PROCUREMENT TECHNOLOGY
Transforming sustainable procurement, Schneider Electric’ s Resource Advisor + is a nextgeneration energy and sustainability intelligence platform powered by agentic AI workflows.
Utilising Sera, the company’ s lead AI agent, the ecosystem integrates proprietary knowledge from two decades of consulting expertise to turn complex emissions and energy data into actionable, risk-mitigated procurement strategies.
The innovation directly transforms the source-to-contract lifecycle by embedding human experience into automated workflows to accelerate supplier engagement and carbon optimisation.
At the core of its upstream value is the specialised supply chain product. It streamlines first-mile supplier onboarding and data collection, allowing procurement teams to manage
Scope 3 emissions reductions at scale during the sourcing phase.
“ Resource Advisor + introduces a completely new way for companies to manage their energy and sustainability performance,” says Steve Wilhite, Executive Vice President for SE Advisory Services’ global Energy & Sustainability Practice.
“ By automating complexity and turning data into action, [ it ] represents a fundamental shift in how we help our clients achieve meaningful, enterprise-wide outcomes.”
By unifying fragmented data into a single, collaborative command center, Schneider Electric enables organisations to move past static reporting.
Instead, procurement teams can confidently evaluate supplier risk and execute climate-conscious contracts that align energy spend with long-term corporate decarbonisation goals.
