Closing the AI Gap: A Roadmap for Procurement in Latin America

AI is transforming procurement, but in Latin America, most organizations are still stuck in early-stage pilots.

Only 15% of procurement leaders in the region have begun using the technology, compared to 29% worldwide, according to a new GEP survey. The issue isn’t ambition. It’s readiness. From low data maturity to risk aversion, teams are struggling to scale AI despite rising pressure to modernize.

However, with the right roadmap, it’s not too late to lead.

Based on a new GEP survey of CPOs in the region, this report explores what’s holding teams back — and outlines a practical path forward.
