Agentic AI for Workflow Automation

UBC IT offers support in the design, deployment, and management of Agentic AI systems. Agentic AI can streamline tasks and enhance service delivery by completing complex multi-step tasks. While traditional AI assistants require prompts, agentic AI solutions can plan, reason, and complete complex workflows with minimal human intervention. Agents can be part of an enterprise system, or developed for unique use cases. 

UBC IT provides expertise throughout the lifecycle of these solutions, from identifying suitable use cases and solution design to implementation, security review, ongoing monitoring, and operational support.
