   A company has two processes under consideration for automation. Process X is stable, runs 200 times per day, but has a complex exception path that requires human approval in 20% of cases. Process Y is less stable, runs 50 times per day, but has no exception paths. The team has limited resources for automation development. Which process should be prioritized?

   • AProcess X, because its high frequency and stability outweigh the complexity of the exception path, which can be automated to route to human approval.
   • BNeither process, because both have drawbacks that make automation infeasible.
   • CBoth processes equally, because both are stable and have automation potential.
   • DProcess Y, because it has no exception paths, making it simpler to automate with limited resources.
