global scale. By moving to a digital, intelligent operating
model that integrated data, digital technologies and
procurement talent, the company was able to better focus
on customer needs and enhance its ability to respond at the
right time with efficient manufacturing, at scale.

Automation makes it possible for CPOs to build a very
specialized human and machine workforce.
CPOs who expand automation beyond simple,
transactional tasks will see its true value.
For example, intelligent agents can perform research at
the category level, scanning contracts and other

together in digestible reports for humans.

A leading financial institution faced increasing cost pressure, growing
uncertainty, and the need for strict compliance with a challenging
regulatory environment. An explosion in digital banking capabilities
created new risks, making accounts payable a target for would-be
fraudsters.
The financial institution needed to move away from manual processes
to an intelligent procurement operating model that blends human
expertise with machine efficiency and uses automation and applied
intelligence to streamline repeatable processes. As a result, the
company has:

03 Know how to leapfrog maturity levels
After spinning off from a chemicals giant, an entrepreneurial
chemical company needed to transform an underperforming
inherited procurement function. The procurement team plotted
a path to world class procurement which was founded on
customer-centricity, simpler processes and a clearer focus on
what the business users really needed.
By moving to an intelligent procurement operating model that
integrates data, technologies, talent, and analytics, the company
increased the level of data accuracy and on-time payment, while
boosting the proportion of touchless electronic invoices.
Working with the rest of the business, procurement enabled
simpler, faster and smarter buying experiences and provided
more accurate Total Cost of Ownership analytics. The result?
Procurement can better support business needs and business
