11:40 AM Panel: Benefit Or Hinderance: Balancing The Push For Faster Cycle Times With Effective Procurement Execution

Speed has become the default expectation across business today, with senior leadership pushing for faster cycle times in every procurement process. While this acceleration can drive efficiency and responsiveness, it also raises an important question: is faster always better for procurement? Join this panel discussion to understand where speed can create real value and where it creates problems in contracting, negotiation, and risk management.  

Key takeaways:  
  • Evaluating where speed creates value in procurement processes versus where it introduces risk 
  • Balancing stakeholder expectations for faster cycle times with doing things the right way 
  • Enabling efficiency without compromising the procurement process  
  • Assessing where AI and digital tools are accelerating or complicating the issue
