From Data to Delivery - Predicting delivery times for vehicles

Abstract

Accurately predicting the delivery time for vehicles often proves to be difficult. The complexity inherent in supply chains and additional factors influencing them in general, make it near impossible to derive meaningful calculations and predictions by hand. The automotive industry faced many challenges to overcome over the past few years. COVID-19 not only limited resources but caused all kinds of disruptions along the supply chain. The War in Ukraine further added to that instability and both events caused longer delivery times for vehicles, parts, and even raw materials.
