NCSU-GEP Research: Bridging the Procurement and Supply Chain Gap

Procurement and supply chain leaders are aligned on big goals like resilience, sustainability and quality. But gaps in execution still slow progress.

New research from GEP and North Carolina State University reveals why: siloed systems, unclear decision rights, and fragmented data stand in the way of effective AI use and real-time coordination.

This report explores the root causes of misalignment and shows how AI-powered orchestration helps leading companies build agility, collaboration and smarter decision-making across functions.

What’s Inside:

• Why alignment on risk and financial outcomes gives leaders a head start

• What’s holding back AI adoption and how to remove the barriers

• A practical framework for closing execution gaps and scaling orchestration across functions
