AI in Public Procurement: Practical Applications, Legal Guardrails, and Real-World Use Cases
Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how work gets done—but in public procurement, the stakes are higher. Transparency, fairness, and legal compliance cannot be compromised.
This full-day seminar provides a practical, no-nonsense roadmap for using AI responsibly in public procurement. Participants will learn what AI is, how it works, where it adds real value, and where it must not be used.
Through live demonstrations, real-world procurement scenarios, and structured guidance, this course will show how AI can dramatically improve efficiency in the following:
- Market research
- Scope of work development
- Best value evaluation design
- Document review and quality control
- Vendor communication

- Performance reporting
Participants will leave with ready-to-use prompts, workflows, and an AI Use Policy framework tailored to public sector requirements.
