Case Study: Priority Ambulance achieves $750K in first-year savings with Coupa Software

Priority Ambulance Saves $750K in First Year With Help From Coupa

Priority Ambulance, a healthcare company operating 14 ambulance businesses across 21 states, needed better control over spend, supplier duplication, and purchasing visibility. With no oversight into buying patterns and limited spend management expertise among day-to-day buyers, the company turned to Coupa Software to help manage and optimize procurement.

Coupa Software implemented hosted catalogs and spend management best practices to compare supplier value, realign purchases to the best-value suppliers, and eliminate duplicative buying. As a result, Priority Ambulance consolidated to three suppliers for $4 million in disposable medical supply spend, reduced SKUs by 39%, and saved $750,000 in the first year, including $539,000 recouped in credits.
