Contract Compliance Check

Spend drifting off contract. Flags the lines that miss the agreement.

Target KPI Off-contract spend
Executes in ≤ 24 hours
System of record Coupa · SAP MM
Trigger condition

Purchase lines against a contracted vendor fall outside the agreed price, volume tier or item scope beyond tolerance.

Write-back

Contract reference corrected on the purchase records in SAP MM; compliance exception logged in Coupa.

Every write is gated on an approver role you name. Nothing runs unattended.

Procedure
  1. Match every purchase line to its governing contract clause, flagging lines with no contract at all.
  2. Classify the miss: wrong price, wrong tier, out-of-scope item, or expired agreement nobody noticed.
  3. Quantify the cost and check whether a volume tier was earned but never applied, which is the most common finding.
  4. Route to the category manager with the correction, gated on approval before the vendor is contacted.
  5. Close when the lines are corrected and the compliance rate holds for a quarter.
Outcome metric

Off-contract spend as a share of category spend over a quarter, plus recovered value on unapplied tiers.

The case closes on this number, not on the action being taken. A playbook without a close condition is a dashboard.
