The bottom line

Roughly 85% of the work in Review and approve capital projects and fixed-asset acquisitions 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 score relies entirely on the APQC lens 'Manage fixed-asset project accounting' and the process description. Activities like 'Evaluating and supporting capital investments' and 'Secure approvals' are entirely information-based knowledge tasks, typically performed via enterprise resource planning (ERP) software and communications tools, placing this process firmly in the digital band.
