Gemini Without RAG = Fake Intelligence

And why you should build enterprise AI yourself in procurement?

Everyone’s talking about Gemini, ChatGPT, or Claude as the future of enterprise AI.

But here’s the truth: these tools don’t understand your business.

They don’t know your suppliers, your contracts, or your ERP data — until you teach them.

That’s where RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) comes in.

RAG is what makes AI enterprise-ready.
It connects your LLM (like Gemini or GPT) to your private knowledge base — your policies, POs, supplier records, and best practices.

With RAG, your AI stops guessing.
It starts reasoning — using your company’s actual data.

In procurement, this means:

✅ Instant supplier risk insights
✅ Automated negotiation summaries
✅ Faster sourcing decisions — backed by your own history
✅ Smarter workflows using tools like n8n, Make.com, and Power Automate

And the best part?

You don’t need a consultant or a million-dollar project to do it.

You can build Enterprise AI yourself — securely, step-by-step.

That’s what I explained in my latest talk on “Build Enterprise AI Yourself in Procurement.”

Because AI looks smart… until you use it wrong.

💡 At SCMDOJO , we’re helping organizations turn their data, processes, and people into real decision intelligence.
