| Coupa Software | Legacy | Coupa Invoice | AP Automation | ERP | n/a | 2019 | 2019 |
In 2019 GEODIS implemented Coupa Invoice as part of an AP Automation initiative for IT procurement and accounts payable workflows. Coupa Invoice serves as the central invoice processing engine supporting invoice capture, PO and change order management, and supplier invoice validation within GEODIS IT purchasing operations.
The implementation configures core AP Automation capabilities including invoice processing and routing, PO matching and change order handling to accommodate upfund and downfund adjustments, and SOW monitoring for contractor invoicing. Configuration also aligns software asset management interactions with procurement processes to track licenses and forecast needs for IT procurement and desktop operations.
Coupa Invoice is integrated with ServiceNow to ensure transactional accuracy and workflow continuity between procurement request records and invoice settlement, and it feeds month-end accruals and reporting processes used by finance and accounts payable. Operational coverage centers on IT procurement and IT Desktop Operations in the United States, with coordination points across the central Procurement and Finance functions for vendor onboarding and capital request submissions.
Governance established around the Coupa Invoice deployment emphasizes process ownership within IT Purchasing, cross-functional working sessions to drive continuous improvement in the IT Service Management system, and controls for SOW and invoice reconciliation. Day to day procedures include research and resolution of material and accounting conflicts at department and vendor levels, consolidation of monthly IT accruals, and oversight of capital budget requests.
The implementation positions GEODIS Coupa Invoice AP Automation to support transactional invoice processing across IT and procurement, to maintain license and SOW alignment with financial controls, and to provide a governed workflow between procurement request systems and accounts payable processes.

| UKG | Legacy | UKG Pro HCM (ex UltiPro HCM) | Core HR | HCM | n/a | 2019 | 2019 |
In 2019, GEODIS deployed UKG Pro HCM (ex UltiPro HCM) to manage Core HR functions supporting Benefits, Payroll, and HR operations. UKG Pro HCM serves as the central HRIS for benefits administration and payroll-related reporting within the organization.
The implementation configures benefit billing workflows and HRIS reporting that are used to administer the benefit billing process. Staff run established reports in the UKG Pro HCM HRIS, compare vendor billing amounts to deduction totals produced by those reports, and compile bi-weekly payroll files for extra pay submissions. The solution also supports administration of the monthly recognition award program and maintaining procedural and process documentation.
Integrations include a transactional handoff into the Coupa expense system where billing information is entered for vendor expense processing. Operational coverage extends across the Benefits, Accounting, Payroll, and local HR teams, with processes in place to follow up on exceptions and resolve discrepancies through cross-functional collaboration.
Governance activities focus on documented reconciliation and exception workflows, coordination between Benefits and Accounting for issue resolution, and upkeep of process documentation to support ongoing operations. Routine tasks include running HRIS reports, entering billing details into Coupa, compiling payroll submission files, and maintaining award program administration.

| SAP | Legacy | SAP BusinessObjects | Analytics and BI | Analytics and BI | n/a | 2017 | 2017 |
In 2017 GEODIS deployed SAP BusinessObjects as its Analytics and BI platform to centralize enterprise reporting and BI operations. The rollout focused on establishing a governed Business Intelligence layer supporting reporting, metadata universes, and ETL orchestration under the Analytics and BI category.
Implementation work included design and modeling of a corporate data warehouse and the implementation of data flows using SAP Data Services, described in internal notes as SAP BODS. Administration and operational control were implemented through the SAP BOXI central management console, with explicit configuration and maintenance of universes using both UDT and IDT. Routine operational capabilities included job scheduling and monitoring, incident management, and maintenance of multiple BI applications.
The program operated distinct preproduction and production environments, with operational ownership covering environment direction, backlog supervision, and collaboration across data architecture, development, and analyst teams. A documented migration activity moved SAP Business Object from 4.1 to 4.2, coordinated with the data architect and implementation teams to update universes and ensure continuity of reporting semantics.
Governance and process changes centered on structured knowledge management within the BI team, formalized administration of SAP BODS and SAP BOXI, and oversight of the BI application lifecycle. SAP BusinessObjects supported GEODIS business intelligence and reporting functions across analytics, enabling closer alignment between data modeling, ETL, and report delivery under the Analytics and BI program.
