AI in contracting has entered its “show me the results” era.
Now in its fourth year, the AI Adoption in Contracting Report—the world’s leading study on AI in contract and commercial management—returns with something new: real, longitudinal evidence of what’s actually working. The conversation has moved past hype and fear to a more practical understanding of where AI delivers value, where it falls short, and what it takes to make it stick.
AI is no longer experimental. It’s embedded in daily workflows and core processes, reshaping how teams draft, negotiate, manage risk, and measure performance. Some organizations are investing boldly; others are testing quietly. Either way, AI is now part of the contracting toolkit.
Drawing on the latest research, this session explores:
- Where AI adoption really stands today
- Which expectations have been met—and which haven’t
- How much progress the market has made in four years
- What impact AI is having on performance, process, and people
- What impact AI is truly having on performance, processes, and people
