The State ofProcurement in 2025:Strong, Smart, andBattle-Tested Procurement enters 2025 on solid ground, but the road ahead isanything but smooth. Economic uncertainty, supply chain volatility,nagging inflation, and geopolitical tensions continue to challengeeven the most prepared organizations. A wave of new U.S. tradepolicies and shifting global alliances adds more turbulence to themix. Yet, amid the noise, a clear signal is emerging. Procurement is notjust holding steady; it is gaining ground. Leaders are doubling downon operational efficiency and investing in AI-powered ProcureTechto boost agility and intelligence across the function. The promise ofAI’s impact is exciting, but these are very early days. The 2025 playbook looks familiar. When trouble starts lurking on thehorizon, procurement teams are once again pulled into the center ofbusiness operations, impacting cash and bottom-line results withsmart strategies to match today’s tough times. The smartest CPOsunderstand the importance of building resilient and agile procurementoperations. The ability to adapt quickly to unforeseen challenges,to diversify supply chains, and to implement robust risk mitigationstrategies will be crucial for navigating future uncertainties. A Year of “Great”Uncertainty In 2025, CPO uncertainty is greater than ever. In a matter of weeks,tariffs and counter-tariffs have been announced, recalculated, paused,increased, negotiated down or up, and/or waived. It is no surprisethat more CPOs (57%) entered the year with “Great Uncertainty.” Asthe war in Ukraine and other armed conflicts around the world seemfar from any resolution, further man-made supply chain disruptionsare expected. Meanwhile, natural disasters and extreme weather areoccurring on a seemingly more frequent basis. While AI is one causefor optimism, bad actors are already starting to use the technologyto commit fraud and cyberattacks on a scale never seen before.Uncertainty appears to be procurement’s “New Normal.” 57% of All CPOs View 2025with GREAT Uncertainty. Challenges Are Certain Not surprisingly, an unprecedented number of CPOs (90%) believethat 2025 will be more challenging than 2024. This reflects the factthat most procurement organizations still struggle with visibility intotheir supply chains, with both a lack of capability to model alternativesourcing scenarios and the agility to rapidly adapt to new tariffs,regulations, and geopolitical events. Despite the challenges, CPOsare showing a fair amount of confidence in their teams and roughlyhalf believe they will deliver more in 2025 than last year. 90% of CPOs Believe2025 Will Be MOREChallenging than 2024. Spend UnderManagement Procurement departments, on average, now manage 71% of totalspend, a sizable jump from last year (66%) and the highest level inArdent’s 20-years history of procurement research. Even so, thereare more opportunities to go after the almost one third of unmanagedspend. More spend under management typically means less risk,better quality, and more savings for CPOs. Having visibility intospend, and the proper solutions to engage end-users and to supportprocurement professionals, can increase spend under management.This is worth pursuing! Savings Remains theCPO’s #1 Priority The CPO’s top priority in 2025 is savings (identified by 71% of allCPOs), reflecting the current market uncertainty as well as thelingering battle against inflation. New U.S. trade policies that haveintroduced a series of tariffs with complex and frequently changingvalues and scopes, add a new, compounding issue that will makehitting savings targets more difficult. Meanwhile, the aftermath ofthe pandemic, coupled with geopolitical tensions and destructivenatural disasters, underscores why 42% of CPOs have “managingsupply risk” as a top priority th
