Icertis, an AI-powered contract intelligence, announced that Shashi Mandapaty has been appointed to its Strategic Advisory Board.
Most recently, Mandapaty was the Chief Procurement Officer at Johnson & Johnson, where he led global procurement of more than $30 billion across 35,000 suppliers to drive innovation and value by embedding procurement into the broader business ecosystem.
Prior to joining Johnson & Johnson, he earned industry recognition and delivered measurable results over the course of more than sixteen years at Procter & Gamble.
As part of the Icertis Strategic Advisory Board, Mandapaty will advise the company as it leads procurement to maximize the value of business relationships and drive strategic decision-making with GenAI-powered agentic workflows. Mandapaty’s expertise will reinforce the company’s position as the contract intelligence platform of choice for enterprises as they look to drive profitability, materially impact business outcomes, and pursue innovation in an agentic future through enhanced contract performance.
“The true mark of a mature procurement function is not just savings or scale, but how well it establishes and nurtures supplier relationships that quietly power some of the most unexpected innovation and outsized growth. At the heart of those relationships lies the contract—not as a static document, but as a dynamic, living system of trust, accountability, and collaboration, With its deep integrations across core enterprise systems and agentic workflows built to handle real-world complexity, Icertis is uniquely positioned to turn contracts into strategic assets. I look forward to pushing the boundaries of what contract intelligence can do for modern enterprises,” said Shashi Mandapaty.
“90 percent of procurement leaders have considered or are already using AI agents to optimize operations in the year ahead. Icertis is driving this transformation by building agents and agentic workflows into its enterprise-grade platform to enhance productivity, augment execution, and increase the ROI from business relationships. Shashi is another powerful strategic advisor for Icertis as we shape the agentic future of procurement and make autonomous contracting a reality for the world’s enterprises. He believes in our mission because contracts sit at the heart of strategic initiatives across every industry. In a macro environment where change and complexity are all but guaranteed, contract performance is the cornerstone of long-term business success,” said Samir Bodas, CEO and Co-founder, Icertis.
