In the most recent edition of the Samsara study called: “Smarter, Faster, Safer: The AI Revolution in Mexican Physical Operations”, which identifies the situation faced in connected operations, where 150 leaders participated Mexicans from industry and various companies.
The report generated by Samsara identifies how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming safety, efficiency and productivity in key industries worldwide,and particularly in Mexico.
1,550 operations leaders in seven countries, including Mexico, participated in the exercise motivated by Samsara. It highlights the fundamental role that AI plays in improving operations within organizations, which generate more than 40% of the Internal Product. World gross (GDP).
Among the research findings is that 94% of operations leaders surveyed believe their organization needs to invest in artificial intelligence technology solutions to stay up to date in the current environment.
“AI is everywhere and physical operations are rapidly adopting it,” said Evan Welbourne, director of AI and Data at Samsara. “When used strategically, these AI advances can bring significant changes to the organizations that drive our global economy.”
Mexico with favorable prospects
For 94% of leaders who participated in this research, AI is vital to staying ahead, while 87% of organizations say they plan to increase investments in AI in the next 12 months.
In this context, Samsara’s research reveals that Mexico is leading the adoption of AI in physical operations. “The country’s high level of AI maturity is indicative of this region’s focus on road safety and property security, areas where AI technology, such as dash cameras, is already generating a return on investment.” significant,” Samsara reported.
In Mexico, 50% of leaders say that the use of AI is “widespread” within their organization, meaning that AI is used in all departments and employees are trained on how to use it, more than in any other country surveyed. Canada (34%) and the United States (38%) are not far behind, which may be due to the fact that 41% of North American leaders say they are rushing to invest in the latest technology solutions, compared to 24%. of European leaders. However, 80% of European leaders report that they plan to increase their investments in AI in the next year, suggesting that it will not take long for adoption to become widespread, regardless of region.
In the case of Mexico, two examples of how AI technology is transforming the landscape of physical operations in Mexico are companies such as Súper Transporte Internacional (STI) , a firm focused on commercial exchange in North America, which resulted in a reduction in 18% in accident-related expenses and a 12% decrease in driver turnover.
Mexicana Logistics also stands out in this success story , specializing in the transportation of trucks and vehicles, which reduced delays in the departure of units by 80 percent.
A telling fact is that AI is not considered an experimental technology for the industries that keep the global economy running. More than half (51%) of leaders surveyed say their organization is already using AI, and the most significant reported benefits include improved safety (45%) and employee productivity (42%).
Recognizing the importance of data security, 58% of organizations using AI or planning to implement it in the next one to two years are prioritizing data protection and privacy measures.
In terms of readiness for AI regulatory frameworks, Mexico is one of the top three countries surveyed reporting the highest levels of readiness in terms of privacy and data protection (85%), along with the United States (87%) and Canada (82%), although Europe is not far behind.
