Positions Coupa as the sophisticated leader in procurement digital transformation with holistic platform approach, enhanced by market-leading third-party risk capabilities
FOSTER CITY, Calif., Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Coupa, the leading AI platform for total spend management, has been positioned as a leader in the Spend Matters Fall 2025 SolutionMap for Intake & Orchestration. This recognition affirms Coupa’s commitment to providing a sophisticated and holistic AI-native platform that delivers a seamless, user-friendly experience while maintaining the robust backend capabilities that procurement professionals depend on.
This SolutionMap rigorously assessed vendors against over 500 detailed functional and capability requirements across 16 source-to-pay categories. Coupa’s placement highlights its exceptional strength across the entire Intake & Orchestration landscape, including Core Intake and Orchestration, E-Procurement, and Supplier Management. Critically, Coupa was identified as the leader in the Risk Management map (Supplier Risk), demonstrating its ability to manage supplier risk through identification, prioritization, and mitigation tools. These enhanced third-party risk capabilities are a competitive edge that significantly strengthens Coupa’s Intake leadership, ensuring proper oversight and due diligence.
“This is truly a major achievement for Coupa. Just this past May, we launched our Smart Intake & Orchestration solution to address the critical need for an intuitive, compliant experience for businesses of all sizes,” said Salvatore Lombardo, Coupa Chief Product and Technology Officer. “Achieving leadership status in the Spend Matters Fall 2025 SolutionMap after four months in the market is an extraordinary testament to our product innovation and team. Coupa’s holistic approach and AI-native platform advantage have allowed us to rapidly deliver scalable solutions that accelerate time-to-value and ensure compliance from the very first step of the spend process.”
“Coupa’s intake and orchestration solution is bolstered by its surrounding modules and underlying platform, as many of its intake and orchestration customers also use other Coupa solutions. For example, Coupa scores above the benchmark in risk management, including supplier risk monitoring, which is critical to intake and orchestration because of the importance of choosing optimal suppliers during purchasing (intake) requests,” said Nikhil Gaur, Director, Strategic Projects & Research Analyst at Spend Matters.
