Disrupt with Confidence

Devices within and around the modern home are becoming smarter as they evolve to meet the needs of consumers. These days a refrigerator can play music, check the weather, give you recipe ideas and even order groceries. Equipped with cameras, fridges allow you to peek inside to see what you need from the grocery store. Your washing machine can suggest the best cycle, wash clothes at the time that’s most convenient and alert you if there are issues. Products across a diverse range of categories from home gym equipment to pizza ovens and grills are all becoming smarter, with improved connectivity, processing power and embedded AI. 

Yet to profit from this evolution, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) must confront new and difficult technology, manufacturing and supply chain challenges.

Today’s smart home innovators must consider:

• Connectivity — WiFi, Bluetooth® wireless technology, powerline, Ethernet and near field communication
• Sensor capabilities — humidity, light, proximity, temperature, and pressure
• Sustainability — recyclability, refurbishment, and and waste control
• Ease-of-use — immediate usability, accessibility and error tolerance
• Supply Chain Resilience – Network optimization that reduces complexity and improves profitability
