AI is a commonly overused term that is as popular as ever. And while it may not live up to the hype of flying cars and robots taking over the world, AI (and BI--business intelligence) have potential to disrupt the procurement space, in a great way.

Michael Lamoureux, Sourcing Innovation, 1/30/2019
Sourcing Innovation editor, Michael Lamoureux, wants to remind procurement professionals that a platform is only as good as you make it.

Ensure your platform has sufficient DIY abilities for build-ons, as platforms rarely have everything needed for a successful S2P cycle. All in all, make sure your platform is worth the ticket price.
