A Critical Evaluation of the identified themes and how they could affect operational and/or strategic decision making necessary to shape organizations in the next five years
Drones have a very significant role that they play in various sectors in the United Kingdom economy. They are an invention that has been in a position to revolutionize quite a number of significant activities and processes that takes place in the United Kingdom economy. For instance, drones have had the impact of reducing not only the cost but also the risk involved when dealing with oils and gases.They improve at a very high percentage the safety, efficiency as well as the cost of saving. This is so because statistics and logic shows that they have reduced the extent with which an employee is often exposed to certain working conditions that are harsh and could cause possible industrial hazards (Christaller et al, 2012 p.112)
In terms of inspection drones have also had an impact. Through a significant combination of drones and some other traditional techniques drones have really revolutionized the inspection. Wilson, 2018, p.117).Much lesser time and resources are spent in the case where drones are selectively used in inspection than when other ordinary means of inspection are used. With the use if drones, various particular defective areas are identified then fixed by either the drones or maybe the use of some other rope access crews (McKinley, 2016 p.90).There are certain instances with which drone inspection has been seen to very productive. In areas such as gas and pipeline inspection, wildlife monitoring among others drones could play a very essential role in inspections.
Moreover, drones could also be the future in the utility industry. This is in regard to inspection as well as other forms of linear assets the tremendous 360 degree visualization (Grosman, 2016 p.11). In recent years there has been the emergency of a much more complex and sophisticated cloud-based visual assets forms of management systems that have played the role of acting as repositories in the inspection and information storage as far as the use of drones is concerned.
In terms of delivery drones could be the future of delivery. Statistics show that drones could take over delivery by the year 2030. This is so because of the various advantages associated with the use of drones such as increased levels of efficiency, increased levels of customer satisfaction as well as reduced costs of operations (Abbas, Di, Spinelli, 2018 p.323). Statistics also show that more and more logistics and utility companies are investing on drones. The use of drones is greatly preferred because of its unique nature and feature on not just dropping parcels where they want to be dropped but rather their ubiquitous nature in warehousing and also the fact that drones can conduct a real time stock and inventory check.
Robotic machines have really had a very great impact as far as labor requirements are concerned in the United Kingdom economy. There are a number of ways in which robotic machines have influenced the economy (Mason, 2016 p.91).
First and foremost, the rise of robotic machines has led to more job creation than ever in the economy. Quite often it’s seen that robots are taking away jobs but the fact is that robots are actually creating much more jobs but in this case they require much more skilled labor. The point is that robots are replacing low-skilled labor and automating the tasks that these laborers were doing (Tutu, 2017 p.40).This is very evident in various sectors in the economy, in the manufacturing sector for instance, robots perform the tasks of stocking, transporting as well as sorting of materials. What is more important, however, is that in as much as robots replace the low skilled laborers in various industries, this gives workers opportunities to get much more skilled and become competitive in the job market.
Secondly, robotic machines have the ability to increase the productivity rate. Robotic machines are much more productive that human beings. This is in regard to speed as well as efficiency.
What is of more importance, however, is the way in which robotic machines have really played a very great role in the revolution of labor in the entire United Kingdom economy. Much often, there is the combination of human labor and robotic machines (Elibol et al, 2011 p.321).Well, this is a very perfect combination and it results into a much more efficient production. A direct corporation between human labor and robotic machines is really productive. This is so because much often, robots play the role of assisting humans in undertaking various tasks. This has enabled human laborers to avoid various forms of accidents associated with their tasks (Humphries & Huettmann, 2018, p.85). This is so because robotic machines are in a position to foresee human errors because of the sensors that have been incorporated and thus being in a position to avoid any interment danger or hazardous situation at stake (Zakaria, Toh & Kim 2018, p.315).
Statistics show that there has been an increased use of robotic machines by various industrial sectors in the United Kingdom. This is so because of the numerous advantages that this trending theme has. As mentioned by Dorman & Kaufman (2014, p, 88) there are some other advantages associated with the use of robotic machines such as simplification of work to employees. Robotic machines play a very great role in the simplification of tasks to employees. They play the role of relieving human labor from really strenuous tasks. Most importantly, their health and well as safety is really assured in the case where robotic machines are employed (Hu, 2017, p.70).
Just like any other theme that has been discussed earlier, driverless cars would result into an increase in production. Production as far as driverless cars are concerned will be in various ways (Taraska, 2017 p.209).For instance, driverless cars would greatly improve the traffic flow and thus reduce so many cases of accidents. A reduced traffic flow means that less time would be used to commute to work places (Thangavelu et al, 2012, p.513). Moreover, one could also attend to some other important issues such as working in the driverless cars because they do not have to pay attention to the road for traffic.
Although some jobs will be lost, there would be the creation of some other more jobs in the economy once driverless cars are brought into play (Shaw, 2016 p.50). This will greatly transform the economy. In regard to some of the jobs that would be lost once driverless car are bought into play, much fewer traffic police will be needed and so would traffic court administrators. In simpler terms this means that millions and millions of jobs will be lost. Despite the fact that some jobs will be lost, there would be a corresponding influx of totally new jobs.
Another issue that will totally transform the economy once driverless cars are brought into play is that there would be much more space for housing and business in the city centers. This is so because with the driverless cars this means that the areas that were used as parking lots as well as garages will be free for occupancy (Dvorkin, 2013 p.66).
Statistics show that there would be a complete transformation in the insurance industry once driverless cars are brought into play. Moreover, statistics also indicate an increased demand of these driverless cars which presents a future that would be more secure and much safer. The economy will be greatly transformed (Simpson, 2016 p.23).
Recommendations for the course of action that organizations within the broad sector can take to ensure that they are able to manage the effects of these emerging trends effectively
The emerging trends identified and discussed above have various advantages that could greatly benefit the economy when fully exploited (Kamilaris & Prenafeta-Boldú, 2017 p.77). There are some other effects, however, that can greatly cause harm and negative impact on the economy when these emerging themes are not well managed. It is therefore a call to each and every organization that wishes to employ these themes as a result of their various advantages to carefully consider both the advantages as well as their disadvantages (Wadhwa & Salkever, 2017 p.89).
The use of drones for instance, has the ability to result into a cross-industry transformation. Drones can greatly transform organizations in various forms (Ven, 2014, p.67). It is therefore recommended that organizations employ the use of drones in various ways such as in consumer product delivery, where packages are delivered to customers by the use of drones; this has the ability to increase customer satisfaction as well as increasing the efficiency (Compton, 2016 p.89).Drones can also be used by organizations for search and rescue. This is in regard to the military where we see that drones have been extensively used. They can also be employed in the media and entertainment industry. Drones can be used to capture footage during various events such as sporting events as well as other relevant media events (Livshits, 2016 p.55).
Basically, as technology evolves, it becomes even more important and necessary for various organizations across United Kingdom and also across the globe to adopt the use of these emerging themes (Corcoran, 2015 p.102). These emerging themes have so many advantages associated with them and when they are fully utilized, they can result into a growth in the economy of a country. It is therefore a call for all relevant organization that they maximize these themes so as to increase productivity.
Finally, the future is more dependent on disruptive forms of technology such as these emerging trends. They represent the future of not only the economy of the United Kingdom but as well as the world’s economy. They should therefore be fully exploited and put into maximum use so that they can result into tremendous and various changes that would change the economy of the world in a positive manner (Bentley, 2018 p.89). It should also be noted that these organizations should also be very cautious in regard to the use of these themes because they could also lead to various forms of damages.
