Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Office automation refers to the varied computer machinery and software used to digitally create, collect, store, manipulate, and relay office information needed for accomplishing basic tasks.

In modern offices, data arrives continuously from multiple streams—emails, cloud storage, client portals, and online transactions. Managing this massive explosion of information manually is nearly impossible and prone to errors. Therefore, the increasing digital workload is the most clear and powerful catalyst driving organizations to adopt automation tools (such as software scripts, macros, and AI workflows) to maintain speed, accuracy, and operational efficiency.
