customers and are certain this is the beginning of a winning partnership."
Tackling procurement challenges with all-pro solutions
LA Raiders are set to benefit from an easy-to-use guided buying experience that improves user adoption and drives cost savings through negotiated contracts with preferred suppliers.
From supplying team merchandise and fan gear, to finding the best player safety equipment, Coupa has the Raiders' procurement and finance teams covered like an All-Pro cornerback.
Michael Crome, Chief Financial Officer at the Las Vegas Raiders, adds: "Coupa empowers us to grow our organisation and serve our fanbase while maintaining a clear line of sight over our spend, risk management and strategic sourcing decisions.
"We're confident that Coupa is covering our blind side. With Coupa's insights, our organisation can make more profitable business decisions in a tumultuous business environment – it's a proven game changer for us and the entire sports franchise industry."
Michael will speak alongside other professional sports franchise executives at Coupa Inspire, which is taking place in Las Vegas on 12-15 May.
