Time for a Tune-up: Advanced Analytics and Auto Safety

The buzz: Safety first. After record vehicle recalls in 2014, automakers are under intense pressure from consumers and regulators to be proactive about product quality and safety issues; protect consumers; and minimize the duration, scale, and cost of recall events. How? Advanced analytics. The experts speak. Mark Gardner, Deloitte: “Anyone who sits on top of the largest hydrogen-oxygen fueled system in the world, knowing they’re going to light the bottom, and doesn’t get a little worried, does not fully understand the situation” (Space Shuttle Commander John Young). Josh Greenbaum, EAC Consulting: “Beware the unintended consequences of advanced analytics in the automotive sector. Saving lives is unequivocally a good idea, but big data analytics will have other impacts that might not be as well-received.” Derek Snaidauf, Deloitte: “Better three hours too soon than a minute too late” (William Shakespeare).
