The 30-minute session, scheduled for 1:00 PM, features CobbleStone Account Manager Alex Carraro and WSIPC Contract Administrator Cynthia Gefeller. They plan to address the specific challenges of education-sector procurement, focusing on how automated systems can stabilize workflows and prevent the budgetary disruptions often caused by stalled contract cycles.

Participants will explore a suite of digital tools designed to handle high-volume documentation, including generative AI for risk insights, sentiment analysis, and automated redlining. The presentation will also cover the implementation of centralized, searchable repositories and compliance monitoring designed to keep school districts audit-ready. Bradford Jones, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at CobbleStone, noted that providing these teams with robust procurement strategies helps protect the foundational needs of students and educators.
