Use Case

AI-Augmented Procurement for Data-Driven Purchasing Decisions

ABSTRACT
Generative AI supports Procurement functions in managing suppliers, documents and spending data, transforming fragmented information into accessible knowledge.

Where: Italy
Mission
Increasingly complex supply chains require Procurement functions to rapidly access reliable information, assess suppliers more accurately and reduce the time spent on operational activities. The goal is to improve efficiency, decision quality and process oversight capabilities, enabling teams to focus on higher-value strategic activities.
Solution

The solution integrates GenAI, automation and the enterprise knowledge base to support the entire Procurement lifecycle.

During supplier search and qualification, it automatically analyzes professional profiles, skills, experience and available documentation, helping identify and assess the most suitable partners more quickly.

For Supplier Intelligence activities, it provides natural language access to spending data, supplier information, previous evaluations, contracts and enterprise documentation. In operational procurement activities, it supports the creation and organization of the documentation required for Procurement processes, reducing the workload associated with repetitive tasks.

The solution supports purchasing activities by analyzing unstructured documentation and providing assessments, including potential anomalies and completed checkpoints, to support final decision-making.
