Demolish and secure
How demolish and secure are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 10% of Demolish and secure is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: With no child occupations seeded, this scalar is derived from the APQC lens prior 'Perform asset abandonment' and the process description. The explicit focus on 'Demolishing and securing asset and resulting parts/debris' indicates inherently manual, physical labor that cannot be performed by software, anchoring the process deeply in the physical band.

How the work flows
Trigger: An asset reaches the end of its lifecycle and a formal demolition plan is approved.
- Establish site safety perimeters and environmental controls
- Disconnect and isolate utilities and hazardous materials
- Execute physical demolition of the asset structure
- Sort and segregate resulting debris and salvageable parts
- Secure and transport materials to designated disposal or recycling facilities
- Conduct final site clearance and inspection
Outcome: The asset is completely dismantled, and all resulting debris and materials are safely secured, disposed of, or staged for recycling.
