Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have used Coupa for network optimization a while back, determining strategy related to where our facilities should be located, what facilities should support production for which markets, etc. I have recently used it for safety stock optimization and inventory strategy-related goals. The SSO models manage about $100M in inventory for the company I work for.

Pros

  • Network Optimization
  • Safety Stock Optimization
  • Transportation Optimization

Cons

  • Community user group
  • Free, accessible training
  • Simulation to solve the problem...not just to test the optimized solution against

Likelihood to Recommend

Coupa is well-suited for stable demand patterns. Time phased Safety Stock Optimization seems like it could use improvement. It is well-suited for making business decisions related to tradeoffs between inventory, lead time, etc.
