The bottom line

Roughly 85% of the work in Certify and validate suppliers 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: No child occupations are seeded for this process, so the score is derived from the PCF top-level lens 'Procure materials and services' and the process description 'Validating the supply sources, and provide certification'. Validating suppliers and issuing certifications is overwhelmingly an information-transformation task involving document review, credential checking, and compliance tracking, placing it firmly in the digital band.
