The world is walking out of the shadow of the COVID-19 lockdown. However, the pandemic has long-lasting side effects on the automotive industry. In the past 18 months, the supply chain has seen several disruptions that worsened as new geopolitical events occurred. Rising material prices are hitting supplies, while logistics costs remain high, and the availability of major components such as semiconductors remains far below requirements. Moreover, the acceleration of electrification adds a layer of difficulty. Electric vehicles require many more semiconductors and rare earth materials, while the supply is still in shortage. Lately, China’s supply chain was hit with lockdowns, slowing down raw material processing and component deliveries that are critical to the automotive industry from a global perspective

What is lights-out warehousing? The simple answer is a facility without people. One that relies entirely on automated equipment, to the point that no manual touches are necessary. With no employees required on the floor, operations do not need to turn the lights on, hence the term “lights-out warehousing.”
Imagine that new connected equipment has turned up at your facility. You’ve selected it very carefully through a rigorous procurement process, no doubt considering its excellent security certifications. You are happy. You are looking forward to putting it to work. It is natural to accept it at face value.

It’s probably too strong to say the logo on the side of the truck is now more important than the logo on the side of the box. But it’s certainly not overstating things to say that consumers demand fast, reliable, free (in many cases) shipping, with easily accessible updates. In one 2021 survey, 47% of consumers said they would consider abandoning a retailer after a single bad shipping experience.

Manufacturers, suppliers, and logistics companies are finding themselves at an interesting intersection today. Digital transformation, forcefully propelled atop any executive agendas by COVID-19, is no longer a trend or a hype. With more pressure from stakeholders, customers, and competitors, companies need to act fast and decidedly to kickstart their smart factory roadmap.

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).
