Purchase Order Management:

The use of a purchase order (PO) is Ball Corporation's standard policy and required method of communicating our commitment to purchase materials and services from our suppliers.

Our PO requirements facilitate a streamlined payment process for our suppliers:
  • Our Suppliers are required to have a Ball purchase order prior to delivery of goods or services.
  • Purchas Orders must be acknowledged prior to invoicing. Suppliers can acknowledge a PO through the Coupa Supplier Portal (CSP) by opening the purchase order and checking the  'Acknowledged' box.
  • If a PO has incorrect information or a change to the PO needs to be made, contact the Ball requester or buyer through thte Coupa Supplier Portal (CSP) to ensure the PO is corrected prior to acknowledging.
  • Ball must approve any change from the original PO prior to delivering the goods or services.
