The bottom line

About 50% of the work in Obtain facts and evidence 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: Without seeded occupational children, this score relies entirely on the APQC process name 'Obtain facts and evidence' and its government context. Gathering evidence typically blends digital information retrieval (reviewing databases and electronic records) with hands-on or human-facing tasks (field inspections, physical evidence handling, or in-person interviews), warranting a band-center hybrid scalar.
