1:55 PM ProcureCon Partner Workshop: How to Build A Sustainable Contract Compliance Program

Complex supplier agreements, fragmented contract visibility, and inconsistent oversight can create hidden financial leakage across supplier relationships. In this workshop, procurement and finance leaders will learn how to build a sustainable contract compliance program that shifts organizations from periodic audits to continuous margin protection. Attendees will explore how a structured, ongoing review process can validate supplier charges against negotiated terms, improve supplier accountability, recover lost value, and drive continuous improvement across contracts, processes, and supplier performance. 


Key takeaways: 

    • How to shift contract compliance from episodic recovery to continuous margin protection.  
    • How to identify where negotiated value is at risk across supplier agreements and indirect spend.  
    • How to prioritize suppliers and categories based on risk, spend, and contract complexity.  
    • How to turn audit findings into stronger contract language, better supplier accountability, and future savings.
