Case Study: Tupperware Brands achieves 15%+ cost savings and 40% productivity gains with SAP Ariba (Ariba Discovery)

Achieving More than 15% Savings and Increasing Productivity by 40%

Tupperware Brands, a global leader in kitchen, storage and personal-care products with a 2.9 million-strong independent sales force, needed faster ways to identify qualified suppliers for new initiatives. The sourcing team’s worldwide research and seller qualification process was slow and manual, and the company faced the challenge of transitioning global teams to new technologies and processes.

By adopting SAP Ariba Discovery (and Ariba Sourcing) Tupperware gained access to a network of more than 500,000 sellers, posted RFPs and received multiple qualified responses within days. The result: faster supplier connections, a significantly expanded seller base, more efficient onboarding of global teams, 40% higher sourcing productivity and more than 15% cost savings through improved negotiation.
