Had a great time connecting with both new and old friends at Procurement Strategies & Innovation on Tuesday! Some amazing speakers across the day, including our very own Steve Middleton’s seminar on: "Artificial Unintelligence: Why AI Will Fail Without Smarter SRM." Biggest reflection? The hype around AI transformation in Procurement is everywhere & here to stay, but is your organisation really ready to adopt AI? From data issues to growing concerns around ethics, compliance, and security, there's still a lot to tackle before AI delivers real value. Perhaps this is why adoption of Gen-AI is low… This is exactly why at Kodiak Hub, we focus on building a solid foundation first. Centralising supplier data, streamlining risk monitoring, and enhancing performance management in one platform. Only with clean, organised supplier data can AI truly transform procurement. Interested in turning your supplier relationships into a competitive advantage? Let's chat about how to prepare your organization for the future of procurement! #ProcurementInnovation #SRM #AIReadiness

The hype around #AI transformation in #Procurement is everywhere – but is your organization really ready to adopt AI? Unfortunately, AI is only as intelligent as the data it’s given. And let's face it: Procurement has a lot of room for improvement with its Supplier Information Management.

But with smarter SRM and innovative Supplier Information Management solutions, Procurement can accelerate and optimize its AI implementation.
