Still Running a Marathon to Build One HMI? Let’s Stop the Chaos.
Before we talk about modern touch display innovation, let’s look at a classic “supply chain headache” from an ancient legend.
The Legend of Mulan’s Procurement Chaos
Once upon a time, in ancient China, there was a girl named Mulan. When her old father was called to war, she knew he was too frail to go. Bravely, Mulan disguised herself as a man to take his place and head to the battlefield.
But before she hit the battlefield, she faced a challenge every Project Manager can relate to: Extreme Fragmentation. To prepare herself, Mulan had to run all over the capital to assemble a complete riding set:
“The East Market for a swift horse;
The West Market for a saddle;
The South Market for a bridle;
The North Market for a long whip.”
Imagine the exhaustion. Four different vendors, four separate negotiations, and the constant risk that the saddle bought at the West Market might not even fit the horse from the East.
Does this sound familiar? 🤯
In HMI development, many companies are still living Mulan’s struggle. You source the display from one place, the touch sensor from another, and then struggle to find a third partner for mechanical integration and firmware.
When components are sourced in silos, you face:
• Compatibility issues (The “Saddle” doesn’t fit).
• Multiple lead times to manage
• Finger-pointing between vendors when something goes wrong.
