The Changing Landscape of the Truck Industry

As Bob Dylan famously said, “The times they are a-changin’,” and this sentiment rings especially true for the trucking sector.

Evolution of Delivery Processes

The traditional, labor-intensive methods of package delivery have now evolved. Trucking companies are adopting advanced logistics strategies such as capacity-as-a-service, crowdsourced delivery, truck platooning, optimized predictive maintenance, and smart cargo. This transformation is further extended with the electrification of vehicles to address powertrain and emissions challenges.

The Role of Digital Technology

Technological advancements like cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and machine learning are revolutionizing trucking capabilities and mobility services. By 2030, many of these technologies are expected to be widely implemented.

64% of trucking executives believe their organization’s future hinges on digital transformation.

Key Influencers in the Truck Industry

Looking ahead to the next decade, technological innovations and evolving customer needs will be pivotal for the trucking industry. Additionally, tapping into a global talent pool with appropriate skills is a significant consideration.

A Shift Toward Sustainability

Growing sustainability mandates are prompting the adoption of eco-friendly powertrains. Furthermore, the rise of green transportation concepts is affecting how goods are transported, as virtual shopping experiences change consumer demands. Competition from unconventional companies is also likely to disrupt traditional revenue models.

The Future of Truck Companies

The trucking companies of tomorrow will differ significantly from those of the past. Executives face crucial questions: How can these organizations reimagine themselves like tech firms focused on digital innovation? What new roles will they take on in goods mobility? How will they effectively train and retain their workforce to meet future challenges?

By 2030, truck companies are projected to invest $118 billion in employee reskilling.

Insights from the Truck 2030 Executive Survey

An extensive survey conducted by the IBM Institute for Business Value gathered insights from over 1,300 executives representing various trucking and ancillary companies. A notable segment, termed “Visionaries,” showed a proactive understanding of their digital strategies, significantly outperforming their peers in financial metrics over the past three years.

By 2030, an estimated $465 billion in annual revenue is expected to transition from product sales to service-based models.

The Urgency for Digital Reinvention

A stark 64% of respondents indicated that digital transformation is essential for both current and future success. While both Visionaries and others are at the early stages of digital reinvention—approximately 36% complete—the Visionaries exhibit greater urgency and readiness, with 53% more expressing a high level of urgency and 112% more believing their organizations can effectively undergo digital transformation.

For those in the Visionary group, the pivotal moment for change is now, while others must accelerate their efforts to keep pace. Explore the full report to understand the anticipated innovations set to reshape the trucking industry over the coming decade.
