This session aim to help you answer the question ”How can I do this in my own organization?”. ”This” in this occasion being using digital procurement to create use cases such as Holger (RPA robot) and Hilda (AI algorithms) and possible other ways of automating procurement. For Maersk, customer needs – both internal and external – are the starting point. How has their strategic goal drilled down to the actual use cases you will learn more about? What are the lessons learned?

There are certain key aspects of this transformation;
