Trustworthy partnerships with innovative suppliers
At Speira, procurement goes beyond savings. While safety, compliance, and quality remain essential, sustainable and innovative solutions are becoming increasingly important to drive the development of our aluminum rolling and recycling business.
We source a wide range of technical solutions, engineering services, innovative digital tools, and much more.
We share our vision with innovative and dedicated suppliers who support us with their ideas on our path to high-quality, low-carbon products and an outstanding CO2 footprint.
Reliable long-term relationships
Suppliers are critical to our business success.
We focus on creating value for both parties, based on open communication, flexible and transparent processes, as well as the joint development of innovations.
We place high value on reliable supplier management through structured supplier onboarding, contract management, and continuous evaluation of supplier performance.
Speira expects its suppliers to adhere to the principles set out in the Supplier Code of Conduct and actively promote these principles in their own supply chain.

What is the Coupa Supplier Portal (CSP)?
The Coupa Supplier Portal (CSP) is a free online portal that allows suppliers to collaborate with Speira, receive and confirm purchase orders, and participate in sourcing events.

Yes. The CSP is free for suppliers. There are no subscription or transaction fees.
Do I need a Coupa account to work with Speira?

You will receive an invitation email from either Coupa or Speira. Follow the link in the email to create your account. Alternatively, you can follow the "Onboarding" link in the "Training and Support" section. In this case, once you register in Coupa, you must send us an invitation to connect via the CSP.
I already have a CSP account with another customer. Can I use the same one?
Yes. You can use one CSP account to manage multiple customers.
Who in my organisation should have access?
We recommend having at least one main administrator and one backup administrator.
What if I did not receive an invitation?
For assistance, please contact your Speira business contact or our Procurement Support team at coupa-supplier-helpdesk@speira.com.
What is sourcing in Coupa?

Do I need a Coupa Suppleir Portal (CSP) account to participate in sourcing?

What can I do in a sourcing event?

Are bids visible to other suppliers?

- or both
To ensure that you do not miss any requests from us, please add this email address to your safe sender list.

Can I review PO changes?
Yes. You will receive an email notification for any amendments, and if you have a CSP account, the changes will also be visible there.
Can I create order confirmations or shipping notices?
If you are in the Coupa Supplier Portal (CSP), you can confirm quantities and add comments.
What if there is an issue with a PO?
You can contact the PO requestor, your operational contact at Speira or raise a query in CSP.
Can I submit an invoice to Speira via the Coupa Supplier Portal?
No, you should not send us invoices via Coupa, nor should you follow a Coupa link provided in an email or in the Coupa Supplier Portal. Invoicing and payment are not part of Coupa, so they will continue to be processed as they are today. Hence, please continue to send your invoices to the usual email addresses: accge.invoices for Germany and accno.invoices for Norway. Please remember to write the PO number on your invoice.
Can I view the payment terms in Coupa?
Yes, but only if you are logged in to the Coupa Supplier Portal.
Is it possible to view whether an invoice has been approved or paid in Coupa?
No, you will not be able to see the status of your invoice in Coupa because Speira does not use Coupa for invoicing and payment.
What is PunchOut?
PunchOut is a technical integration between Speira and a supplier’s e-commerce system. It allows Speira to access the supplier’s online catalog directly from Coupa. Users "punch out" from Coupa to the supplier's website, select products, and then return to Coupa with their shopping cart for approval and ordering.
Which suppliers are considered PunchOut suppliers?
Suppliers that provide: (i) Hosted catalogues via their own webshop (ii) Real-time pricing and availability (iii) Integrated ordering via cXML
How does the PunchOut process work?

Yes. Even for PunchOut orders, you will always receive a formal PO from Speira.
Do I need a CSP account as a PunchOut supplier?
No, a CSP account is not required.

Yes. One of the main benefits of PunchOut is real-time pricing.
