Many tasks, such as documentation, reporting, and monitoring, are routine or can be significantly augmented by AI tools, raising the automation risk to a medium level. However, stakeholder engagement and change management require human judgment and interpersonal skills, which resist full automation. The AI exposure score is high due to the heavy reliance on digital tools and the suitability of GenAI for drafting, analyzing, and training tasks.
