F1, Need for Speed 🏎️ (0.2)

A little dive into pace and its significance in F1.

🏎️ - Of course, each racer and their respective cars need to be fast but the race starts before race day.

🏎️ - F1 teams often have to work 1-2 week cycle between races, this means they have a to engineer parts they need in a fast pace. (Every race requires new parts)

🏎️ - ERP systems become critical to acquire live metrics on what parts are needed, what has been delivered, and how quick they are performing under this tight schedule.

🏎️ - Teams that are not able to deliver timely would often end up dealing with an underperforming car.

🏎️ - Leveraging live dashboarding tools like Grafana, Power BI, Tableau and the likes (depending on what fits best) go a long way in maintaing the takt time for the integration of new car parts.

🏎️ - These provide complete visibility across board so every member knows where the team is at and if parts are being fixed quickly enough.

🏎️ - So there you have it, the race can be said to start with proper data handling, analysis, and visualisation.

🏎️ - Handling these efficiently is a real skill and of immense value.
