Opinion: McKinsey 2022 Global Survey on Automation

Per McKinsey & Company’s 2022 Global Survey, the share of companies adopting automation technology is climbing. However, few companies have achieved automation’s full potential.

Automation leaders make large changes to their processes/platforms, often building processes from scratch, are more likely to be driven by an interest in improving customer/employee experiences, and fill automation-related skills gaps. Key automation technologies adopted include intelligent document management, robotic process automation and business process/case management platforms. Companies report multiple benefits including cost savings and better customer satisfaction, quality control and employee experience.

MOSIMTEC is often asked to evaluate automation initiatives and develop control algorithms, test sequencing rules and stress-test the “whole system’ under various demand profiles to predict performance and identify risks/bottlenecks. Using simulation modeling to compare an autonomous mobile robot system versus adding labor while factoring in capacity, productivity, downtime, charging time, labor cost, etc. is critical to know if robots are the right fit. MOSIMTEC data scientists/industrial engineers can help you automate and future-proof your business.
