Where agentic AI can be powerful is in helping businesses reach better procurement decisions faster. It can streamline supplier discovery, maintain visibility across options and reduce the burden of constant market monitoring.“ But the process, just like any other area of significant strategic importance, requires constant evaluation to ensure the approach is still relevant and ensures resilience against macroeconomic fluctuations,” says Michelle.
“ Agentic AI is a tool to make better and more informed decisions with leaner teams, but it isn’ t going to replace human judgement in nonnegotiable circumstances where they carry significant strategic, financial, reputational or relationship consequences.”
