MICHAEL VAN KEULEN ON KEY PARTNERS AT COUPA
Tonkean “ They support customers and drive higher adoption through the architecture of their platform . Where Tonkean is critical for us is on the upstream side of the procurement journey . They are important for us because it allows our customers to drive even higher adoption of the platform through their app on the Coupa App Marketplace .”
Amazon Business “ Amazon Business and Coupa simplify business buying and provide the tools to take proactive , end-to-end control of spend . Together , we help your employees find what they need by accessing intuitive , consumer-like shopping within Coupa through Open Buy with Amazon Business . We integrate the back-office benefits of Coupa into the Amazon shopping experience with punchout catalogues . We ’ re really excited about continue growing this partnership to new heights .”
NPI “ NPI gives us better visibility in our negotiations via their app in the Coupa App Marketplace . If I negotiate
with any software company internally at Coupa , these guys do hundreds of them with that supplier a year , so they can give me benchmarks , they can help me with my strategy and they can validate that whatever deal I ’ m about to bring to my stakeholder is competitive .”
Focal Point “ Focal Point provides our customers with an orchestration layer that is integrated into the platform . They support customers with driving greater adoption and simplify processes , which is critical to any digital transformation ”
CrossCountry Consulting “ CrossCountry Consulting is a longstanding trusted system integrator partner who has delivered over 700 successful Coupa deployments . We cannot scale and grow our company without partnerships like CrossCountry , who help clients successfully optimise their Source-to-Pay ( S2P ) transformation . I value their deep commitment to innovation , growth , and customer success , and look forward to continuing our partnership in the years ahead .”
