Calculate indirect costs
How calculate indirect costs are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Roughly 85% of the work in Calculate indirect costs is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.
Why: With no seeded child occupations available, the scalar is derived entirely from the process name 'Calculate indirect costs'. Financial calculation, overhead tracking, and cost allocation are pure information-transformation and accounting activities that run in software, placing this firmly in the digital band.

How the work flows
Trigger: A periodic financial close cycle or project cost reporting schedule initiates the need to allocate shared expenses.
- Identify indirect cost pools for the accounting period
- Aggregate incurred indirect expenses such as facilities, administration, and IT
- Determine the allocation bases like direct labor hours or material costs
- Calculate the indirect cost rates for each specific pool
- Apply the calculated rates to the allocation bases of active projects and contracts
- Record the final indirect cost allocations in the financial system
Outcome: Shared expenses are accurately pooled, calculated, and allocated to specific cost centers, projects, or defense contracts.
