Agentic AI moves enterprise
Agentic AI is moving beyond demos: UiPath and Deloitte launched an ‘Agentic ERP’ solution and Snowflake unveiled Project SnowWork, while startups like Forcoda pushed secure AI agents — signalling firms want autonomous, workflow‑level automation now. Nvidia also debuted a platform for enterprise AI agents and partners (TCS among them) have started packaging outcome‑driven solutions.

Deloitte’s Agentic ERP is embedded in a plug‑and‑play “Agentic ERP North Star” architecture that uses UiPath Agent Builder and UiPath Maestro to orchestrate end‑to‑end processes such as Record‑to‑Report, Source‑to‑Pay, Lead‑to‑Cash and master‑data flows. (uipath.com) The UiPath release says the offering is model‑agnostic (“bring your own LLM”) and includes a UiPath AI Trust Layer for governance, and UiPath will support Deloitte’s SAP AI & Innovation Center in EMEA as part of the alliance. (uipath.com) Snowflake introduced Project SnowWork as a research preview on March 18, 2026, positioning it to autonomously execute multi‑step tasks — from board‑ready forecasts to churn analysis and supply‑chain bottleneck remediation — on governed Snowflake data. (snowflake.com) The SnowWork preview is rolling out to a limited set of customers and is explicitly framed as a desktop‑facing “outcome‑driven” layer that moves users from question to autonomous execution, according to CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy. (snowflake.com) NVIDIA unveiled an Agent Toolkit and open‑agent stack at GTC (March 16, 2026) that includes the OpenShell runtime, Nemotron open models and the AI‑Q agent blueprint, and named enterprise partners including Adobe, Salesforce and SAP among early adopters. (investor.nvidia.com) NVIDIA claims its AI‑Q hybrid architecture can cut query costs by more than 50% by combining frontier and open models for agent orchestration while adding policy‑based guardrails via OpenShell. (investor.nvidia.com) Tata Consultancy Services launched TCS Rapid Outcome AI (marketed March 17, 2026) — a NVIDIA‑powered platform that offers industry‑specific blueprints for moving agentic and generative AI from experiment to production at scale. (tcs.com) TCS is coupling that platform with ecosystem plays — multi‑year partnerships announced with ServiceNow and GitLab to embed a five‑stage AI Autonomy Framework and agentic orchestration into enterprise DevSecOps and workflow stacks. (tcs.com) Miami‑based shop Forcoda rolled out production AI agents in mid‑March — AI Content Agent, AI Lead Generation Agent and a Private LLM Assistant — and reports some clients saved more than 30 hours per week and reduced costs by roughly $57,000 per month. (prlog.org) Across these announcements, vendors are publishing deployable toolkits, security runtimes and consultative blueprints (traceable value models at Deloitte, Rapid Outcome AI at TCS, and OpenShell at NVIDIA) to convert pilot activity into measurable operational savings and governed agentic deployments.
