Stop scrolling the AI hype and start building a strategy.
Every procurement leader is feeling it: the pressure to "do AI" without a clear map of where to start. In this episode, Sam Jenks sits down with Marijn Overvest, founder of Procurement Tactics, to move past the anxiety and look at the actual reality of procurement in 2026.
Marijn breaks down why 2024/25 was the "year of experimentation" and why 2026 is officially the Year of the AI Agent. We move beyond ChatGPT prompts to discuss how autonomous agents will soon handle the "boring" administrative tasks, finally freeing up procurement pros to do what they do best: build relationships and drive strategic value.
In this episode, we cover:
The 4 Stages of AI Maturity: Where does your team actually sit?
The "Skills Gap" Myth: Why digital literacy is more important than buying new software.
Sustainability vs. Survival: How to handle ESG goals when margins are under fire.
Future-Proofing: Why empathy and "soft skills" are your ultimate shield against automation.
