Procurement Digital Transformation for a Saudi Champion

The brief

A Saudi state-owned industrial group — SAR 18B annual third-party spend across maintenance, capital projects, and indirect categories. Purchase-to-pay is manual and paper-driven, with a 23-day cycle time. Vision 2030 mandates 60% local content. The CFO has SAR 50M to spend on tooling, expects 3–5% realised savings inside 18 months, and is choosing between Coupa, SAP Ariba, and a custom build on the existing SAP S/4 estate. You are the lead.
