After a brief introduction, this course will cover procurement technology solutions that will help achieve your goals. First, the course will cover Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), a large software program that is used across the entire organization. The ERP segment will focus on just the procurement segments and how one can use this information to achieve your goals. Then the course will cover Procurement-to-Pay solutions that can either be integrated into ERP or as a stand alone solution. Lastly, the course will cover some of the "new" digital and other enabling technologies (e.g. AI, ML & RPA). All of these technologies and processes will make your procurement department more efficient and effective such that you can work on more value add activities.
