As public sector procurement enters 2026, agencies are moving beyond traditional process improvement and shifting toward a new operating model: procurement intelligence. This modern approach emphasizes visibility, insight, and strategic clarity, helping procurement teams make faster, smarter decisions in an environment where resources are constrained, supplier markets are shifting, and expectations for transparency continue to rise.
Drawing on real-world trends captured in the State of Public Procurement report, including the increasing strain of rising costs, shrinking purchasing power, and supplier barriers, this session introduces a fresh framework for what procurement excellence looks like in 2026.
Participants will learn:
- How procurement intelligence reframes the role of procurement
- Where today’s procurement data is underutilized
- How automation and embedded guidance free staff capacity
- What AI actually enables in 2026
Join us to explore an intelligence-driven approach to procurement and learn how your team can elevate its strategic impact in 2026 and beyond.
