Story
Consumer Discretionary work at Tesla spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Procurement and payables was splitting across regional habits. Procurement and AP asked for a shared way to run source to pay without freezing local judgment.
Sage (Sage X3) is what they standardized on. Sage provides accounting, ERP, and HR software used by small and midsize businesses to run finance and operations. Tesla uses it as the system of record for procurement and payables, with procurement and AP as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
