The bottom line

About 55% of the work in Certify capabilities is information-shaped and increasingly AI-deliverable, with the rest a hybrid of judgment and hands-on work. The automation frontier runs straight through the middle of this role.

Why: With no child occupations seeded, I relied on the process description: 'Inspecting maintenance capabilities' for aircraft by regulatory authorities. This work requires a mix of on-site physical inspections of maintenance facilities and equipment, balanced with heavy digital documentation, auditing, and compliance reporting, placing it solidly in the hybrid band.

Business-as-Code

Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.

Certify capabilities sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Certify capabilities inherits.

How the work flows

Trigger: A maintenance organization submits a certification application to a regulatory authority for specific aircraft types.

  1. Compile documentation of tooling, personnel qualifications, and quality systems
  2. Submit certification application to the regulatory authority
  3. Facilitate regulatory inspection of maintenance facilities and procedures
  4. Resolve any non-conformances identified during the inspection
  5. Receive final maintenance capability certification

Outcome: The regulatory authority issues a formal certificate authorizing the company to provide maintenance services for the specified aircraft.
