Manage capacity utilization
How manage capacity utilization are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Roughly 85% of the work in Manage capacity utilization 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: The lens places this process under 'Plan for and align supply chain resources'. The process description, 'Determining the capacity utilization' by calculating the relationship between output and potential output, describes purely analytical and mathematical knowledge work. While the underlying production assets are physical, calculating and planning their utilization is highly digital, data-driven work performed in software.

How the work flows
Trigger: A regular operational review cycle initiates or a significant change in demand requires an assessment of available production resources.
- Collect current production requirements and demand forecasts
- Assess available operating hours, equipment, and workforce availability
- Calculate theoretical maximum productive capacity
- Measure actual output against the theoretical maximum to determine utilization rate
- Identify operational bottlenecks or areas of idle capacity
- Reallocate resources or adjust schedules to optimize utilization
Outcome: Management establishes an accurate baseline of current capacity utilization and reallocates resources to maximize productive output.
