Robotics in manufacturing

How to build resilience into a robotics reliant organisation 

If manufacturers are coming to rely on robotics, shouldn’t we consider the implications for our own organisational resilience?

In this paper, Inoni's Managing Director John Robinson discusses the effect that a reliance on robotics has on an organisation's resilience. He proposes 10 ways to reduce the impact of any robotics downtime.

"Until robots are somehow commoditised or cheap enough for us to hold duplicates in storage, we must wait in line and tolerate a long lead time. This represents a source of enterprise risk that will be familiar to most heavily invested automated manufacturers."
