Procurement is evolving from a transactional function into a strategic, data-driven business partner. Organisations today face increasing pressure to control costs, manage supplier risks, ensure compliance, support sustainability goals, and respond quickly to market volatility. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming a key enabler in meeting these challenges.
AI technologies—particularly Machine Learning, Large Language Models (LLMs), and Generative AI—are transforming how procurement teams analyse spend, evaluate suppliers, manage contracts, forecast demand, and support negotiations. With modern AI tools, procurement professionals can now automate repetitive tasks, extract insights from large volumes of documents, and make more informed decisions.
This course provides a practical, business-focused introduction to AI for procurement professionals. Participants will learn AI fundamentals, understand how AI technologies interconnect, and gain hands-on experience with leading AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity, Grok, Claude, Manus, DeepSeek, Qwen, and NotebookLM. The emphasis is on real procurement use cases, responsible AI usage, and measurable productivity and performance improvements, without requiring programming skills.
