Ships require a constant energy supply for propulsion and other onboard systems. Fuel requirements and consumption are essential parameters to factor in at the design phase. Adopting alternative fuels will raise important considerations as to the operating profile and architecture of the ship and the need to train crews in their safe storage and use, for instance.

The Industrial Internet of Things is shaking up the world of manufacturing and all of its supply chains. Thanks to IoT devices and the steady rollout of 5G connectivity, companies have an unprecedented look into the health of the shop floor, can monitor for shipping-disruptive weather conditions, and can plan maintenance to ensure the least amount of downtime. These sensors are an absolute revolution, but there’s a dark side to the sensors as well. Manufacturers must consider new cybersecurity concerns as each new IoT device represents a potential weak point in the company’s network. Each device presents a tempting target for hackers who are looking to break into the network, but focusing on the individual devices is the wrong answer to the problem. The solution should be a secure network using a zero-trust model.

There are almost no supply chains left unbruised right now, as multiple waves of hard-hitting disruptions challenged even the most experienced of operators. We are, by now, completely aware of the fissures in supply chains that can rapidly open into chasms. The next big question is how to move on and create the supply chain of the future that is resilient against shocks? The answer lies in strengthening the shared data links across supply chains, and then turning this information into insights that can then be acted upon rapidly and decisively. The inherent complexity of most modern supply chains means that this is no easy task and that human operators need help in moving towards this goal, especially as the data flows are only going to increase with the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT).

Global climate change mitigation policies have been the overriding driver of electrification in the automotive industry, with emission regulations compelling automotive OEMs to produce and sell more low- and zero-emission vehicles. However, while regulations are pushing electrification, carmakers’ ability to transition manufacturing at scale will depend on planning, efficiency and availability in the supply chain, especially for lithium-ion batteries.

Every day, perishable goods make their way across domestic, international, and intercontinental routes, through an elaborate supply chain from point of harvest to retail to fulfil worldwide consumption needs. These consumable and non-consumable products, such as meats, fish, flowers need to be handled and transported in a fast and reliable manner to ensure shipment integrity and minimize any losses. This is largely made possible by air transport which facilitates the movement of perishables across the world. Though proven to be robust, perishable transport has succumbed to inevitable pressures inflicted on the supply chain by the pandemic, such as capacity constraints and transport restrictions which significantly impact food loss and waste.

The value of automation across internal, supply chain, and customer workstreams is also well accepted. Automation improves productivity, reduces cost, and increases margin. Artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), robotic process automation (RPA), and machine learning (ML) are examples of technology used throughout business to transform workflows and business experiences.
