The bottom line

Roughly 85% of the work in Request materials 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: With no child occupations seeded, this evaluation relies entirely on the process name 'Request materials' and its aerospace/shipbuilding industry context. The action of requisitioning materials is fundamentally an information-processing and procurement transaction executed via ERP or data-entry systems; while it supports heavy physical manufacturing, the specific task of requesting is administrative knowledge work, placing it firmly in the digital band.

Business-as-Code

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

Request materials 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 Request materials inherits.

How the work flows

Trigger: A production work order, maintenance schedule, or low inventory alert indicates a need for specific aerospace parts or raw materials.

  1. Identify required materials and specifications from the bill of materials
  2. Verify current inventory levels and allocations
  3. Draft a material requisition with required quantities and delivery dates
  4. Obtain necessary budgetary and technical approvals
  5. Transmit the approved requisition to procurement or warehousing

Outcome: A validated material requisition is approved and routed to procurement or warehouse operations for fulfillment.
