Procurement teams are increasingly being asked to support and advise on digital transformation initiatives within their organizations. With the growing recognition of procurement's contribution to enterprise growth and competitiveness, equipping procurement with the right technology platform can have a significant impact on the business. The CIO plays a critical role in helping procurement teams select the technology best suited to transform their operations, particularly in the face of disruptive digital technologies such as AI, IoT, and blockchain. To achieve successful digital transformation, CIOs must consider key elements such as end-to-end, unified solutions that provide seamless information, process, and workflows, easy integration, improved data visibility and integrity.
