The bottom line

Roughly 90% of the work in Evaluate IP acquisition options 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 scalar is derived from the PCF category 'Define the business concept and long-term vision' and the process description of evaluating intellectual property, cost, and risk. These are entirely analytical, information-processing tasks—such as financial modeling, legal review, and strategic planning—with no physical constraints, placing the work squarely in the digital band.
