Coupa Software has bought Llamasoft, an 18-year-old US-based company that helps large companies manage their supply chain. The deal was pegged at USD 1.5 billion.

This deal represents the fourth acquisition in 2020 for Coupa. Llamasoft released its latest tool, an AI-driven platform for managing supply chains.
