Case Study: Sanofi achieves P2P consolidation and €10B under management with Coupa Software

Multinational Pharmaceutical Firm Refreshes P2P with Coupa

Sanofi, a multinational pharmaceutical firm with about 100,000 employees in 100 countries, struggled with fragmented procure-to-pay operations spread across 22 systems and 40 sub‑processes. The company needed global spend visibility, configurable compliance for diverse regulations, and a user‑friendly solution to reduce inefficiencies and improve control.

Sanofi implemented Coupa (Procurement, Contracts, Analytics) to consolidate P2P onto one platform, delivering global visibility, built‑in compliance, and high adoption. The rollout put €10 billion under management, achieved 100% PO‑backed spend, reached 60,000 live users with 95% satisfaction, and ensured compliance across 70+ countries.
