Procurement professionals continue to grapple with challenges stemming from economic uncertainty, shifting workforce dynamics, rising material costs, supply disruptions, and generative AI. Outdated systems and inadequate data management add to these challenges. Companies must take an innovative, agile, and balanced approach to short-term proactivity and long-term planning.
