Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the major North American vehicle manufacturers had been slowly embracing the move to electric vehicles and had been selective in embracing Industry 4.0/smart manufacturing.
The impact of the pandemic on supply chains, as well as consumers’ rapidly shifting expectations around sustainability, has resulted in a global reset for the industry.

This whitepaper is based on a North American survey, completed in early 2021. It explores:

The technical challenges associated with the introduction of smart manufacturing.
Shifts in the supply chain, as innovation is embraced to deliver an increasing portfolio of electric vehicles (EV) over the next five years.
