Define processes
How define processes are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Roughly 85% of the work in Define processes 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: Since no child occupations are seeded, the scalar is derived from the APQC lens prior 'Manage business processes' and the description noting activities to 'Scope, analyze, map, and publish processes'. This entails pure information transformation, analytical mapping, and documentation, placing the value-producing work firmly in the digital band.

How the work flows
