Beyond Posting:

Latest Updates on Automating Evaluation, Audit & Insight in 2026 Procurement

Posting bids through OpenBids is just the beginning. 

As we move into 2026, procurement teams are navigating rising costs, tighter staffing, increased compliance scrutiny, and growing expectations for transparency. Many agencies are still managing evaluations, scoring, and approvals by manually using spreadsheets, email chains, and paper processes that create risk, slow timelines, and limit visibility. 

In this session, 

we’ll explore how leading agencies are moving beyond posting to create connected, compliant, and insight-driven sourcing processes. 

We’ll cover: 

  • Modern Solicitation Development: Centralize intake, collaboration, and approvals to reduce bottlenecks. 
  • Digital Evaluation & Bid Tabulation: Replace spreadsheets with structured, defensible scoring tools that create automatic audit trails. 
  • Supplier Reach & Competition: Expand visibility to over 800,000 additional suppliers to drive stronger response rates. 
  • AI-Powered Solicitation Summaries: Automatically generate clear, digestible bid summaries that make it easier for suppliers to respond. 

Plus, attendees will receive a complimentary bid tabulation example to see how automation can streamline scoring and documentation. 

If you’re still evaluating manually, this session will show you what’s possible next.
