The Highest-Impact ROI in Procurement Today

Upskilling procurement teams in AI delivers one of the fastest and most scalable returns in business, with efficiency gains of up to 30%. By automating manual processes and optimizing workflows, AI enables procurement to focus on strategic value creation.

This is not just training. It is a competitive advantage that amplifies every procurement objective.

Safe. Responsible. Confident.

AI adoption without guardrails is a risk. With 66% of procurement teams already using AI, ensuring adoption is grounded in safety, ethics, and responsible usage is critical.

We help procurement teams build not just AI skills, but the judgment to use them wisely. This includes clear guidelines on appropriate use cases, ethical boundaries, bias mitigation, data security, and privacy risks.

A New Ticket to the Game for Procurement

Redefine procurement’s role and impact as the driving force behind the most transformative shift in business today.

By successfully transforming the procurement function and operating model, you create a scalable blueprint for AI adoption. It builds AI fluency across functions, enabling every team to work smarter, faster, and more innovatively.

What is the duration of the boot camp?

The boot camp is flexible to fit your procurement team’s schedule. Some teams complete the program in one month with structured weekly goals, while others prefer a 3 to 6-month learning journey for a more gradual pace.

Program Breakdown:

AI Boot Camp for Procurement Teams:

  • 6 hours of core (self-paced) learning content
  • 3 hours of (optional) live sessions
  • 1-hour (optional) monthly expert Q&A

Need help choosing the right pace? Discuss your team’s goals and timeline with one of our Procurement Learning Specialists in a free discovery call.

Is there a fixed schedule?

Your dedicated Procurement Learning Consultant will work with you during onboarding to:

  • Agree on a tailored timeline
  • Lock in dates for the kick-off, live sessions, and graduation/demo day
  • Define progress checkpoints to keep learners on track

Before each live session, participants should complete a set portion of the self-paced modules, ensuring productive, focused discussions.

This structured yet flexible approach keeps teams aligned while accommodating procurement professionals’ busy schedules.

What is the difference between an open and a closed boot camp?

  • A closed boot camp is dedicated to your procurement team, and access is restricted to the participants you enroll. This means that you, together with your assigned Procurement Learning Consultant, determine the ideal pace and schedule for sessions.
  • An open boot camp (only available for the Procurement Leadership track) unites professionals from different organizations in one collaborative group. Open boot camps typically feature between 5 and 10 procurement leaders per cohort.

Is there a live learning component?

Yes!

Both the boot camp for Procurement Teams and Procurement Leadership include up to 3 live sessions, led by one of our Procurement Tactics expert instructors.

Additionally, we host a monthly expert Q&A webinar on AI applications in procurement. All boot camp participants can join these sessions throughout their platform access period. This is your opportunity to get specific procurement questions answered and discover innovative approaches from professionals across different organizations.

What type of support can we expect?

During the pre-enrollment process, our procurement specialists will guide your decision-making and address all your questions. You can reach them by email or schedule a quick consultation call whenever needed.

Once enrolled, you’ll be assigned a dedicated Procurement Learning Consultant who will:

  • Serve as your single point of contact throughout the program

  • Coordinate all logistics including kickoff, scheduling, and live sessions

  • Onboard your procurement team and handle any program-related needs

  • Work closely with you to maximize the boot camp’s impact on your team’s procurement capabilities
