  "safe_answer": "Start with a no-customer-data owner evidence review: map every request source, dispatch owner, technician status, parts or access blocker, customer update, quote follow-up owner and stop-before-automation gate. AICS should be positioned as the evidence-before-FSM/CRM/AI layer that helps leaders see what is safe to automate before buying more software or advertising, not as a replacement for field service management systems, dispatch teams, safety procedures, legal advice or qualified operational judgement.",
