Is your procurement ready for AI?

The AI readiness check is a 2–3 hour assessment: we look at whether your procurement data, systems and team are ready for AI, and name the use cases worth starting with.

Many procurement teams want to use AI but do not know where to begin. The readiness check brings clarity before any money goes into tools – sober, and based on your real data.

What the AI readiness check covers

01

Data review

ERP, spend data, supplier master data, catalogs: quality and availability for AI use cases.

02

Tool landscape

What is in use today – S/4HANA, Ariba, Coupa, Onventis, Excel – and where can AI components connect?

03

Skills & adoption

Who on the team is comfortable with AI, where is training needed, where are rules needed?

04

Use-case map

Prioritised AI opportunities with an assessment of effort, value and risk.

Who it is for

For heads of procurement and digitalisation leads in mid-sized companies who want to start with AI but lack a clear entry point. Also useful when first experiments with ChatGPT or Copilot are running without structure.

Outcome

A concise assessment with a prioritised list of use cases, the main gaps in data and systems, and a recommendation for the first step – such as a use-case workshop, tool selection or going straight to a pilot.

How it works

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI readiness check?

A concise assessment: in 2–3 hours we check whether your procurement data, systems, skills and processes are ready for AI, and prioritise the use cases worth starting with.

What does the AI readiness check cost?

That depends on scope and format. After a short intro call you receive a concrete quote.

What do you need from us beforehand?

An overview of your systems, a sample export of order or spend data and a list of tasks that take a lot of time today. None of it needs to be perfect.

Do we need an e-procurement system first?

No. We look at the data you work with today. If the foundation is missing, we say so openly and show what should come first.

Is the check on site or online?

Both are possible. We agree on the format with you in the kick-off call.

Let's talk about your procurement.

In a free intro call we look at where your procurement stands on AI and which next step makes sense – readiness check, workshop, tool selection or pilot.
