BlueBox Systems said its representative, Martin Schulze, will take part in a panel alongside other European industry figures. His keynote, “The Visibility Advantage: Building Resilient Procurement Processes”, is set to focus on how real-time logistics data can help procurement leaders make quicker and more reliable decisions.
The company argues that the rise of AI-enabled procurement platforms is increasing demand for clean, standardised supply chain data that can feed forecasting models, risk assessments, scenario planning and supplier monitoring. Schulze said the firm’s priority has always been to provide accurate, validated visibility data rather than compete on price alone.
BlueBox Systems specialises in real-time air and ocean cargo tracking, aggregating shipment data across transport modes for shippers, freight forwarders, logistics technology providers and enterprise supply chain platforms.

The ProcureTech Leaders Summit itself is being positioned as a forum for senior procurement executives to examine how digital innovation can reduce complexity, strengthen resilience and support more agile sourcing decisions. With supply chains still facing volatility from capacity constraints and geopolitical disruption, visibility and data quality are emerging as key differentiators.
