ProcureTech Unpacked

Pure Procurement
Weekly podcast. Next episode on Friday.
Procurement technology moves fast, and the hype moves faster.

Most teams are drowning in vendor pitches and conflicting advice, with no clean way to tell what a tool actually does from what it does in a demo. ProcureTech Unpacked digs into both sides of the "art of the possible": what today's technology can truly deliver, and where current capabilities hit their limits.

Host Joël Collin-Demers brings 15+ years of hands-on procurement technology implementation to every episode, across three formats:

Monthly Deep Dives (~35 min) are the show's Market News Review. Joël and co-host Anders Lillevik, a serial chief procurement officer with 25 years running enterprise procurement and now founder and CEO of software vendor Focal Point, work through what's actually happening in procurement technology and test it against frameworks that outlast any product cycle. Expect real implementation stories and honest disagreement.

Guest Interviews (~35 min) bring in the people building, operating and studying the market to share their observations and lessons learned. Interviews are about exposing you to big ideas worth sharing and discussing.

Field Notes (10-15 min) bridge the longer formats. Joël extends the best concepts shared in The Pure Procurement Newsletter with added context and analysis.

Built for procurement and finance leaders who own technology investment decisions and want to understand the technology shaping our function.

Every episode aims to be sharp, actionable and we never take ourselves too seriously.
