5G deployments are steadily increasing in operational frequency, and this is driving miniaturization in device architectures.

From source of supply to delivery of product to the customer – the supply chain journey starts with a simple request that often leads to unexpected complexity and expense along the way. Customer demands for on-time performance and customizable delivery options are increasing every year. Profit margins are under constant pressure as costs creep up across the global, complex supply networks. Further, the lack of visibility and insights for controlling costs can result in rising operational expenses that challenge the bottom line. 

Today’s consumers move in a digitally-enhanced world, checking sports scores or grooving to the beat of a personal playlist as they walk down the street. As a result, smartphones have conditioned us to expect a user-friendly, customized environment everywhere we go. And that environment increasingly includes the cars we drive.
