Smart Ports Overview
Digital Transformation and Alignment with Industry 4.0
Ports have been slow adopters of industry 4.0 trends such as automation, cloud data solutions, and networks of IoT sensors. Industries of similar complexity, such as manufacturing and mining, have adopted many of the solutions that ports are just now beginning to explore. The potential for growth in investment for key technology areas such as automation, sensors, and next generation cellular networking is tremendous.
Investment in digital transformation will likely be driven by ever increasing trade throughput of ports, sustainability initiatives and regulations, and increased competition among ports and terminal operators to have the most efficient processes. Many ports with previously lower TEU throughputs will likely see an increase that would justify investment in these IoT technologies and digital transformation. The bulk of this investment is expected to come in the docking area, as ships continue to increase in size.
This Guidehouse Insights report analyzes the global market outlook for two key technologies: crane automation and sensor deployment across three key segments of the port value chain: docking, in-port, and short haul drayage. The study also provides an analysis of other technologies such communications networking, robots and drones, and data sharing solutions. The global market forecast is broken out by region, technology, port size, and segment of the value chain.
