@bmaltaverne.bsky.social#ThoughtOfTheDay: #Orchestration gets most of the attention, but only covers how agents communicate
#Semantics determines whether they understand each other
W/o a governed semantic layer, agents guess & the guesses look exactly like answers

@gone-things.bsky.social#Procurement was the commercial process of purchasing goods, serviced, or other works from external sources, and agreeing the terms on which they will be supplied. Major procurement activity may have involved the use of a tendering or competitive bidding process.
@timothyhughes.bsky.socialTechnology can give procurement and sales the time. What we choose to do with it is still up to us. Read @SuperstarHelen’s latest Twins Talk. bit.ly/4hI6rpX #sales #procurement #socialselling

@leansupplai.bsky.socialThe median industrial supplier in Japan was founded 24 years before its counterpart in India. That’s a stark maturity gap. The median Japanese supplier was founded in 1985, while India’s was founded in 2009. https://leansupplai.com/en/suppliers #SupplierSourcing #GlobalSupplyChain #Procurement
@bmaltaverne.bsky.social#MCP isn’t dead, but it isn’t the answer either. It’s infrastructure for connecting #AI to tools and #procurement vendors are betting on it. The real question: what’s actually shipped?

@bmaltaverne.bsky.social#AgenticAI in #procurement needs more than orchestration. Shared #semantics determine whether agents actually understand suppliers, spend, contracts and risk. Own the vocabulary, not just the agents. #AI

@bibo72.bsky.socialA midstream operator loses $45K/hr to downtime. Emergency sourcing runs on a phone tree — 40% no bidding, 35% premium. An agent parallelizes all 65 suppliers: 2 days to 4 hours.

@deconspray.bsky.socialWhat if accessibility failures aren't knowledge problems, but incentive problems? Sheri Byrne-Haber's game theory lens is worth a read.
