How Procurement Leaders Choose an S2P Platform

How procurement leaders choose a source-to-pay platform, and what it takes to move toward autonomous procurement. Recorded at Zycus Horizon US Edition, this panel brings together three procurement leaders to talk candidly about selecting an S2P platform and the shift to agentic, autonomous procurement. Moderated by Debbie Fogel-Monnissen, Interim Chief Executive Officer at the Institute for Supply Management (ISM), the conversation features Mariaelena Gonzalez, Vice President Strategic Projects at Confie, and Purvee Kondal, Chief Procurement Officer and Founder & Board Member at PortlyAI. Mariaelena walks through Confie's full RFP journey, assembling a cross-functional team across accounts payable, procurement, finance, IT, legal and compliance, starting with six vendors, using analyst research, and narrowing to a final shortlist before choosing Zycus. The panel digs into selection criteria, innovation and fit, why Zycus started its AI journey ahead of traditional source-to-pay players, and how agentic AI and autonomous teams of agents are reshaping what a modern procurement platform can do.
