The trucking industry is one of the most vital sectors of the US economy, transporting more than 65% of the nation's consumable goods¹. However, it also faces many challenges, such as labor shortages, rising costs, environmental regulations, and customer demands for faster and more reliable deliveries.
Automation is not about self-driving trucks, although they certainly could be a big part of it. Automation also encompasses other aspects of the supply chain, such as warehousing, intermodal transportation, final mile delivery, and data analytics. These options can help improve efficiency, safety, sustainability, and customer satisfaction in the trucking industry.
According to a reseach:
Automation can reduce the operating costs of trucking by about 45%, saving the US for-hire trucking industry between $85 billion and $125 billion¹. Automation can also increase the utilization of trucks, reduce fuel consumption and emissions, enhance driver productivity and retention, and enable new business models and services.
Benefits:
The benefits of automation are not only for the trucking industry itself, but also for the customers and society at large. Automation can lower the prices of consumer goods, improve the quality and speed of deliveries, reduce traffic congestion and accidents, and create new jobs and opportunities in related fields.
However, automation also comes with some uncertainties and challenges. For instance:
These questions require careful analysis and strategic planning by all parties involved.
