Keynote: AI Transformation in Procurement
Chris Sawchuk, Principal and Global Procurement Advisory
Practice Leader, The Hackett Group
 |
Today, there is significant momentum and more importantly pressure from many stakeholders to understand and capitalize on the potential of AI in our enterprises and procurement plays a significant role. The advantage created by digital technologies is not new, but the emergence of Generative AI has created elevated optimism of its potential to fill current procurement productivity gaps while at the same time generating unease with its ability to change work as we know it today.
During this presentation, Chris Sawchuk, Global Procurement Advisory Practice Leader at The Hackett Group, will not only discuss various dimensions of Generative AI value, but also the critical enablers required to achieve that value as well as targeting best return use cases and most importantly, some guidance to get started.
