TL;DR: We propose a scalable Enterprise Deep Research architecture that improves decision-ready reports through coverage-driven task decomposition, dependency-guided context control, and evidence-based completion to prevent premature stopping.
Abstract: Enterprise deep research often fails to produce decision-ready reports due to uneven information coverage, context explosion, and premature stopping. We propose a \textit{scalable} Enterprise Deep Research (EDR) architecture to address these failures. Our system (i) decomposes requests into coverage-driven objectives via outline generation with reflection, (ii) localizes context with dependency-guided execution and explicit information sharing, and (iii) enforces evidence-based completion criteria so agents iteratively collect information until sufficiency conditions are met. We evaluate on an internal sales-enablement task and the public DeepResearch Bench benchmark, where our proposed system design achieves the strongest overall performance against competitive deep-research baselines. The results show that dependency-controlled context and explicit evidence sufficiency criteria reduce premature stopping and improve the consistency and depth of enterprise research outputs. We will make our code and permitted data publicly available.
