ICYMI 🔊 #Procurement's biggest challenge often isn't strategy — it's execution. Clear goals mean little without ownership, accountability and a structured path to action. For #supplychains, results come from execution systems, not PowerPoint slides.

ICYMI ⚡ AI's biggest impact on #supplychains may be what it gives back: time. As automation handles routine tasks and #AI agents support complex workflows, #procurement teams can focus more on strategic decision-making, supplier relationships and risk.

ICYMI 🌎 The Strait of Hormuz disruptions are about more than oil. Rising fuel costs, longer routes and freight volatility are exposing how vulnerable efficiency-focused #supplychains can be — and resilience is quickly becoming a business necessity.

ICYMI 💡 #AI is now making #procurement decisions, not just recommending them. As autonomous systems place orders, switch suppliers and trigger payments, the real challenge for companies and #supplychains becomes governance, accountability and authority.

.@ISM’s Steve Miller: “(Most services-sector) industries reported that they were holding flat in #employment month over month. Respondents reporting new orders were higher than last month most frequently attributed this to seasonality.” bit.ly/4ejdbIG #ISMPMI #economy
