The 2026 digital-transformation RFP that includes agentic AI procurement extends the existing 60-question RFP playbook (/the-enterprise-agentic-ai-rfp-60-questions/, 38 Copilot citations) with 15 UX assessment questions across five categories (interaction modes; error-handling and confidence-communication; accessibility against WCAG 2.2 + Section 508 + EN 301 549 + assistive-technology compatibility; multi-user and cross-device continuity; design-system extensibility), producing a 75-question total RFP that the buying committee uses with separate reviewer assignments (UX team plus accessibility office plus design-system stewards review the UX section); the procurement-mature pattern asks the vendor to demonstrate the answers to error-handling, accessibility, continuity, and extensibility questions rather than describe them, surfacing the gaps between strategic narrative and product capability before the MSA negotiation.
Anchored on (a) the existing /the-enterprise-agentic-ai-rfp-60-questions/ playbook the 15 UX questions extend (38 Copilot citations in 3-month window ending 25 May 2026); (b) WCAG 2.2 (latest W3C accessibility recommendation), Section 508 (federal-civilian US accessibility), EN 301 549 (EU accessibility standard); (c) procurement-team observation of UX-dimension gaps in 2025-2026 agentic AI vendor RFPs (the dimension most often surfacing at year-one user-adoption review rather than at RFP). The 15 specific questions are derived from standard enterprise UX-procurement-practice extended to the agentic AI vendor structure plus the 2026 EU AI Act Articles 13 (transparency) and 14 (human oversight) requirements; the question set is not from a published external reference (this is procurement-team practice synthesised into a checklist). 60-day review cadence (26 Jul 2026). Trigger conditions: (1) EU AI Act implementing acts shipping mandatory technical standards on agent-user interaction (Article 13 transparency, Article 14 human oversight) would standardise some of the question set and warrant a refresh moving claim toward Partial; (2) WCAG 3.0 publication and adoption by major customer-side procurement teams would change accessibility-question structure; (3) major vendor announcing a UX-specific certification or audit framework (UX equivalent of SOC 2) would warrant adding a certification question; (4) published independent benchmark of agentic AI vendors against UX assessment framework would harden or weaken the question set the existing playbook does not yet cover. Sibling /the-enterprise-agentic-ai-rfp-60-questions/ is primary playbook (38 citations); AM-167 covers procurement-clause instruments translating question-set output into contractually enforceable MSA terms; AM-181 covers strategic-narrative diligence checklist operating in parallel with RFP question set.

About this register
The Reporting register tracks claims published from articles addressed to senior enterprise IT leaders — CIOs, IT directors, heads of platform. Claims are reviewed on a 30–90 day cadence; each review either reaffirms the claim, marks one substantive part as Partial, or marks it Not holding once the underlying evidence has been overtaken.

URL state changed. The /the-agentic-ai-revolution-real-world-success-stories-and-strategic-insights-from-2024-2025/ slug now serves a deliberately rewritten retrospective (claimId AM-130, "Agentic AI 2024-2025 retrospective", published 04 May 2026) against audited primary sources. The 28 Apr 2026 redirect to /retractions/ has been lifted to allow that. AM-002 the claim remains Not holding — the original $3.50/dollar + 70% failure-rate framing was withdrawn and is not restored. AM-130 is a separate claim with its own evidence chain. Readers arriving at /holding/AM-002 see the withdrawal here; the article link surfaces the new piece at the URL the original lived at, with this entry as the audit trail.

Klarna walk-back primary-source upgrade — added Siemiatkowski verbatim quotes via Bloomberg-cited-by-Fortune (9 May 2025) and the Uber-style freelance hiring detail via Entrepreneur. Closes the highest-priority evidence gap from the source dossier.

Initial publication 29 Apr 2026 — the first Quarterly Claim Review Bulletin. The claim itself is recursive: it asserts that the bulletin will ship quarterly, and the next review (30 Jul 2026) tests whether the Q3 bulletin actually appeared. Status starts as 'up' because the claim is currently true (the Q2 bulletin shipped). The verdict at end of July 2026 will move to Holding, Partial (bulletin shipped but on a delayed cadence), or Not holding (no bulletin shipped).
