Procurement Embraces AI Despite Readiness Gap
ProcureAbility and ProcureCon's 2026 CPO report finds nearly 100% of chief procurement officers using AI but only 11% consider their teams fully ready. It identifies top barriers—data privacy/compliance (67%), poor data quality/integration (54%), and fears of AI replacing humans (51%)—and stresses the need for governance, operating-model redesign, and talent upskilling. The findings signal procurement's shift toward supplier collaboration and strategic roles requiring human-AI oversight.
