Agents with agency: Building an AI workforce procurement can trust
AI agents don’t just assist procurement work anymore. They perform it. From redlining contracts against your playbooks to negotiating tail spend and coordinating requests end-to-end, your autonomous AI workforce is already here. But AI agents that act on your behalf are only an asset if they’re governed by the same permissions, policies, and audit trail as your people. This session unpacks both halves of that equation: what real AI automation looks like in practice and what it takes to safely scale with the governance & controls that high-stakes procurement workflows require.
