Case Study: Lear Corporation streamlines BSM processes and automates over $1.5B with Coupa Software

Lear manages $1.5B in spend with Coupa

Lear Corporation, a major global supplier of automotive seating and electrical systems, faced challenges due to its rapid growth. The company needed a scalable system to streamline and integrate its business spend management (BSM) processes across multiple regions and languages. With a lack of visibility from its many disparate ERP systems, Lear's procurement was plagued by duplication and waste. To address this, they turned to Coupa Software.

By implementing Coupa's platform, Lear consolidated and standardized its BSM processes across 10 ERP systems and 257 locations. The solution completely eliminated manual procurement and requisition approval processes. As a result, Coupa helped Lear automate over $1.5 billion in spend, achieving greater visibility and transparency. Spend transparency climbed from zero to over half a billion dollars, driving efficiency and sustainability.
