Cis correct — agents in UiPath canintelligently automate complex procurement workflowsby combining tools likedocument extraction,web search for price benchmarks,policy validation, andLLM-based reasoning.

In this use case:

The agent extractsstructured data(item, price, quantity) from multiple quotations

Compares prices withexternal market sourcesusingWeb Searchor integrated APIs

Appliescompany policies or thresholdsusing system prompts and guardrails

Flags anomalies, escalates exceptions, or provides summarized comparisons

This reduces:

Manual effort

Human error

Turnaround time for approvals

And increases:

Policy compliance

Market alignment

Decision speed for procurement officers

Options A, B, and D all fall short of UiPath agent capabilities. These responses describepassive or limitedautomations, whereas agents are built to operateproactively and contextually, especially in high-value business functions like procurement.

This example reflects theagentic automation blueprintat work — combining perception, decision, and action across multiple systems in real time.
