How Clorox is sharpening procurement operations with AI

Clorox is transforming how we plan, forecast, and operate our supply chain—moving from manual processes to predictive, data-informed decision-making.

In a recent Consumer Goods Technology article, Eva Choe, Clorox’s chief procurement officer, shares how predictive analytics is helping teams improve accuracy, reduce complexity, and move faster with greater confidence in a constantly changing environment.

Highlights from Eva’s perspective

What challenges was Clorox solving for?

Historically, supply chain planning relied on manual, time-intensive processes that limited speed and accuracy. By adopting predictive analytics, Clorox is reducing friction in planning and enabling teams to act with greater confidence and agility.

What impact is predictive analytics having today?

Applying predictive analytics to pricing and procurement has significantly improved forecast accuracy while reducing manual inputs. In some workflows, teams are seeing time savings of 30–40%, enabling them to spend less time building forecasts and more time making decisions.

How does this support broader transformation?

This work is part of Clorox’s larger digital transformation to modernize tools, simplify processes, and strengthen data-driven decision-making. While AI surfaces insights and automates workflows, human expertise remains essential—ensuring the right strategic decisions, supplier relationships and approvals stay firmly people-led.
