Creating the AI-enabled procurement function of the future - today

Where agents execute, orchestration governs and people lead

scheduleWATCH ON-DEMAND

There is no shortage of hype around AI agents in procurement, but leaders need proof of governed capabilities in live environments. ORO Labs' Chris Vessey and Sabih Rozales unpacked the possibilities in this webinar through a powerful framework: agents handling execution, orchestration ensuring governance, and people focusing on leadership.

The team also showcased a live demonstration of several agents, demonstrating how AI can independently identify, negotiate and capture value opportunities in real time.

Drawing on lessons learned from live implementations, we discussed how to:

Differentiate truly governed agents from the hype
Build governance-first AI with human oversight
Ensure auditability and policy compliance
