Supply Chains, Reimagined

Where AI and People Work Together

AI is moving into procurement, planning, sourcing, logistics, forecasting, and risk management.

But this isn't simply a story about automation.

The real opportunity is in bringing together AI-powered intelligence with professional judgement to make better decisions, respond faster to disruption, and build supply chains that perform in a more unpredictable world.

Would you challenge it?
Or would you know exactly when to do both?

Supply Chains, Reimagined: Where AI and People Work Together

An engaging, practical webinar for professionals across procurement, supply chain, logistics, and operations who want to understand what AI really means for the way the profession works, and where human expertise becomes even more valuable.

This isn't another conversation about robots taking over the workplace.

It's about better decisions, better resilience, and better-equipped professionals.

From Purchase Orders to Strategic Decisions

AI is changing more than routine administration

It is beginning to influence how organisations:

1
Forecast demand
2
Identify supply risks
3
Evaluate suppliers
4
Optimise inventory
5
Monitor logistics
6
Analyse procurement data
7
Model scenarios
8
Respond to disruption
9
Make faster decisions

But technology does not remove the need for expertise.

It changes where expertise creates value.

The professionals who stand out will increasingly be those who can combine:

Procurement expertise + Data + AI + Commercial judgement
What Will You Take Away?

Practical insight you can apply to your work and career

See Where AI Is Actually Making a Difference

Move beyond AI buzzwords and explore the practical ways technology is influencing procurement, supply chain, and logistics.

Understand the Human Advantage

Explore the decisions that still need context, experience, negotiation, commercial understanding, and professional judgement.

Think Differently About Disruption

See how AI-enabled insights can help organisations anticipate problems, evaluate scenarios, and respond before a disruption becomes a crisis.

Look at Your Role Differently

Understand how AI is changing the capabilities expected from today's supply chain, and procurement professionals.

Challenge Your Own Thinking

This won't be a sit-back-and-listen session. Expect scenarios, discussion, live decision-making and opportunities, to test your thinking against AI, and industry perspectives.

Beyond the Buzzword

AI in Procurement & Supply

The real question isn't:

“Can AI do this?”

It is:

“Should AI do this — and where should the professional take over?”

That distinction matters.

CIPS has highlighted the growing importance of AI in procurement and supply, including its impact on procurement tasks, individual productivity, and the future capabilities of the profession.

This webinar brings that conversation to life through practical supply chain situations and professional decision-making.
