Generative AI is rapidly changing how procurement teams access information. From open-source large language models to nascent in-house AI tools, intelligence has never been more accessible. But access alone does not guarantee confident decisions.  

In this session, Prerna Dhawan (Chief Product Officer) and Valekumar Krishnan (Chief Content Officer) explored what decision-grade intelligence means in the generative AI era, and why validated data, context, and human judgment remain critical for procurement teams navigating risk and volatility. 

Designed for procurement leaders experimenting with AI and questioning traditional intelligence models, this webinar brought clarity on why decision-grade intelligence is needed for confident decision-making in procurement.

Date: Wednesday, 11th February 2026  

What we discussed:  

  • The difference between AI-generated responses and decision-grade intelligence  
  • Where validated, proprietary data still matters most in procurement decisions 
  • How procurement teams can combine AI with human expertise to focus on higher-value work 
  • What an “AI-fluent” intelligence approach looks like in practice
