Increase in Use of Robotics and Automation in the Retail Industry
At present, the market is filled with research and adoption of numerous automation techniques to increase productivity, and accuracy, and eliminate human errors and for safety. Smart retail is considered to be one of the advancements in automatic systems as it provides innovative solutions in the direction of retail automation for consumer experience enhancement.
Increased Maintenance Cost
Smart retail devices enable fast, reliable & precise control, effective production, and increased delivery reliability. However, it incurs high investment in maintenance, which is essential to help the technology enter new markets. The system enables flexibility to inspect multiple products on the same smart camera, which is often difficult.
Technological Advancement in Real-Time Data Analytics
In the current IT-dominant world, people are moving toward automation-based solutions and services. This has led to increased focus on IoT-based devices, real-time data analytics, and AI due to their innovative and advanced applications. Real-time data analytics provides a common network for successful information transfer.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 crisis is creating uncertainty in the stock market due to an immense slowdown in the supply chain of various businesses, falling business confidence, and increasing panic among the customer segments. The overall impact of the pandemic is impacting the production process of several industries, including semiconductors, electronics, and others. Trade barriers are further constraining the demand and supply outlook. As the governments of different countries have already declared total lockdown and temporary shutdown of industries, the overall production process has been adversely affected.
COVID-19 is having a large impact on both consumers and the economy. Electronics manufacturing hubs have been temporarily shut down to limit the COVID-19 spread among individuals. This has majorly affected the supply chain of the semiconductor market by creating shortages of materials, components, and finished goods. Lack of business continuity has ensured significant negative impacts on shareholder returns and revenue, which are expected to create financial disruptions in the smart retail devices industry.
To stimulate the local economy, several governments have already announced subsidies and incentives, which vary by region. For instance, China declared extended state subsidies and tax breaks for consumers purchasing new electric vehicles. In addition, the U.S. has reduced fuel-efficiency standards for automakers. Retail companies are expected to track such regional variation, as it may affect the demand patterns of consumers and anticipate government evolution.
However, the COVID-19 crisis is expected to accelerate automation and the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies. Remote manufacturing, diagnostics, and maintenance could all become permanent features. If that occurs, smart retail companies might become smart workspaces, with technologies that facilitate remote work for most of the employees. The companies are also expected to adopt and encourage a hybrid model in their manufacturing processes in which a certain number of employees work remotely and the rest remain on site. The efficiencies gained through such changes as well as their start-up costs could influence future smart retail device revenues.
