Be Inspired Rewind exactly 7 months and we were hosting our inaugural Procurement & Supply Chain LIVE event against a positive backdrop of life returning to some kind of normal thanks to the world emerging from the pandemic.

Unfortunately, it seems Black Swan events are like red London buses – you wait years for one to come along and then you get three at once.

Little wonder that the theme of this year’s event is ‘The Risk & Resilience Conference’ and over the course of two days we will hear from leading procurement and supply chain executives, plus influential thinkers from outside of our sphere, on how they have adapted to these ongoing challenges.

I guarantee you will hear inspirational stories from our keynote speakers today, and on our panel discussions, that highlight the incredible work they have been doing and continue to do.

Risk is constantly evolving, and resilience needs to keep pace.

VISUALISING YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN See Threats Before They Become Real

VISUALISING RISK

Interos is leading a revolution to reinvent and recharge the world of global commerce and trade. Its breakthrough SaaS platform leverages the power of artificial intelligence and the world’s largest database of supplier relationships to provide unprecedented visibility into global supply chains, down to the nth tier.

By utilising AI, Interos helps reduce months of backward-looking manual spreadsheets that are still too often used to track supplier relationships. While it once was normal to check in with suppliers once a year, organisations now are looking for more enhanced tools to map, monitor and model supply chain relationships continuously and in real time.

Interos creates instant visualisations with continuous mapping, monitoring and modelling tools. It ingests and analyses 4

tens of thousands of public and proprietary sources to pre-emptively identify and eliminate risks before they occur.

The company’s platform monitors for both physical and digital supply chain issues and assesses supply chain risk factors across six critical areas– finance, operations, regulatory, geopolitical, ESG, and cyber.

MAKING THE SUB-TIER VISIBLE

Interos has eliminated last-mile issues by using the same profiling criteria for all 345mn entities on its platform and the billions of inter-relationships among those entities.

Never has the need for greater visibility been such an imperative. Today, supply chain disruptions cost large companies, on average, US $184M annually and among 83% of those affected report material reputational damage.

Demand for Interos’ breakthrough solution

is soaring (300%+ growth in the past two years) and comes at a time when billions of consumers around the world are feeling the effects of a severely strained global supply chain firsthand.

We need intelligent tools to build agility and resilience into supply chains to achieve trust and transparency, and to prevent the

next crisis. Interos has cracked the code for protecting the supply chains of the world’s largest companies and governments with its first-in-class, AI-powered, multi-factor, multitier, third-party risk management platform.

TACKLING THE RESILIENT AND SUSTAINABLE SUPPLY CHAIN IMPERATIVE With organisations striving to build resilient and sustainable supply chains after a seemingly endless stream of black swan events, many turn to SAP for their knowledge and expertise.

J

ohn McNiff is Vice President, Global Center of Excellence focusing on Sustainable Supply Chains and Operations at SAP. He believes these topics are more challenging and in-demand than ever.

“Now is the time to become sustainable,” he says. “There is a need to adapt the processes, systems and methods to become more resilient in a time of digitalisation.

“Historically supply chains were optimised for cost and customer service, without considering carbon footprint or circularity of products. It is encouraging to see that today there is an increasing focus around sustainability.”

McNiff says ultimately organisations recognise that, in an increasingly networked and digitalised environment, visibility and collaboration are key. There are solutions and capabilities that can help – tools like AI, 12

April 2022

Blockchain and IoT become vital enablers for an autonomous supply chain. The challenge is understanding where and how to adopt.

“Right now there's a drive towards the cloud, we can deploy faster, we can set up more agile environments and landscapes, enabling companies to be more responsive. However, interoperability enabled by a consistent business technology platform through the supply chain process remains vital.”

John McNiff, Vice President, Global Center of Excellence, Supply Chain

SAP

Bringing Visibility and Agility to Supply Chains

SAP is rightly proud of the solutions that it has brought to the market for a number of years in the supply chain arena.

The strategy is to deliver best-of-breed components that are modular and cloudbased, an example being SAP Integrated Business Planning for Supply Chain, a solution adopted by over 1,000 companies globally.

