…what MHI is saying, 2017 will be the biggest Promat ever. In that regard, there has been a lot of talk about where the industry fits in the supply chain, both around the table at our magazine as well as within the industry. I think that question misses the point: Supply chain people aren’t looking for broader supply chain solutions, like demand planning, S&OP or logistics, from us. They’re hungry for innovative solutions that will solve their materials handling problems. Most importantly, we are an enabling technology. When I first started writing about the industry, the point of materials handling…

…face rapid, brutal extinction.“ Based on my week at Promat in Chicago, I’d argue that the clockspeed of our industry has been accelerating in an unprecedented fashion over the last three to five years. As one industry veteran put it the other day, there was a ten-year period where we more or less saw many of the same products and solutions at show after show. Achievements were often a measure of speeds and feeds – the rate at which the equipment could move materials through a DC. This Promat, I had more conversations about algorithms and software, like the one…
