A device receives a command to identify an automation evaluation for a role, determines tasks of the role based on data relating to the role, and determines activities for the tasks based on the data relating to the role. The device determines one or more automation scores, which correspond to a suitability for automation of the activities, based on a set of characteristics of the activities and based on the data relating to the role. The automation scores are determined using a machine learning model to parse natural language descriptions of the activities and score parsed portions of the natural language descriptions. The device generates, for the role, an aggregate automation score based on the automation scores, determines the automation evaluation for the role based on the aggregate automation score and characteristics of an entity associated with the role, and performs an action relating to the automation evaluation.
