Coupa expands AI supply-chain tools, acquires Rossum as manufacturers seek cost cuts

Coupa announced new AI products and the acquisition of Rossum at its Inspire 2026 conference in Las Vegas, expanding its push into AI-driven procurement, invoicing and supply-chain optimization as logistics volatility raises pressure on manufacturers. CEO Leagh Turner unveiled Coupa Compose and Coupa Catalyst during a May 12, 2026, keynote. Coupa said its platform has processed more than $10 trillion in cumulative spend and delivered more than $300 billion in customer savings over two decades. The company said Rossum’s AI document-processing technology will be integrated across Coupa workflows. Manufacturers cited measurable savings from digital sourcing and network optimization. M. Dias Branco said optimization reduced cost-to-serve by 14% for cookies and 24% for pasta. Jabil said Coupa sourcing tools helped generate about $25 million in logistics savings and cost avoidance while cutting sourcing cycle times by about one month.
