Story
Aptiv did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed plan to produce to move. In Ireland, planners and plant leads already knew where supply and production planning went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
Supply Chain Design from Coupa is now in that path. Coupa is a spend management platform for procurement, invoicing, expenses, and supply chain design used by finance and procurement teams. The company treats it as production tooling for plan to produce, which is why planners and plant leads live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
Aptiv can show how supply and production planning is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run plan to produce on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
