Agility and deep partnership
In order to keep a competitive edge in this type of a challenging environment, we need to be agile and develop our solutions constantly to meet our customers’ advanced technical solution needs. Procurement leaders are already looking into solutions that utilize AI to leverage big data for streamlining processes and improving decision-making. This is shaping our priorities and for the following few years ahead they are quite clear: How these emerging technologies can make procurement more intelligent.
