Workday has unveiled its innovative Agent System of Record, designed to centralise the management of AI agents across organisations. This new capability aims to empower businesses to navigate the complexities of an increasingly automated workforce, enabling them to optimise their digital resources effectively.

As organisations adopt advanced AI solutions, the number of AI agents—both from Workday and third-party providers—continues to grow. This expansion presents challenges in terms of deployment, security, compliance, and cost management. Without a centralised system, companies risk fragmentation that can lead to inefficiencies and difficulties in measuring the return on their AI investments.

Aneel Bhusri

"The workforce of the future will include both humans and AI agents, and businesses that don’t learn to manage this incredibly complex reality will fall quickly behind," stated Aneel Bhusri, co-founder and executive chair of Workday. He emphasised that the company is uniquely positioned to guide organisations through this transition, leveraging its vast experience in human capital management to encompass digital labour.

The Agent System of Record will streamline the onboarding process for new AI agents while defining their roles and responsibilities. This centralised framework will allow organisations to track the impact of these agents, forecast costs, and ensure compliance with relevant regulations. With real-time operational visibility, businesses can monitor agent activities and enforce policies, enhancing their overall effectiveness.

Carl Eschenbach

Carl Eschenbach, CEO of Workday, added, "At Workday, we believe that humans and agents should peacefully coexist in a way that amplifies human performance." His assertion highlights the company's commitment to fostering a harmonious integration of AI agents within the workforce, ensuring that they complement rather than replace human capabilities.

Workday also announced the introduction of role-based AI agents, which offer greater autonomy compared to traditional task-based agents. These new agents—including a contracts agent, payroll agent, financial auditing agent, and policy agent—are designed to support specific business functions by performing a wide range of tasks with minimal oversight. For instance, the contracts agent can analyse contracts for obligations and opportunities, while the Payroll Agent automates audit workflows and identifies payroll discrepancies.

The new capabilities will be accessible through the Workday Marketplace, allowing organisations to discover and deploy AI agents that best suit their needs. This approach not only enhances operational efficiency but also maintains the necessary governance and control over AI deployments.

Industry leaders have expressed enthusiasm about the potential of Workday's Agent System of Record. R "Ray" Wang, CEO and Principal Analyst of Constellation Research, noted, "The rise of AI agents in the enterprise has created an urgent need for a centralised system of record to manage and govern this increasingly complex landscape."

As businesses continue to explore the integration of AI into their operations, the Workday Agent System of Record stands as a pivotal development in the evolution of workforce management. By providing a comprehensive platform for managing both human and digital labour, Workday is helping organisations prepare for the future of work—a future where AI agents play an integral role in driving productivity and innovation.
