Topic Discussed : Benchmarking Profile of Tesla's Autonomous Driving Strategy, 2018

Speakers : Ayan Biswas

Key Takeaways :

Tesla’s fully self-reliant business model has disrupted the conventional ways of doing business, with the traditional automakers relying heavily on third-party suppliers. Since, most of Tesla’s production and R&D for Autonomous, Connectivity, and Electrification are done in-house, the company remains immune to price fluctuations exerted by tier I players. This additionally, allows the company complete freedom to modify components and customize them as per internal requirement. For instance, Tesla is the only automaker to create its own processor chip while traditional OEMs rely on tier Is’ and tier IIs’ expertise. Tesla is ahead of other players by using a centralized E/E architecture, which allows it to offer updates through OTA. Future architectures will see sensor fusion and consolidation of processing power which will be imperative for L5 autonomy. Expect OEMs and Tier I suppliers to continue forming alliances to develop autonomous vehicle development platforms. This will help OEMs to co-develop the autonomy solutions as per requirement, yet following the conventional supply chain

Topic Discussed : CV Telematics Opportunity Analysis by Industry, EU and NA, Forecast to 2025

Speaker : Mugundhan Deenadayalan

Key Takeaways: 

1)Petroleum & Chemical Industry 

Fleets operating in the petroleum & chemical Industry in North America are expected to see almost 100% penetration in telematics solution due to the compulsory ELD Mandate for hazmat placarded vehicles. 

2)Food & Beverage Industry 

The food & beverage haulage industry is expected to see a growth of 22% and 8.3% in telematics adoption in North America and Europe respectively. This is fueled by the rise in trailer telematics , especially trailer status and temperature management. 

3)Cross - Integration via marketplace or app-store

Telematics Service Providers are expected to fill the gaps in their FMS portfolio for specific industries by integrating solutions from other solution providers via an app-store like feature

Topic Discussed : Impact of Autonomous Trucks on Telematics Services

Speaker : Mugundhan Deenadayalan

Key Takeaways: 

1)Truck drivers will become their truck’s own operating managers. Telematics Service Providers will increasingly concentrate on vehicle and fleet management related services in the next three decades. Though not completely wiped out, driver related services will start its downward graph once Level 3 or above trucks come into operation.

2)Trucks are going to be huge data oceans and are going to generate tonnes of data points. These data are going to need proper utilization and protection in an efficient and effective way. Data Analytics will be the next big thing once autonomous sets in. TSPs should align their priorities and expand into innovative portfolio. 

3)Commercial trucking industry will be the first industry to put autonomous driving to use rather than the commonly anticipated passenger car industry. Autonomous trucks will majorly drive only on highways between designated points. TSPs should focus on long-haul value added solutions relating to fuel stations, truck stops, tool stations, weighing stations etc.

Topic Discussed : Global Trade Wars Impact

Speaker : Neha Anna Thomas

Key Takeaways: 

Trade wars roiled the global economy in 2018, with businesses having to cope with significantly higher import costs. Apart from US-China trade wars that took center stage, other exporting nations were also directly affected by the US’s blanket additional tariffs on products such as steel, aluminum, and washing machines. 

The US and China are currently in the midst of a truce period, with the US holding off on imposing further tariffs on China at this time. All additional tariffs from 2018 however continue to remain in effect.

Frost & Sullivan’s latest research on global trade wars examines trade war scenarios, impact on economy and industry, as well as mitigation strategies. Businesses can leverage this research to stay on top of trade war developments, gain forward looking insights, and accordingly fine-tune strategic planning capabilities. 

On that note, I hope you enjoyed this session.
