Recommended Procurement Webinars August 10-14: Contract Analytics and Competing in the Age of AI
It would seem that we are going to have a summer slowdown after all. There weren’t enough events to pick from last week, so I skipped my recommendations post, and there are only a few for this week but they are worthwhile. On the bright side, I already know there will be event recommendations for next week as well.
Don’t forget to save your spot in a live webinar I am presenting with ProPurchaser President Rod Sherkin for Supply Chain Now on August 19th: Post COVID-19 Supply Chains: What is Needed to Adapt.
If you are planning your webinar schedule beyond this week, I recommend ‘A Model for Creating a Data-Driven Culture’ from Harvard Business Review on August 19th.
BTW: If you haven’t already, sign up for our mailing list to be sure you get my weekly recommendations in your inbox each Monday.

If procurement has had an ‘unsung hero’ emerge in our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is probably our contract management platforms. Knowing who was accountable for what, and if there was any recourse should delivery/services be interrupted for any reason. Of course, that assumes your organizations has a contract management platform in place, preferably one that has sufficient analytics capabilities to support quick, effective decision making. In this webinar, Toby Yu, Managing Director of KPMG, Sally Guyer, CEO of IACCM, and Claude Marais, President and Co-founder of SirionLabs, will share how AI-powered contract analytics can enable better supplier/customer management, risk mitigation, and value realization from commercial relationships.
