Apptio + Coupa

Shine a light on ungoverned technology spend

Schedule a Demo
Logo coupa apptio sm1 - Coupa Partner Detail - Apptio

Cloud and SaaS delivery models have democratized technology acquisition. Business units are no longer tethered to IT and can spend directly with external technology providers. This freedom enables speed and agility, but it can also decrease efficiency and increase business risk. Finance and IT organizations need oversight on technology spend, not just in IT, but among all business units.

Solutions and benefits

Together, Coupa BSM and Apptio TBM enable you to govern technology spend across the entire organization.

Accurately classify

technology spend from inception, instead of after the fact.

Surface

ungoverned technology spend across all cost centers and departments.

Eliminate

redundancies and waste to ensure every dollar spent aligns to business value.

Gain

a more detailed view of IT spend compared to the General Ledger.

Automate

budgeting, forecasting, and variance reporting for technology spend.

How it works

Apptio integrates through CoupaLink to tie its industry-standard IT cost model (ATUM®) into the Coupa BSM Platform and provide a framework to accurately categorize and assign technology spend. When new purchase orders are entered into Coupa, users categorize them against Apptio’s IT costing taxonomy. Later, when Apptio ingests the General Ledger entries covering the PO spend, the categorization is used to automatically route the spend through the IT cost model.

Apptio's TBM Taxonomy

Govern the ungoverned

Augment Apptio cost data from GL with procurement data from Coupa, model all tech spend according to TBM best practices, gain a detailed view of traditional IT TCO (under the CIO), and surface ungoverned tech spend from non-IT budgets (e.g. Sales and Marketing).

Coupa procurement details enable visibility in Apptio of IT spend

Plan proactively

Use procurement data from Coupa to forecast spend in Apptio to update spend forecasts by individual IT budget, receive automated forecast updates so budget owners see trending against current spend limits, and leverage self-service analytics to understand and explain forecasted spend against plan

Apptio shows planned technology expenses.
