EP 09: Provider of the Week: ProcureAbility

In this Provider of the Week episode of the ProcureTech Insider podcast, host Jyothi Hartley speaks with Darshan Deshmukh, President of ProcureAbility.

ProcureAbility is a leading procurement and supply chain services provider, offering advisory, managed services, digital solutions, and talent support to help organizations drive measurable value and build sustainable procurement capabilities.

In this episode, Darshan shares how ProcureAbility has evolved from a traditional consulting model into a full-service partner, one that not only identifies opportunities but also helps clients execute and sustain results over time.

From their focus on procurement-specialized talent to their emphasis on becoming a seamless extension of client teams, this discussion highlights what it takes for high-performing procurement teams to move beyond strategy and deliver consistent outcomes and value to the business.

In this episode, you'll learn:

-How ProcureAbility structures its services across advisory, managed services, staffing, and digital

-Why talent specialization is a core differentiator in procurement delivery

-How they measure success through both traditional KPIs and "client implied promise"

-The growing importance of revenue enablement and supply chain resilience as procurement metrics

-What procurement leaders should expect as AI reshapes service delivery models
