Responding to a Coupa Sourcing Optimization (CSO) event

CSO events support more complex sourcing activities. They are used when multiple scenarios, options or constraints need to be considered as part of the sourcing process.

This section explains what these events involve and how to respond in Coupa.

A sourcing optimization event allows us to evaluate different sourcing scenarios at the same time.

These events may consider:

  • multiple pricing or volume options
  • different delivery or commercial scenarios
  • trade offs between cost, capacity and other factors.

The goal is to understand the best overall outcome, not just a single response.

Sourcing optimization events are more detailed than standard sourcing events.

You may be asked to:

  • respond to multiple scenarios
  • provide structured data rather than free text responses
  • submit pricing or capacity information in a specific format.

Because of this, it’s important to review the event carefully before you begin.

When responding to an optimization event:

  • review all scenarios provided in the event
  • read instructions and requirements for each scenario
  • enter data carefully and completely
  • save your progress as you works
  • submit your response before the deadline.

Take time to check your entries before submitting to avoid errors.

 

Use these videos and resources to help you prepare before responding. They explain the sourcing optimization process and guide you through the key concepts and steps.
