PODCAST: The exploding ecosystem of digital solutions for procurement

Digital transformation is moving procurement into a period of significant change. It’s driven, mostly by an exploding ecosystem of digital solutions. 

With access to new options such – as artificial intelligence – comes new expectations, specifically the need to provide a consumer-like buying experience for all categories. 

As was found at PASA’s IT Day last week, the “forward look to the horizon” suggests the technology procurement buys is changing. What was a one-size-fits-all model, is becoming one where care is taken to architect a tech stack that can meet the needs of the business.

In today’s Art of Procurement Podcast, host Philip Ideson welcomes two guests: Dr. Ferhat Eryurt, a Partner at apsolut Group, a SAP & SAP Ariba partner for on-premise, cloud & hybrid procurement solutions, and Lukas Wawrla, Co-founder and Managing Director at Archlet, an advanced data analytics solution to assist negotiations.

The trio discuss:

• where procurement is on the digitization journey today
• how procurement should manage the many options presented by combining platforms and best-of-breed solutions
• If procurement is giving enough weight to the stakeholder experience when building out a technology ecosystem.
