Geopolitical uncertainty, the evolution of talent engagement, and the rapid rise of artificial intelligence (AI) have compounded the challenges for those charged with sourcing and managing contingent labor.
Contingent workforce programs are being driven harder than ever to reduce costs and increase efficiency. In many cases, this includes the adoption of new AI-based technologies. Fearing that AI-powered rivals are gaining an advantage, businesses are racing to incorporate AI into their digital transformation programs.
Ardent Partners predicts that 76% of procurement organizations will use AI by the end of the year, making it the fastest-adopted technology in the field.
In this webinar, Andrew Bartolini and Christopher Dwyer of Ardent Partners, Jerrod McAdoo of Ivalua, and Brian Hoffmeyer of Beeline discuss the trends affecting businesses as they plan and execute their strategies in 2025.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- What are the top economic and political challenges businesses will encounter?
- How will these influence global supply chains, including the supply of talent?
- What are the year’s Procurement technology trends and predictions?
According to Ardent Partners, the war for talent continues to escalate, with a growing emphasis on skills-based hiring. While businesses emphasize the need to make data-based staffing decisions, economic volatility has forced them to focus once again on cost savings and the bottom line.
Companies are increasingly attracted to AI-powered solutions, and Ardent Partners predicts that more of these will feature agentic AI as well as generative AI-based solutions.
