Emro announced on October 29, 2026 that it has won a project to build a purchasing automation AI agent for GS Caltex, according to techm.kr.
The project covers the full purchasing process for small-value material purchases, from request for quotation and evaluation through supplier selection and ordering. GS Caltex's strategic purchasing division handles about 2,700 such purchase cases per year.
The agent will be developed on Emro's in-house AI development platform, AI Studio. It will be integrated with GS Caltex's existing systems, and exception cases will be routed to human purchasers rather than handled automatically.
The project also includes building master data and operational monitoring systems to support purchasing automation.
GS Caltex's strategic purchasing division had been monitoring technology trends together with its in-house DAX (Digital & AI Transformation) center to improve its roughly 2,700 annual small-value material purchases, according to the background provided.
