英文【GEP】采购正在引领技术海啸（并改变你的工作方式）

GEP 2025 PROCUREMENT & SUPPLY CHAIN TECH TRENDS REPORT2Procurement is right in the eye of a tech storm.The economic currents have shifted, and familiar navigation tools are no longer enough. Traditional models are under pressure — from faster decision cycles, growing complexities of global trade driven by tariffs, and rising expectations for intelligence and integration. This isn’t routine turbulence or a rogue trend wave; it’s a structural reset that is reshaping how procurement operates, delivers value and stays aligned with the business.Technologies like agentic AI aren’t just incremental upgrades; they represent a generational leap — systems that can learn, decide and act with minimal oversight. And yet, for all their promise, these advancements come with complexity. The road ahead is rich with opportunity but riddled with pitfalls. Successfully navigating this terrain requires more than enthusiasm. It demands fluency.Procurement and supply chain professionals can no longer afford to leave deep tech understanding to CIOs and IT teams. These disruptions reach directly into the heart of their roles, reshaping how teams function, how decisions get made and what leadership looks like in the years ahead.This report offers a lens into a quiet revolution happening in procurement, driven by a shift from reactive systems to intelligent platforms that analyze, decide and execute in real time.It traces the emergence of agentic AI, autonomous procurement and unified source-to-pay (S2P) ecosystems not as isolated breakthroughs, but as parts of a larger shift in how organizations move, decide and create value. What makes these changes matter isn’t just the technology, but what those technologies unlock: speed with control, precision at scale and strategy that’s no longer slowed by process.For those steering through the digital hype toward real transformation, this report is more than a compass. It’s a beacon for staying on course, built to help leaders navigate shifting conditions with clarity, confidence and control.GEP 2025 PROCUREMENT & SUPPLY CHAIN TECH TRENDS REPORT3By automating key functions like intake management, supplier interactions and contract execution, agentic AI frees procurement professionals to focus on strategic, high-value tasks.Gartner predicts that by 2028, 33% of enterprise software applications will include agentic AI, up from less than 1% in 2024, enabling 15% of day-to-day work decisions to be made autonomously.1 Successful adoption hinges on strong governance to align AI decisions with company policies and regulations, while legacy ERP systems pose integration challenges that require careful planning. For those who master it, agentic AI will evolve beyond digital assistants, becoming the default interface for procurement. Multi-agent systems will autonomously manage sourcing, supplier relationships, compliance and contract negotiations, shaping procurement’s future with unprecedented agility and precision.Why It MattersAgentic AI
