Who should attend: All SCM & Procurement Management
The AI in Procurement Masterclass, From Compliance to Strategic Advantage, is a practical, example-driven training designed to help procurement teams modernise their workflows and prepare for full AI integration in 2026.
We know that the procurement ecosystem continues to face mounting pressures with longer drafting cycles, heavier compliance demands, slow evaluation processes, and data-heavy contract management.
This workshop addresses these challenges directly by demonstrating how AI can dramatically reduce manual workload while improving accuracy, fairness, and audit readiness.
Rather than focusing on technical concepts of AI, the masterclass uses real procurement scenarios to show how AI accelerates drafting, simplifies evaluation, strengthens compliance checks, supports decision-making, and improves reporting quality.
Participants will learn how AI can summarise bids, align specifications with criteria, detect bias, analyse pricing risks, monitor supplier performance, and flag early warning signs in contracts, all while keeping officials firmly in control through a human-in-the-loop model.
By the end of the session, attendees will understand where AI fits into every stage of the procurement cycle, how it enhances governance without increasing risk, and how to build POPIA-aligned, audit-friendly processes.
Most importantly, they leave with a clear roadmap to integrate AI into their procurement environment, enabling faster turnarounds, reduced administrative burden, and stronger compliance ahead of the 2026 implementation horizon.
