UiPath & Deloitte launch agentic ERP for AI-first ops
UiPath has expanded its alliance with Deloitte with the launch of Deloitte's Agentic ERP offering, a package built around agentic automation and process orchestration for enterprise resource planning environments.
The two firms are positioning the offering as a response to operational work that still sits outside core ERP platforms. Many organisations run finance and supply chain processes across spreadsheets, email threads, portals and specialist tools alongside systems from major ERP vendors. That fragmentation can increase manual effort and slow cycle times.
ERP platforms often sit at the centre of reconciliation, evidence gathering and exception handling. When work requires switching between multiple applications, organisations can face inconsistent user experiences and higher operating costs. Control and audit workloads can also rise when evidence is spread across different systems.
Process scope
Deloitte's Agentic ERP uses UiPath Maestro for end-to-end process orchestration and UiPath Agent Builder to build and coordinate AI agents. It covers workflows across common ERP operating models, including Record to Report, Source to Pay, Lead to Cash, and Data and Master Data.
The architecture coordinates software agents, UiPath robots, enterprise systems and people, routing exceptions to human users with the right context and oversight. The companies present this as a shift from task-level automation to orchestrating end-to-end processes across systems.
UiPath and Deloitte said the approach reduces manual work and supports a move from assisted automation-where users trigger or supervise many steps-to more autonomous execution across larger volumes.
Technology choices
The offering sits within Deloitte's "AI-native, plug-and-play" Agentic ERP North Star architecture, built alongside packaged ERP programmes and intended to work across different ERP environments.
The design is model-agnostic and uses a "bring your own LLM" approach. Deloitte and UiPath said the architecture standardises orchestration, security and policy enforcement across the enterprise, with governance controls provided through UiPath's AI Trust Layer.
As generative AI moves from pilots into operations, model choice and governance have become central concerns for large organisations. Procurement teams often want flexibility in model selection, while risk and compliance leaders want consistent guardrails across business units and regions.
Workforce impact
Deloitte and UiPath describe Agentic ERP as a way to split high-volume execution and follow-through between agents, robots and human users. Agents and robots handle routine steps and keep work moving, while humans remain responsible for exceptions, approvals and decisions.
The offering also includes a "persona-led experience" that surfaces tasks, context and recommended next actions inside the tools users already work in, the companies said. The approach reflects a broader push in enterprise software to embed automation into everyday workflows rather than requiring staff to use separate automation interfaces.
UiPath has historically been known for robotic process automation, which typically automates repeatable steps in user interfaces. Agentic automation extends that model by introducing software agents that can plan and act across a process while following policy and governance controls. Orchestration then coordinates how agents, bots and humans hand work off to one another.
Centre in EMEA
Beyond the Agentic ERP launch, the alliance includes UiPath support for a Deloitte SAP AI & Innovation Centre in EMEA. Deloitte described the centre as an accelerator focused on integrating AI and emerging technologies into SAP environments, with an emphasis on responsible, compliant adoption.
SAP systems remain a major component of ERP estates in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Many SAP customers are also navigating shifts in product roadmaps and deployment models while assessing where automation and AI can reduce operating costs in finance, procurement and supply chain.
Hitesh Ramani, UiPath's Chief Accounting Officer and Deputy CFO, linked the announcement to modernisation programmes focused on ERP backbones.
"Together with Deloitte, we're helping enterprises take an AI-first approach to ERP modernisation. By combining autonomous AI agents with RPA, organisations can move from assisted automation to intelligent workflow orchestration-unlocking efficiency and strategic capacity," Ramani said.
Jerry Hoberman, Deloitte's SAP Offering Leader, said orchestration has become a differentiator as organisations look to scale AI safely across core systems.
"The promise of ERP modernisation isn't new-but the ability to orchestrate it is. With Agentic ERP, powered by UiPath, clients get a practical path to create tangible value by scaling AI safely: model-agnostic intelligence, effective end-to-end orchestration, and governance by design that turns AI from pilots into performance," Hoberman said.
