The generative artificial intelligence (AI) in procurement market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.12 billion in 2023 to $0.16 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 28.7%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to heightened data availability, increasing complexity in supply chains, vendor relationships, emphasis on strategic procurement, and the proliferation of big data.

The generative artificial intelligence (AI) in procurement market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.43 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be credited to the increased adoption of cloud computing, integration with IoT and big data, expansion of industry-specific solutions, emphasis on sustainability, and the emergence of autonomous procurement. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass AI-driven predictive analytics, autonomous procurement, dynamic pricing optimization, conversational AI interfaces, and multi-modal data fusion.

The increasing demand for cloud services is poised to drive the expansion of generative artificial intelligence (AI) within the procurement market in the foreseeable future. Cloud services, which encompass computing services accessed via the internet, including storage, databases, and software, are offered by cloud computing providers, eliminating the need for on-premises infrastructure. The growing reliance on cloud services is fueled by the pursuit of agility, innovation, cost efficiencies, and competitive advantages in an increasingly digital and interconnected global landscape. Generative AI technology in procurement benefits from the robust computational capabilities and scalability provided by cloud services, enabling companies to fully leverage generative AI algorithms while capitalizing on the adaptable, easily accessible, and cost-effective nature of cloud computing infrastructure. For instance, Eurostat, the Luxembourg-based statistical office of the European Union, reported in December 2023 that the adoption rate of cloud computing services among medium-sized enterprises rose to 59% in 2022 from 53% in 2021. Hence, the growing need for cloud services is propelling the growth of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in the procurement market.

Key players in the generative artificial intelligence (AI) procurement market are developing innovative solutions such as the generative AI Suite to enhance the competitive edge of finance and procurement teams. A generative AI suite for procurement encompasses a suite of AI-powered tools and solutions aimed at streamlining and optimizing various facets of the procurement process.
