Coupa segregation of duties optimization

Project overview and objectives

A multibillion-dollar real estate company came to us after deploying Coupa—while the foundational set up was helpful, their unique business requirements and organizational design required custom roles and permissions across the technology. With distinctive permissions for each user, the business struggled to segment and track employee access.

They needed a clear segregation of duties control, making sure no singular user had access to all functions throughout the S2P process.

What we did

We stepped in to:

  • Review Coupa’s data set of roles and permissions, running it through our proprietary engine to evaluate users with conflicting access
  • Reassign roles where control issues existed
  • Close gaps by re-designing the custom roles within Coupa and establishing a model to scale with the business

​Impact

Now, the organization boasts:

  • Eliminated segregation of duty controls risks across the S2P process
  • A governance and role structure that scales with the business, reducing risks of segregation of duty conflicts in the future