“Also, it's super important that it's not just about having one big, integrated stack of products,” he says. “It's about bringing the right capabilities to the right users.”

Looking ahead, McNiff believes there will be continued disruption to the supply chain and fresh challenges, such as inflationary pressure, but access to quality data can help mitigate these risks and make the organisation more resilient.

“These disruptions will continue and so resilience becomes an imperative and an

operating model. If your information flow is slower than your physical product, you've got a problem. And for me, that's one thing that I think we are trying to help address,” says McNiff.

“We need to make sure that the information gets to the right people in a timely fashion so they can make accurate decisions and deliver against dynamic business outcomes.”

UST Diamond Editorial International retail group focused on fast fashion adopts supply chain digitization

The retail group recognized the need to evolve its supply chain to keep pace with the rapidly changing preferences and demands of the contemporary shopper. The retail group soon realized that it was jeopardizing customer loyalty and retention by being unable to react to its customers' needs quickly enough.

THE CHALLENGE Lack of visibility and coordination among partners.

SOLUTION UST Omni™ provided clear visibility into the group's global end-to-end supply chain operations by connecting all trading partners on a single network and removing the manual processes inhibiting the retailer's ability to speed up its supply chain.

RESULTS Following the implementation of UST Omni™, the company was able to demonstrate some significant improvements to key operational measures:

UST 30% Diamond Editorial

Since the company's team could collaborate in real-time on one digitized platform with product vendors, agents, and logistics providers, it could to make more insightful decisions on where and how it bought and moved its products to meet its customers' expectations.

PROFIT FROM THE SOURCE: TRANSFORMING YOUR BUSINESS BY PUTTING SUPPLIERS AT THE CORE

Pre-order the book =

Wolfgang Schnellbächer is a Managing Director & Partner as well as European Leader of Procurement Practice at Boston Consulting Group (BCG). He is an expert in procurement, transformation, digital procurement, supply chain management, and production.

W

olfgang is co-author of the upcoming book, ‘Profit from the Source’, being published by Harvard Business Review Press, which is a paradigm-shifting guide on how companies can grasp the strategic procurement opportunities offered by digital transformation to maximise value—well beyond savings—both from their suppliers and procurement function.

WHAT’S THE BOOK’S TAKE-HOME MESSAGE?

That the CEOs of old did not leverage procurement wisely. Procurement is more plugged into suppliers than any other part of a business, and if you optimise what your suppliers deliver in times of uncertainty and risk then you can have a very strong advantage over the competition.

If you give procurement the mandate and 24

April 2022

resources for running a dedicated risk team you can leapfrog the competition. This is true for the areas of risk, sustainability, innovation and savings. Procurement is a secret power CEOs did not use enough.

WHO’S THE BOOK FOR?

It's a book for the C-suite, and anybody who's interested in the larger business context. Procurement will be very important in our more complex, more interconnected world, and will help businesses get a leap on the competition.

HOW CAN FIRMS BEST PROTECT THEMSELVES AGAINST RISK?

It starts by having the right people. Many procurement functions don't have a dedicated risk team, which you need if you want a concrete understanding not only of

BCG

Profit from the Source: Putting Suppliers at Your Core

risk but what the crucial data points are in order to monitor and assess the risks we face.

HOW IMPORTANT IS PROCUREMENT TO RISK MITIGATION? It’s vital. Everything procurement does needs to be aligned cross-functionally, if we are to understand which risks need most attention. Most risk sits outside of the company, in the supply chain, which means the best place to have a risk function is in procurement.

YOU SAY CPOS NEED ‘EXTREME OWNERSHIP’ OF SUPPLIER RELATIONS. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

Similarly in procurement. You have to define for suppliers where you want them to go and define the measures in order to get them there. You must lead your team of suppliers to success.

EY COLLABORATIONS:

BANKING ON DIVERSITY How EY is helping to create a culture that values diversity both inside and outside thier doors

EY

' is one of the world’s leading professional services firms and like JP Morgan has a long commitment to increasing diversity in its suppliers, and helping clients do the same.

