Abstract
Material Supply is highly important in the competitive world. Waiting for materials is one of the eight big losses in lean manufacturing. The availability of materials in the right places is of prime importance in industrial stores, sales centre, and material service after the Principle of Automation. In the procurement of materials, office automation plays an important role in making materials available for manufacturing at the right time. Though Material requirement Planning and Manufacturing requirement Planning were automated with computers, they must be fine-tuned with technological advancements. Office automation tools are preferred in this research. Service innovation is key to sustainable strategic advantage differentiation across the company and markets. A manual and conceptual task in management planning plays a most significant role in the basic principles of office automation. Recent advances in automation include using digital inventions not only for office tasks but also for automated office functions such as managing labour resources, availability of materials, categories of materials, consumption patent of materials, cost of materials, the procurement cost of materials from various supplies etc. As a result, many automations, typing letters, visual transformation, and updated technologies are encrypted and communicated in virtual form. However, conceptual experimentation efforts that inquire about these improvements were dispersed throughout a broad span of academic research, contributing to an absence of consistency in major results and applications. The main objective of this article is to explore the various approaches in Materials supply and service automation with the help of advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) with its additional branches. The past literature studies were based on knowledge of developments in intelligent automation and service sectors. It offers several new strategic options to enhance the company's business value. This investigation reveals the following areas as well (i) varied technologies associated with automation, (ii) value-based intelligent automation innovations in knowledge and office sectors (iii) finally addressed the research gap in optimisation of office automation for ensuring the supply of materials at the right time.
