Agents take the repetitive procurement work, your team keeps the judgment

Agent-first is the common mistake. Point a model at a function before its data is reachable and you get confident answers with nothing under them.

So we build the data layer first: reach the sources, clean them, make them queryable. Then the agents go on top, then the workflows. A person stays in the validation seat, so the judgment never leaves the team.

The agents take the repetitive work off the desk. The team keeps its structure and its judgment, and stops being the layer that moves data by hand.

One place it starts is the AP desk. Quote and invoice attachments come out of the mailbox, vendor and line items and amount are extracted, run against the delegation-of-authority matrix, and routed for approval, so AP stops being the routing layer.
