Join Ardent Partners and ORO Labs on October 29th (1:00 – 1:45 PM ET) for a discussion titled “The New Speed of Procurement: AI, Agility, and Orchestration.”
For CPOs, the goal is to build a procurement organization that can respond faster to new priorities, new risks, and new opportunities without sacrificing control. In 2026, leading teams are developing the organizational and technological capacity to adapt quickly, scale what works, and convert new ideas into measurable outcomes. If that is your goal, join us for this interactive webinar discussion.
On October 29, Ardent Partners, ORO Labs, and a special guest CPO will examine the emerging procurement speed advantage: the ability to move from an idea, requirement, or business need to execution and results faster than traditional operating models allow. The panel will also explore the role of orchestration in connecting people, processes, systems, and AI while maintaining the governance and control that enterprise procurement requires.
Drawing on Ardent Partners’ latest State of Procurement AI research, the discussion will explore where CPOs stand today, where technology investment is producing results, and why agility is becoming increasingly important as business conditions and technology capabilities continue to change.
Attendees will learn:
- Where technology investments are generating measurable results.
- Why speed and adaptability are becoming more important procurement capabilities.
- How orchestration can connect workflows, systems, data, and AI with appropriate governance.
- What faster-moving procurement teams are doing differently to accelerate execution and impact.
