SUMMARY:From Insight to Action: The Agentic Supply Chain
DESCRIPTION:Supply chain execution is undergoing a fundamental shift. As complexity accelerates and disruptions become the norm\, reactive\, rule-based systems can no longer keep pace. \nIn this SupplyChainBrain webinar\, leaders from EPG and NVIDIA explore how agentic AI is transforming logistics from insight-driven visibility into autonomous\, intelligent execution. \nJoin EPG CEO Peter Bollinger\, EPG Americas’ President Jett Chitanand\, and NVIDIA’s Developer Relations Manager\, Wilfried Rakow\, as they examine how real-time AI infrastructure and next-generation execution platforms work together to observe events\, interpret context\, simulate outcomes\, and take action. \nLearn how the transition from reactive logistics to autonomous supply chains is unfolding\, and what it means for supply chain leaders planning the next era of performance and resilience. \nWhat you will take away:\n– Why reactive logistics systems are reaching their limits\n– How vision AI and real-time data create operational awareness\n– What agentic AI means for supply chain decision-making\n– Why autonomy requires both AI infrastructure and execution platforms\n– How leaders can begin the journey toward intelligent\, autonomous supply chains \nSpeakers:\nWilfried Rakow\, Developer Relations\, NVIDIA\nPeter Bollinger\, CEO\, EPG (Ehrhardt Partner Group)\nJett Chitanand\, President\, EPG Americas\, EPG (Ehrhardt Partner Group) \nModerator:\nHelen Atkinson\, Managing Editor and Host\, SupplyChainBrain

SUMMARY:WEBINAR – You Can’t Automate Chaos: Scaling Procurement with AI-Native Orchestration\, presented by OMNEA
DESCRIPTION:Procurement teams are often trapped in ‘intake chaos’ – chasing fragmented requests across Slack and email while struggling to maintain compliance and visibility. As organizations scale\, this manual ‘busywork’ prevents procurement from moving beyond a reactive administrative function to becoming a true strategic partner. \nIn this fireside chat\, James Rafferty\, Head of Procurement at Thumbtack\, joins us to share how he transformed their procurement process into a seamless\, guided experience. By moving away from legacy ‘AI-bolted-on’ tools toward an AI-native approach\, Thumbtack has streamlined how requests enter the business\, ensuring every spend and risk check is handled with precision from the start. \nThe conversation will explore how Omnea’s conversational intake and agentic AI act as a ‘strategic front door\,’ steering employees toward preferred suppliers while automating the complex orchestration of legal\, risk\, and finance approvals. We’ll discuss the shift from managing manual workflows to delivering measurable outcomes – including drastically reduced cycle times and enterprise-wide value realization. \nAttendees will gain practical insights on: \nThe ‘Front Door’ Strategy: Why intelligent intake is the foundation of procurement value – capturing the full picture in the fewest steps to eliminate time-consuming follow-ups.\nAI-Native vs. AI-Bolted On: Understanding the difference between basic automation and agentic AI that handles the heavy lifting of supplier assessments and stakeholder summaries.\nDriving 100% Adoption: How Thumbtack created a process so intuitive that employees actually love using it\, ensuring shadow IT is tackled and compliance is built-in by design.\nMeasurable Outcomes at Scale: What a successful transformation looks like in practice\, from accelerating contract reviews to achieving a single source of truth for every supplier.\nThe Future of AI SRM: Lessons learned from Thumbtack’s journey in moving from fragmented systems to a unified\, AI-powered supplier relationship management platform. \nSpeakers:\nJames Rafferty\, Thumbtack\nBen Freeman\, Omnea
