About the Team
We have started to deploy Coupa P2P system early in 2021. This implementation continued in 2022 reaching our AZ sites in UK, US, Sweden, Canada, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Mexico and Japan. In current year, we aim to stabilize our Content Management and develop further in providing high quality service to our main stakeholders.
Having a strong electronic content (catalogues) will make the buying experience for the AZ users much simpler and more effective and at the same time it will maximize the utilization of preferred suppliers and improve contract compliance.
