The bottom line

About 50% of the work in Perform quality assurance 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 child occupations seeded, the score is derived from the process name 'Perform quality assurance' within the context of 'Petroleum Refineries'. This process requires a blend of physical product sampling or lab testing alongside digital data analysis, documentation, and compliance tracking, landing it at a band-center hybrid score.

Business-as-Code

Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.

Perform quality assurance sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Perform quality assurance inherits.

How the work flows

Trigger: A physical sample is drawn from a refining unit or storage tank, or an inline analyzer transmits scheduled process data.

  1. Extract physical samples from process streams, storage tanks, or transport vessels
  2. Conduct laboratory analyses for chemical composition and physical properties
  3. Compare test results against regulatory and customer specifications
  4. Validate calibration and accuracy of inline and laboratory testing equipment
  5. Issue Certificates of Analysis for on-spec petroleum products
  6. Divert off-spec batches for chemical adjustment or reprocessing

Outcome: The petroleum product is validated against specifications, resulting in a formal certification for release or a directive to reprocess.