Theresa Harrison, EY’s Environmental Social Governance Services Leader, says the first foundation for EY’s strategy comes from an overall commitment to diversity, equality, and inclusiveness (DEI) within its overall organisation and culture. This is then followed by the leadership within its supply chain services.

DIVERSE SUPPLY CHAINS

Making sure EY suppliers have aligned goals within their own supply chains is also imperative. To those ends, EY created its own evaluation criteria that examine RFPs, overall ongoing assessments, its vendor management scope, and how organisations can team together to really make a difference and an impact from an ESG perspective.

Harrison notes, “We’re giving it high weighting in all of our specific RFPs, as well as our clients and those who we are actually developing from a client perspective on what their strategy should be, how should they 28

April 2022

EY

EY Collaborations: Banking on Diversity

evaluate their supply chain and what things should they look for in setting goals through our climate change and sustainable services practice.”

CATERING TO CLIENT DEMAND

ESG has become a mandatory exercise across the industry, but it’s complicated and confusing – and making sure the right outcomes prevail is essential, says Michael Giarrusso, whose team works with EY clients to develop their third-party risk management framework, processes, methodologies. and technology enablement.

He explains that helping clients learn how to break down barriers in terms of differing methodologies, is often the answer. “We’ve started to consult with our clients on helping to break down those barriers. It’s something that motivates a lot of our people to work with our clients.”

SUPPLY CHAIN SERVICES GOALS

EY considers diversity as part of its DNA as an organisation. Harrison concludes, “Our Supply Chain Services goals are tied to our performance and participation within supplier diversity. It is really important for us to build this diverse ecosystem, not only for EY, but also from a client-serving perspective.”

CHANGING THE ART OF NEGOTIATION INTO A SCIENCE NEGOTIATIONS ARE BY NATURE FLUID. HOW CAN YOU REPLICATE THIS USING AI?

Only about 20% of negotiations with a companies’ strategic suppliers are like this.

The rest of negotiations are quite one-sided because 80% of vendors are non-strategic.

And at the moment, procurement professionals don't have enough time to deal with them.

AI can negotiate contract terms that are important to both the company and the supplier. Also, machines can reach that optimal state quicker than humans, and with higher accuracy - turning the traditionally time-consuming and complex contract negotiating process into a faster, easier and better experience for all involved parties.

Our autonomous negotiation platform brings that human touch to these negotiations. The system reaches out to suppliers and asks on behalf of the company how it can help them grow, and what benefits 30

April 2022

it can bring them. A big enterprise cannot possibly give such attention to this process.

With Pactum, enterprises can do more while also unlocking millions of dollars of new business value. The machine augments procurement teams and makes them more powerful.

CAN AI NEGOTIATE ON LEGAL TERMS? Pactum can negotiate anything humans can, the only difference is scale. We cannot negotiate one-off deals, but rather things that are negotiated hundreds of times over.

That creates a certain level of standardisation and repeatability. This enables us to even negotiate legal terms.

WHAT LED ONLY YOU AND AMAZON TO USE AI TECHNOLOGY IN THIS WAY? HOW SO? I was once a commercial lead for a climate corporation and my job there was to negotiate. During these negotiations I saw

PACTUM

Pactum: Autonomous Negotiations

all of the cognitive biases and cultural differences involved in the human negotiation interactions and the amount of value that was being left on the table.

This is how I came to co-found Pactum - to solve the fundamental problems of negotiations with AI, while also being able to scale across an entire enterprise.

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOUR TECH BEING IN FIVE YEARS’ TIME?

Our catchphrase is: ‘Strategy for humans and implementation for machines.’ Machine learning focuses on the abstract level, where a person must explain strategy to a machine.

The machine then learns how to do what is being asked.

This is just the beginning of the journey for autonomous negotiations. The technology can be deployed in other areas in the future,

such as employment contracts, licensing, or rental agreements. It also yields the potential to help people reach agreements on major challenges, especially where global cooperation is required.

“Scoutbee’s objective is to provide data insights and solutions that enable better data, for better decisions, for a better world,” CEO and co-founder, Gregor Stühler.

