Description

Many organizations overlook the financial value buried in their contracts—rebates, volume discounts, and performance clauses often go untracked, leading to missed savings and compliance gaps. Entergy faced this exact challenge and responded with a GenAI-powered initiative that fundamentally reshaped its approach to contract management.

In this session, you'll learn how Entergy’s AI, Procurement, and Supply Chain teams collaborated to uncover hidden savings opportunities across their contract portfolio. The initiative began by addressing a critical problem: the absence of a centralized process to review and act on financial performance clauses. Entergy’s solution? Use Generative AI and data analytics to systematically analyze contracts, identify key entitlements, and establish a repeatable tracking mechanism.

Discover how this approach not only improved compliance but also recovered real dollars, drove measurable performance gains, and laid the foundation for a broader AI-enabled transformation. If you're responsible for procurement, finance, compliance, or AI implementation, this session will provide both inspiration and a roadmap.

Takeaways:

  • How to apply Generative AI to identify and act on financial terms like rebates and volume discounts
  • A roadmap for creating a centralized process to track and manage contractual entitlements
  • Best practices for reviewing large-scale contract repositories using AI and analytics
  • Key metrics to measure success, including dollars recovered and contracts optimized
