SUPPLY CHAIN STRATEGY
How can organisations validate AI-driven supplier suggestions against diversity, sustainability and ethical benchmarks as we look to the future? Looking ahead, there’ s enormous potential to leverage AI in procurement, especially around validating supplier suggestions against critical benchmarks such as diversity, sustainability and ethics. Organisations can adopt frameworks that integrate AI-driven analytics with transparent governance processes – ensuring each AI recommendation aligns with clearly-defined ESG goals. For example, embedding diversity metrics into the AI evaluation criteria, leveraging sustainability scorecards integrated through real-time data feeds or using ethical AI audits to proactively identify biases.
While we’ ve begun to unlock AI’ s capabilities in supplier network remapping and risk assessment, the next major step is establishing robust validation mechanisms to ensure our rapid pace of innovation also consistently advances our values and strategic commitments.
