Exploring Where Agentic AI Can Create Value in Procurement
AI agents are gaining traction in procurement due to their capacity to automate routine processes, deliver real-time insights and enhance decision-making.
By processing large datasets, they streamline supplier selection, strengthen risk management and drive cost efficiency. Their adaptability to market changes also supports more resilient and agile supply chains.
With continuous learning and improvement, AI agents elevate procurement from a transactional role to a strategic enabler of innovation, sustainability and long-term value creation for businesses.
The use of AI agents in procurement will be discussed in detail at Procurement & Supply Chain LIVE London 2025 during an exclusive workshop, delivered in association with Zip.

'Cutting through agentic AI hype'
Zip recently revealed plans to equip procurement teams with more than 50 dedicated AI agents, powered by its agentic AI suite for procurement.
These agents are designed to save practitioners millions of hours by removing manual, repetitive tasks such as tariff assessments, contract reviews and compliance checks.
With this launch, Zip introduced agentic procurement orchestration – a new category that automates the end-to-end purchasing process, giving large organisations a competitive advantage in an uncertain business climate.
"Zip is cutting through the agentic AI hype with AI agents that actually work," said Rujul Zaparde, Co-Founder and CEO of Zip.
"Not vague chatbots. Not generic assistants. Real, specialised AI agents that do one job and do it perfectly.
"Zip's approach to agentic AI is going to make global companies more secure, save them millions of hours of laborious work, and generate billions in hard-dollar savings."
Creating procurement value
Procurement teams are under increasing pressure to act quickly, minimise risk and prove their value, all while managing ever more complex supplier ecosystems.
While generic AI tools often fall short, procurement-focused AI agents – tailored to the daily challenges teams face – are equipped to deliver real impact.
Join Zip's Jason Moore, Head of Enterprise Transformation, and Michael Rooney, Director of Enterprise Advisory (EMEA), on Day 1 of PSC LIVE London 2025, as they explore common challenges in procurement and showcase high-impact use cases where AI agents provide solutions.
Attendees can learn the key principles of agent design and gain practical insights into where these tools can create the most value within your workflows.
Designing the Future of Procurement: AI Agent Workshop will take place from 1.30pm to 2.15pm on 23 September in Room 1.
