The bottom line

Roughly 90% of the work in Develop baseline forecasts 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 child occupations seeded, this score is derived from the process description and its PCF lens 'Manage service delivery resources'. The core tasks—estimating demand using 'historical data, analysis of the market environment, and external data'—represent pure information transformation and statistical analysis. This is intrinsically knowledge work that runs entirely within software or an agent's code path, placing it firmly in the high digital band.

How the work flows

Trigger: The start of a scheduled planning cycle or the close of a prior operational period initiates the baseline forecasting process.

  1. Extract historical demand and transaction data
  2. Gather external market indicators and macroeconomic trends
  3. Cleanse data to remove historical anomalies and outliers
  4. Execute statistical forecasting algorithms to project future demand
  5. Review statistical outputs and adjust for known baseline shifts
  6. Publish the baseline forecast to organizational planning systems

Outcome: A finalized baseline demand forecast is generated and distributed to guide operational, financial, and supply chain planning.
