Krystal Biotech Extends Its Coupa Ecosystem Upstream with Contract Lifecycle Management
Krystal Biotech rated its DataMap implementation 5 out of 5 — the story of extending a Coupa ecosystem upstream into Contract Lifecycle Management.
The Challenge
Krystal Biotech had a working Coupa procurement foundation, but the front end of the spend lifecycle — contracts — still lived outside it. Agreements were negotiated and stored apart from the system that governed purchasing, which meant contract terms, renewal dates, and negotiated pricing were disconnected from the requisitions and POs that depended on them.
The Approach
DataMap extended Krystal's Coupa ecosystem upstream by implementing Contract Lifecycle Management, connecting authored contracts directly to downstream procurement. Negotiated terms now flow into buying, renewals are tracked before they lapse, and compliance is enforced at the point of purchase rather than discovered in an audit.
The Outcome
Krystal rated the implementation a 5 out of 5. Contracting and procurement now operate as one connected process on a single platform — the front of the lifecycle finally speaking to the rest of it.
