Smarter Strategies for Efficiency and Innovation in Procurement in 2026
Live Webinar | February 18
3 PM GMT / 4 PM CET / 10 AM ET
Duration: 30 minutes
Procurement leaders are entering a defining moment. In 2026, higher expectations will require greater cost savings, increased workloads, and accelerated digital transformation, all while budgets and headcount remain constrained.
Join our webinar with The Hackett Group for a 30-minute webinar that transforms the "2026 Procurement Agenda and Key Issues Study" into actionable solutions. Learn how leading procurement teams achieve greater savings, boost productivity, and address capability gaps by combining digital procurement platforms with effective talent strategies.

- 81% cite access to skilled talent as a major or moderate concern
- Organizations report over 9% productivity gains and cycle-time reductions from AI-enabled initiatives
This webinar connects those insights to real-world execution, showing how procurement leaders can do more with less by combining technology, talent, and smarter processes.
