aiqbench analysis
EnterpriseBench addresses a critical gap in AI evaluation by shifting focus from static knowledge retrieval to dynamic, long-horizon decision-making within realistic enterprise scenarios. The benchmark introduces complex interactive settings like supply-chain simulations and digital twins, revealing that current LLM agents still struggle with stability and reliability when facing uncertainty and multi-turn feedback loops. This work provides a necessary roadmap for advancing agent capabilities beyond simple QA tasks toward genuine strategic reasoning in professional environments.
EnterpriseBench: Benchmarking LLM Agents on Enterprise-Level Strategic Reasoning and Decision-Making
arXiv:2609.37658v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents are increasingly expected to support enterprise workflows, where tasks often involve missing information, uncertainty, feedback, and long-term trade-offs. However, existing enterprise and financial benchmarks mainly test static capabilities such as information extraction, numerical calculation, domain knowledge, and financial QA, leaving interactive and long-horizon decision-making underexplored. To bridge this gap, we introduce EnterpriseBench, a benchmark that evaluates LLM agents across this spectrum, from static question answering to dynamic decision-making. Specifically, EnterpriseBench reorganizes existing enterprise and financial QA datasets into a unified foundational suite annotated by capability and difficulty, and introduces three professional interactive settings: Consulting, based on management-consulting-style business cases for client problem diagnosis through multi-turn information seeking; the Beer Game, adapted from a classic supply-chain management simulation for inventory control under delayed feedback; and Enterprise Digital Twin, a project-based business simulator for workforce, risk, and project planning. Experiments with nine agent methods under four backbone models show that current agents have not yet achieved stable, comprehensive, and cross-task reliability in enterprise scenarios. These results show that EnterpriseBench provides a practical benchmark for evaluating LLM agents in realistic enterprise strategic reasoning and decision-making.
