Thank you Icertis for inviting Kraig Conrad, CAE, CTP and #NCMA to share our insights.
Contracts are often overlooked as one of the largest untapped opportunities to enable vital outcomes with AI and data. As the federal contracting landscape continues to evolve, the integration of #AI and the emphasis on standardized communication will play crucial roles in driving efficiency and effectiveness. In an episode of "The Fast 'Tract" podcast, Bernadette Bulacan, Chief Evangelist at Icertis, sits down with Kraig Conrad, CEO of the National Contract Management Association (NCMA) to discuss key trends and opportunities in the federal contracting space, including the role of AI.
