Book description
To understand how companies might successfully assess, pilot, and implement cutting-edge technologies, the authors studied how IKEA introduced drone technology into its warehouse operations. The company’s experience demonstrates that a use case for a technology that has not yet been widely adopted can be developed into a meaningful business case when an organization takes a coordinated approach to conducting pilots and finds the right vendor partners.
