Achievement places the firm among a select group of AI and automation providers to hold all three of UiPath’s top distinctions

CHICAGO & FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.: Grant Thornton announced today that Auxis, a leading AI and automation provider now part of Grant Thornton Advisors LLC (Grant Thornton), has achieved Diamond Partner status - the highest business partner designation granted by UiPath, a global leader in agentic automation software.

UiPath Diamond Partner status is earned by a select group of corporate partners that demonstrate excellence through a highly developed AI and automation practice, exceptional sales performance, deep technical expertise and outstanding proficiency in delivering end-to-end UiPath business automation solutions at scale.

This recognition places Auxis among the top percentile of UiPath’s thousands of partners worldwide and strengthens Grant Thornton’s ability to deliver enterprise AI and automation solutions at scale. It puts Auxis among a select group of AI and automation providers in the U.S. to earn all three of UiPath’s most prestigious distinctions: Diamond Partner, Agentic Automation Fast Track Partner and Award Winner.

“Achieving UiPath Diamond Partner status is a tremendous honor,” said Bill Woodford, senior managing director of Digital Transformation at Auxis, a Grant Thornton company. “It reinforces what clients expect from our automation and advisory teams: the ability to solve real business problems by not just adopting technology, but reimagining how work is designed, executed and scaled. As AI and automation reshape enterprise operations, we are proud to stand with UiPath at the forefront of that transformation - committed to helping our clients turn innovation into measurable business impact.”

The Diamond Partner status builds on Auxis’ decade-long history of recognition for delivering excellence and innovation within the UiPath ecosystem. Auxis earned UiPath’s Agentic Automation Fast Track Partner designation in 2025, joining an elite group of providers recognized as innovation leaders in agentic automation.

Auxis has also been previously recognized as UiPath’s AI Foundational Americas Partner of the Year and was one of the first U.S.-based providers to achieve the platform’s Certified Professional Services accreditation - reflecting service delivering quality in line with UiPath’s delivery criteria and standards.

As a Diamond Partner, Grant Thornton also gains additional advantages that translate to direct client benefits, helping accelerate time to value, lower delivery risk and ensure UiPath-validated capabilities at scale.

“Achieving Diamond Partner status is a powerful validation of the deep expertise Auxis brings to our advisory platform and our long-standing commitment to helping organizations unlock meaningful business value through intelligent automation,” said Tom Puthiyamadam, managing partner for Advisory Services at Grant Thornton Advisors LLC. “This milestone reflects the depth of our expertise, the strength of our partnership with UiPath and the trust our clients place in us to deliver scalable, future-ready solutions. We’re proud to reach this next level and remain focused on driving innovation that helps our clients operate smarter, faster and with greater confidence.”

Amid rising cost pressures, operational complexity, talent gaps and modernization demands, Grant Thornton, powered by Auxis, is uniquely positioned to help thousands of businesses accelerate AI and automation at scale – supported by an expansive client network and track record where more than 90% of new AI and automation customers becoming long-term partners.

A key differentiator is the firm’s integrated onshore and nearshore delivery model, combining cost efficiency with real-time collaboration and deep U.S. business fluency. Supported by a highly skilled team of UiPath-certified AI and automation professionals, this approach allows clients to overcome tech talent shortages in the U.S. while avoiding the complexity that can be associated with traditional offshore automation delivery. Unlike providers focused solely on technical execution, Grant Thornton also stands out with a business-led approach centered on measurable outcomes and enterprise value.

The result is tailored, enterprise-ready innovation that harnesses the advanced agentic automation capabilities of the UiPath platform and other core AI technologies to transform processes and solve complex challenges once considered beyond the reach of automation.

“AI and automation are evolving businesses in real time, and organizations are increasingly turning to UiPath to lead their transformation efforts. Partners like Grant Thornton and Auxis play a critical role in helping customers turn innovation into real business outcomes,” said Rick Brubaker, Regional Vice President of Americas Partner Sales at UiPath. “Diamond Partner status recognizes that partnership and commitment to delivering the highest levels of expertise, scale and customer impact in the UiPath ecosystem. Auxis, a Grant Thornton company, has consistently demonstrated a commitment to being a leader in enterprise automation, and we’re proud to congratulate them on this well-earned milestone.”
