Case Study: Tata Steel achieves better procurement control and visibility with Coupa Category Strategy

Tata Steel gains real-time visibility into spend with Coupa's category strategy platform

Tata Steel, one of Europe's largest steel producers, faced a challenge in its procurement operations. The company managed its category strategies through inconsistent manual templates, which led to low visibility into active strategies and total spend. This fragmented approach disconnected business strategy from daily activities and created governance and version control issues. To address this, Tata Steel turned to Coupa Software and implemented its Coupa Category Strategy solution.

By adopting Coupa's platform, Tata Steel replaced its manual processes with a scalable digital solution. This provided a standardized, guided approach to strategy development and delivered real-time visibility into strategy status and spend coverage. The solution fostered stronger collaboration, enabling faster and more confident decisions backed by clean data. Coupa Software's platform was instrumental in transforming the company's procurement into a structured and aligned function.
