| You’re not buying software. You’re choosing who shapes your next decision. Most procurement teams know the difference between a supplier and a partner, in theory. In practice? The line blurs fast. A slick pitch deck. A familiar name. A price that fits the budget. And suddenly you’re locked into a relationship that was never really designed to work. Here’s the uncomfortable truth: the way you select is the problem. Catalogs don’t capture fit. One-off transactions don’t build resilience. And CAPEX vs OPEX isn’t just a finance question — it’s a strategic signal about how you see the future of your operations. At the Decision Science Summit | Madrid, June 18–19, Maurizio Stanca and Federica Dallanoce from ADACI – Associazione Italiana Acquisti e Supply Management are flipping the procurement conversation. This session goes straight at the question most organizations avoid: are you optimizing transactions, or building the relationships that actually reduce risk and create operational cohesion? And yes, AI is already in the room as the tool that accelerates fit analysis, cuts through catalog noise, and gets you to a real answer faster. Human expertise closes the loop. AI removes the friction before you even get there. A supplier executes your order. A partner changes what you’re capable of ordering. Know the difference before you sign. 📍 Madrid | 🗓️ June 18–19 Secure your ticket: https://decisionsciencesummit.com/ |
