Picture a supply chain where every item, price and attribute traces back to a single trusted source, powered by Infor Supply Chain Management and Symmetric’s data sourcing and attribution capabilities. Imagine a future where off-contract spend is visible, price changes flow through automatically, and your data is clean enough to scale AI with confidence.
That starts with emphasizing the use of contract management as a critical entry point for supply chain data. Get it right and you stabilize costs, mitigate tariff and regulatory risk, and build a foundation that makes AI usable and explainable.
In this live session, Vicki Dardenne, Associate Vice President of Procurement and Value Analysis at Baptist Health in Little Rock Arkansas, joins leaders from Infor and Symmetric for an end-to-end walkthrough of how data quality drives business processes to include contracts, master data management, clinical systems, purchasing, accounts payable, and analytics.
Learnings include:
- How to make contracts the single source of truth for items, pricing and terms
- How ERP and external data services operationalize contract intelligence together
- The foundational investments that make AI scalable and explainable
- Operator lessons from Baptist Health on governance, change management and KPI development for long-term success
