A staff member who uses agentic AI to reduce supply chain friction in the Public Sector

Discover how agentic AI reduces supply chain friction and risk

Procurement approvals being delayed by email chains? Supplier compliance reactive and manual? Budget owners lacking visibility? This webinar is for you.

 

AI agents can remove friction from procurement while improving governance, but many organisations don’t know how or where to start.

 

This session with Telefónica Tech and Microsoft for Local Authorities and Housing Associations shows how you can prevent overspend, strengthen financial control, and modernise procurement with intelligent, AI-driven workflows.

 

You’ll learn about:

 

  • Using AI procurement assistants to help prevent overspend
  • Automated supplier workflows that improve governance and grip
  • Intelligent approvals that remove bottlenecks
  • Predictive supplier risk management
  • Getting real-time spend analytics for early visibility

 

We’ll be discussing how to overcome common challenges in these sectors by leveraging Microsoft technology solutions such as Power Platform, Copilot, and Dynamics 365.

 

Not using Dynamics 365 for ERP? You don’t have to be – Microsoft Power Apps, Power Automate and Copilot provide a range of opportunities to extend and improve your existing ERP system.

 

Join us for this 30-minute webinar to discover how AI agents can help you transform supply chain and procurement at your Local Authority or Housing Association.

 

FAQs

In this webinar we’re covering more than Dynamics 365 for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). You can be using other ERP systems, such as SAP or Oracle, and still be able to leverage Microsoft Power Platform and Copilot to extend or surround existing processes with automation and AI agents. This can add immense value and help to modernise your existing ERP solution, without an extensive replacement project.

Part of the Modernising Finance & Operations in Local Authorities webinar series

As technology advances and stakeholder expectations evolve, many housing associations and local councils are held back by inefficient, outdated systems. Nowhere is this more pressing than in Finance and Operations (F&O) – where legacy ERP systems present a huge opportunity to modernise.

 

Join Telefónica Tech and Microsoft for a focused webinar series exploring how local authorities can transform F&O with tangible ROI in time savings, reduced operational costs, and organisation resiliency.

 

Through practical examples broken down into key areas, we’ll discuss how public sector organisations are approaching challenges such as fragmented data, supply chain friction, and risk management – while enabling AI responsibly.

 

Designed for senior finance, operations and technology leaders in Housing and Local Authorities, this series of sessions focuses on crystalising future vision with actionable takeaways.