Stühler and his co-founders were inspired to develop the scoutbee platform to provide a revolutionary approach to B2B sourcing by connecting buyers and 34

suppliers. During times of disruption, scoutbee has helped make supply chains more resilient.

“The last few years have shown how unpredictable the world has become – floods, pandemics, trade wars, and most recently the war in Ukraine,” says Stühler.

“The number of supply chain disruptions keeps increasing and this is a challenge for procurement professionals. By nature, disruptions are unexpected. Having insights into your supply portfolio at all times, as well as assessing the external supplier market fast, is key to business success."

“We can future-proof supply chains by moving procurement from reactive to proactive. The challenge for organisations is not merely to mitigate risk, but to become more agile and to increase resilience by having alternatives at hand.

We are also speeding up the supplier discovery process and making it less work-intensive.”

SCOUTBEE

Moving Procurement from Reactive to Proactive

Procurement is now paramount for ensuring business continuity and also delivers long term, sustainable, innovative growth.

Speed is of the essence and scoutbee allows procurement teams to react faster – and better – to challenges, providing actionable supply insights at high speed.

“Our powerful supplier discovery can identify unknown suppliers 75% faster than any manual process, including steps like identifying and onboarding new suppliers,” says Stühler.

“Unilever, one of our biggest customers, used the powerful supplier discovery to identify alternative manufacturers during the onset of COVID-19. In the USA alone, we discovered 190 new manufacturers in a matter of weeks. As Unilever CPO Dave Ingram put it, Unilever would never have been able to achieve that without scoutbee.

In its 2021 annual report, Unilever stated that partnering with Scoutbee has given the company the ability to streamline and strengthen its search for partners, resulting in a more resilient network.”

PLATINUM SPONSOR

UNLEASHING PROCUREMENT POSSIBILITIES WITH THE POWER OF DYNAMIC DATA Stephany Lapierre is CEO & Founder at TealBook, a supplier-data solution that drives supplier diversity and enables supplier performance. Using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), TealBook gathers, predicts and refines supplier data to build comprehensive supplier intelligence.

HOW DOES TEALBOOK WORK?

TealBook is an ML-native platform.

Most software and tools collect information through workflow, often in procurement, and ask suppliers to put information into a portal. Our technology actually uses ML to find millions of data sources, so that we can identify information about suppliers that is relevant to our customers. This happens at a speed and at a scale that humans can’t possibly produce.

An example might be if we want to know what organisations qualify as a B2B company. We’d use ML to find every B2B company in the world, and from that we can identify trends, and discover what's relevant between those organisations, so that we can provide insight that's valuable to our customers.

HOW HAS THE PANDEMIC CHANGED THE NEED FOR DATA?

With all the disruption of the pandemic, every procurement organisation in the world began looking for data. The traditional approach to collecting information through software or third parties was not delivering the speed or scalability required, because things were changing so rapidly.

So data became one of the most important ways to power decisions and systems, and enable procurement to deliver on their strategic objectives.

WHY IS SUPPLIER VISIBILITY SO IMPORTANT?

Most procurement organisations have very little information on suppliers, or what they do have could be outdated. If you don’t have a unified view of your entire supplier

TEALBOOK

TealBook: Shining a Light on Supplier Data

base, you can’t leverage it to achieve ESG objectives, or look at redesigning your supplier base in a way that can mitigate risk or enable innovation.

Tealbook offers a consolidated, dynamic view of your entire supplier base, so you can optimise this huge asset, which might represent hundreds of millions of dollars in value.

GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF TEALBOOK PROVIDING SUPPLY CHAIN AGILITY

During the pandemic the UK government was buying PPE, and they came to us because they needed to access manufacturers who were ISO certified, as it was really important that they identify manufacturers that had a certain level of quality. Within 72 hours, they had access to 60,000 PPE manufacturers, by country, by revenue, and ISO certified.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR TEALBOOK?

We believe there are opportunities to massively scale and automate ESG, which is quite difficult. These are data points that are quite difficult to access across a large number of suppliers. We are able to use our technology to automate the collection, the enrichment and the distribution of such data.
