The global internet of
things in warehouse management market
is anticipated to reach USD 19.06
billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.
Increasing adoption of Goods-to Person (GTP) technology in warehouses is
expected to drive the growth.
The automotive & transportation industry
is amongst the most exposed verticals to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and is
currently amidst unprecedented uncertainty. COVID-19 is expected to have a
significant impact on the supply chain and product demand in the automotive
sector. The industry's concern has moved on from being centered on supply chain
disruption from China to the overall slump in demand for automotive products.
The demand for commercial vehicles is expected to plummet with the shutdown of
all non-essential services. Furthermore, changes in consumer buying behavior
owing to uncertainty surrounding the pandemic may have serious implications on
the near future growth of the industry. Meanwhile, liquidity shortfall and cash
crunch have already impacted the sales of fleet operators, which is further
expected to widen over the next few months. We are continuously monitoring the
COVID-19 pandemic, and assessing its impact on the growth of the automotive
& transportation industry. The report will account for Covid19 as a key
market contributor.
Telematics plays a major role in
developing innovative solutions for fleet management. The increasing use of
fleet management services by transport operators is anticipated to propel the
telematics market demand. The adoption of telematics systems is expected to aid
companies in reducing their fuel expenses and number of empty of runs.
IoT gateways provide secured channels
to transmit data. The gateways operate as platforms for applications that
process data. IoT also performs functions such as protocol translation, device
connectivity, security, updating, and data filtering. The growing penetration
of cloud-based platforms is likely to positively impact the market demand over
the projected period.

machine-to-machine applications, including video surveillance, smart meters,
transportation, health monitoring, and asset tracking, is anticipated to drive
the connected device market demand. The IoT-enabled applications are
anticipated to revolutionize the digital consumer experience. Additionally, the
increasing telematics-related regulations by various governments are expected
to propel the demand for connected trucks and enhance the productivities of the
warehouse operations.
The
growing automation in warehouse is changing the traditional industry
operations, enabling companies to maximize their throughput. Order accuracy can
beachieved through automated Materials Handling (MH) equipment, robotics
applications, and high-speed conveyor systems.
Based
on the solution, the industry has been segmented into warehouse automation,
workforce management, inventory management, electronic data interchange (EDI),
and tracking. The warehouse automation solution is anticipated to witness high
growth rate over the forecast period.
The
automated warehousing systems increase the storage capacity by 400% compared to
the traditional forklift operations. Additionally, automation also helps to
reduce the storage space in the warehouse that can be used for other activities
such as packagingand value-added services.
