Artificial Intelligence (AI) guidance

September 18, 2024 by 1 Comment | Category guidance, Procurement news, Scottish Procurement

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems, tools and products are part of a rapidly growing and evolving technology market.

New guidance, developed to assist buyers and suppliers has now been published on both the Procurement Journey and Supplier Journey websites:

The responsible use of AI is permitted in the procurement process by both bidders of Scottish public sector contracts and Buyers, in accordance with their public body’s policies and guidance. However, your organisation should undertake proportionate actions to mitigate any risks and maximise any benefits which AI may present.

    Great article! The potential of artificial intelligence to revolutionize industries is truly remarkable. AI isn’t just about automation; it’s about augmenting human capabilities, providing deeper insights, and enhancing decision-making processes. I particularly agree with your point on the ethical considerations and how responsible AI usage is key for long-term success. Looking forward to seeing how AI continues to evolve and shape the future of technology. Thanks for sharing this insightful read!
