No Risk Automation Founder Discusses Eliminating the Automation Bias in AutomationMedia
By: TR Cutler
 
May 28, 2014 - PRLog -- No Risk Automation founder, John Hayes, authored a feature article in the current issue of AutomationMedia.com. The article, entitled, “Eliminating the automation Bias,” argues that representing an automated guided vehicle (AGV) vendor is often a conflict of interest.

Hayes recalled, “As a sales manager for several automated guided vehicle (AGV) companies there was an intention: sell AGVs. Performance was measured by number of vehicles sold per month, per quarter, per year, year over year, and at a measured profitability. It took courage to say to the customer and to C-level AGV management, ‘Sorry this isn't the right product for you.’”

The end-user customer's interests may not align with the AGV vendor's interests. The only way to avoid these conflicts is a vendor agnostic approach to automation.

According to Hayes, “Rather than entering an automation conversation with a pre-designated solution, there are steps to clearly recognize the best-practices, the leanest solutions, the most rapid return-on-investment (ROI), while avoiding the landmines and confusing games played by many AGV salespeople.”
