Together, they discuss why technology alone isn't enough and how data quality, process design, stakeholder alignment, and user adoption ultimately determine whether a procurement platform delivers lasting value.

The conversation examines common misconceptions around procurement technology, from selecting the "best" platform to assuming implementation is the finish line. Ryan and Leanne share practical lessons from supporting procurement technology initiatives every day, including how organizations can prepare for implementation, improve adoption, and continuously optimize their digital procurement capabilities over time.
