The bottom line

Roughly 85% of the work in Clarify purchasing requirements 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 occupation children, this composite's scalar is derived from its PCF lens ('Procure materials and services') and its process description ('Defining the purchasing requirements', 'Create a specific quotation'). Because the process focuses entirely on specifying inventory and generating documentation rather than handling physical goods, the value-producing work is pure information transformation, yielding a strongly digital scalar.
