Episode Notes

Source-to-pay sits at the heart of how organizations control costs, manage supplier risk, and turn procurement strategy into day-to-day purchasing. Integrated processes, trusted data and effective governance are becoming even more important as AI begins to automate work across enterprises.

In this episode, SAP's Rob Hall, Head of UK & Ireland Finance and Spend Solutions, and Mo Ahmad, Head of Procurement and Fieldglass, join host Alex Pillow to explore how source-to-pay, trusted data, and AI are helping transform spend management and risk.

Key topics include:

• What source-to-pay covers, from spend analysis and sourcing through contracts, purchase orders, invoices and payment
• The role of SAP Fieldglass in managing contingent and external workforces across procurement and HR
• Why disconnected systems might create higher costs, compliance gaps, and limited visibility into approved suppliers
• How a common platform and single data layer can support integration across procurement, finance, and supply chain
• Why governance, certified connections, human oversight, and clear guardrails remain key as agentic AI adoption grows
