Tracking the Implications of Automation on Workforce Dynamics in the Supply Chain.

Over the past three years, our team has meticulously tracked the rate of change in automation, aiming to understand the far-reaching implications on the workforce.

By measuring changes at 18-month intervals, we capture the dynamic nature of an industry subject to macroeconomic fluctuations and traditional planning cycles.

Tracking Automation Amidst Inflationary Pressures

Building on the insights gained from our initial Pulse, the second phase of our research commenced in February 2023, focusing on the automation landscape in Bangladesh's RMG sector.

This time, we examined the impact of inflationary pressures and shifts in orders on factory operations. Our study explored how machines and training factor into crucial aspects like recruitment, hiring, retention, and more. As we collected data on changing machine investment strategies amidst order fluctuations, a clearer picture emerged of the industry's trajectory.
