Develop packaging
How develop packaging are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
About 50% of the work in Develop packaging 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 seeded child occupations or a broader top-level APQC category lens provided, the scalar relies on the process name and its consumer electronics manufacturing context. 'Develop packaging' is inherently a hybrid activity that blends digital knowledge work like CAD and graphic design with the physical realities of material testing and prototyping, landing it at a band-center hybrid score.

Business-as-Code
Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.
Develop packaging 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 Develop packaging inherits.

How the work flows
Trigger: A new hardware product reaches the late-stage engineering phase or an existing product requires a packaging refresh.
- Analyze product dimensions, weight, and fragility to determine structural requirements
- Design packaging graphics, structural inserts, and exterior branding
- Select packaging materials balancing cost, sustainability, and protection
- Build and test physical prototypes for drop, vibration, and thermal resilience
- Verify compliance labels, barcodes, and regional regulatory markings
- Finalize the packaging Bill of Materials and release specifications to vendors
Outcome: Production-ready packaging specifications, artwork files, and bills of materials are released to suppliers.
