Synopsis

The automotive industry absorbed more than $25 billion in tariff obligations in just the first seven months of 2025. Finance teams are modeling scenarios in an environment where policy can reverse overnight. Supply chain leaders are managing thousands of supplier claims that email and spreadsheets were never designed to handle. And through all of it, the pressure to maintain margins, fund innovation, and outpace Chinese competitors has not let up. This roundtable brings together a select group of senior finance and supply chain leaders to move beyond the headlines — and into what is actually working. The discussion is grounded in When Tariffs Hit an Industry in Transition, a new research report from ServiceNow and KPMG featuring perspectives from industry executives and experts including KPMG Managing Directors Corey Chandler, Len Prokopets, and Michael Pricer, alongside senior leaders from ServiceNow.


Discussion Topics

 A clear picture of where your peers are experiencing the most pressure  and where they are finding traction

 Practical frameworks for sequencing technology investment when budget is constrained and the need is urgent

 Direct insight into how leading OEMs are using AI and workflow automation to compress supplier onboarding, manage claims at scale, and build real-time supply chain visibility
