At this year’s Zycus Horizon 2021 conference, joining me in a 20-minute Fireside Chat will be fellow procurement pundit and co-author Kelly Barner to discuss how cognitive procurement is a potential game-changer in the process before automation challenge.

Discussion Points:

In a famous Tweet about Uber the company was recognized for building solutions for the way the world should work versus improving the way it does work. When it comes to procurement, how applicable is this axiom?

Research and experience indicate that great technology will not fix poor processes and weak governance models. Do you agree with this assessment? If yes (or no), explain why?

What role do new, disruptive technologies associated with intelligent or cognitive procurement play in addressing the “process before automation” dilemma?

Why should P2P providers build solutions for the way the world should work versus improving the way it does work?

Outcome:

By attending this session, you will gain insight into how emerging cognitive procurement solutions can be leveraged to address the unrealized potential of the digital transformation of procurement and modern global supply chain.
