Vendor lock-in is just one symptom of a larger challenge: procurement teams operating reactively rather than strategically. As businesses evolve at a rapid pace—especially with AI-driven advancements—procurement must shift from tactical contract management to a proactive, business-aligned function.
In this webinar, Ashish Oberai, Director of Procurement & Operations at BGH Capital, and Jordan Tang, Director of Procurement at Vertice, will explore the common causes of vendor lock in and how procurement leaders can move beyond transactional decision-making and align their strategies with overall business objectives. We’ll discuss how procurement can become a value driver by improving contract flexibility, increasing tech stack visibility, and ensuring that every vendor decision supports long-term growth and agility.
