Manage asset end-of-life
How manage asset end-of-life are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 20% of Manage asset end-of-life 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 score derives from the process description and anchored industries. The core value-producing steps are highly physical ('decommissioning, disassembly, recycling') and operate heavily in hands-on sectors like Waste Management and Agriculture. While there is a digital orchestration component ('tracking and reporting' for compliance), the actual disposition of assets requires manual labor, placing this in the physical band.
