Which tasks are exposed

Risk applies to individual tasks—not to a person or an entire occupation.

Task	Risk
Diagnostics using fault codes and telemetry	29%
Planning scheduled maintenance	33%
Physical repair of a non-standard fault	18%
Calculating quantities, estimates and material needs	35%
Preparing drawings and BIM models	27%
Scheduling and monitoring deviations	25%
Repeatable operations on a prepared site	40%
Handling unexpected site conditions	19%

What the score means

The score reflects process repeatability, data digitization, automated verification, the physical environment and the economic incentive to deploy technology.

The index reflects potential technology exposure of occupational tasks and is not the probability that a particular person will lose their job.

AI exposure

The share of cognitive, textual, visual or analytical work that current AI systems can technically assist with or perform.

17%

Robotics

The extent to which robots, autonomous machinery and computer vision can perform physical operations in a prepared environment.

32%

Routine work

The share of operations that repeat, follow stable rules and produce a predictable result.

34%

Digitalization

How much of the input, workflow and output already exists in digital form.

29%

Business incentive

The economic incentive to automate based on task volume, labor cost, frequency and implementation cost.

30%

Human moat

Protection created by accountability, trust, empathy, licensing, negotiation and unpredictable real-world environments.

83%

Task map

AI replaces ↔ AI augments

Each task is positioned by AI capability and the degree of human involvement still required.

Why technology can change this work

predictive diagnostics identify likely failure points in advance
BIM and digital twins automate parts of design and control
computer vision tracks defects and progress
robots gradually take repetitive tasks on prepared sites

What protects the occupation

physical diagnosis, repair and post-intervention equipment validation
unpredictable real-site conditions
a large share of value comes from human judgement, trust or personal accountability
responsibility for people and structural safety
hands-on adaptation and contractor coordination
