About 45% of the work in Locate stock 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 to roll up, the digital scalar is derived directly from the process name 'Locate stock' and its manufacturing industry context. Locating inventory inherently requires querying digital ERP or warehouse management systems, but culminates in the physical navigation and verification of parts on the facility floor, making this a balanced hybrid capability.
