According to the latest report from Baker Tilly Tech M&amp;A Advisors, updated in March 2026, the sector combines traditional RPA, Intelligent Automation, autonomous AI agents (Agentic AI), BOAT platforms and Process Mining, and is already experiencing a cycle of mergers and acquisitions driven by <em>buy-and-build<\/em> strategies backed by private equity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three figures sum up the scale of the change: <strong>89% of Spanish executives<\/strong> plan to implement autonomous AI agents in their business processes; <strong>Cloud-native deployment already accounts for 64%<\/strong> of the Spanish RPA market; and the most significant transaction of the period\u2014the sale of Ayesa\u2019s technology division\u2014was worth <strong>\u20ac480 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"El_mercado_de_automatizacion_RPA_en_Espana_integra_RPA_IA_y_Agentic_AI\"><\/span>The RPA automation market in Spain combines RPA, AI and Agentic AI<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RPA automation market in Spain covers the full spectrum of technologies deployed across the business sector: from traditional RPA, which focuses on structured and repetitive tasks, to Intelligent Automation with cognitive capabilities, autonomous AI agents (Agentic AI) capable of probabilistic reasoning, BOAT (Business Orchestration and Automation Technologies) platforms, and process mining tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Physical industrial automation systems and manufacturing robotics are excluded from this analysis, as they constitute an adjacent market with its own M&amp;A dynamics. This broad scope is relevant for any technology company in the sector: buyers are no longer looking solely for \u2018RPA tools\u2019, but for <strong>hyperautomation platforms<\/strong> capable of covering complete end-to-end processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Seis_tendencias_que_estan_transformando_el_sector_RPA_en_Espana\"><\/span>Six trends that are transforming the RPA sector in Spain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The shift from deterministic bots to systems capable of autonomous decision-making is redefining which assets are attractive to strategic or financial buyers. These are the six trends shaping the market in 2025\u20132026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"El_auge_del_Agentic_AI_marca_la_transicion_hacia_la_automatizacion_autonoma\"><\/span>The rise of Agentic AI marks the transition towards autonomous automation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most disruptive transformation in the sector is the shift from deterministic bots, which follow rigid instructions, towards <strong>AI agents capable of probabilistic reasoning and autonomous decision-making<\/strong>. In Spain, 89% of executives plan to implement AI agents in their business processes by 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018Computer Use\u2019 technologies enable these agents to interact with graphical interfaces in a manner similar to that of a human, significantly reducing the maintenance burden associated with UI updates \u2013 one of the biggest hidden costs of traditional RPA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"El_modelo_cloud_y_SaaS_se_convierte_en_el_estandar_del_RPA_espanol\"><\/span>The cloud and SaaS model is becoming the standard for RPA in Spain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El despliegue <strong>Cloud-native deployment already accounts for 64%<\/strong> of the Spanish RPA market, and the RPA-as-a-Service (RPAaaS) model is preferred by 62% of SMEs. The opening of local regions by the major hyperscalers, such as Microsoft\u2019s first Spanish region in 2024, has removed the data sovereignty barriers that were holding back adoption in regulated sectors such as banking and healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For buyers, this shifts the focus of valuation towards recurring revenue models (ARR) and SaaS contracts, as opposed to traditional on-premises licensing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Las_plataformas_BOAT_impulsan_la_hiperautomatizacion_end-to-end\"><\/span>BOAT platforms drive end-to-end hyper-automation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The convergence of RPA with Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) tools, low-code development and Business Process Management (BPM) has given rise to BOAT platforms that offer end-to-end orchestration of entire processes. In the Spanish insurance sector, this integration already enables up to <strong>70% of customer enquiries<\/strong> to be resolved without human intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Companies that have evolved from \u2018bot providers\u2019 to \u2018orchestration platforms\u2019 present much more attractive acquisition profiles for buy-and-build funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"La_Ley_Crea_y_Crece_obliga_a_digitalizar_el_ciclo_Order-to-Cash\"><\/span>The Crea y Crece Act requires the digitisation of the order-to-cash cycle<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boe.es\/buscar\/act.php?id=BOE-A-2022-15818\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Crea y Crece Act<\/a><\/strong> requires companies with a turnover exceeding \u20ac8 million to issue electronic invoices in a structured format (Facturae XML or EDIFACT). This legislation has made the automation of the \u2018order-to-cash\u2019 cycle an <strong>operational requirement<\/strong>, driving a wave of forced adoption across sectors such as retail, professional services and manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"El_Kit_Digital_democratiza_el_acceso_al_RPA_entre_las_pymes_espanolas\"><\/span>The Digital Kit makes RPA more accessible to Spanish SMEs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Kit Digital<\/strong>programme, funded by NextGenerationEU, has distributed over \u20ac1.9 billion to more than 460,000 businesses, establishing a foundation for digital maturity that has enabled SMEs to access automation tools previously reserved for large corporations.

This gap is forcing companies to adopt <strong>\u2018citizen developer\u2019<\/strong> models and low-code tools that enable non-technical staff to automate routine processes without the need for dedicated programmers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"La_consolidacion_M_A_redefine_el_mapa_del_sector_RPA_espanol\"><\/span>M&amp;A consolidation is reshaping the Spanish RPA sector<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Spanish M&amp;A market for RPA and Automated Intelligence has moved from a volume-driven discovery phase to a <strong>disciplined, value-driven consolidation cycle<\/strong>.
