So what will a “Tradie of the Future” look like?
1. He will be super strong.
Using his exoskeleton suit to lift and manouver absolutely anything.
2. He has a constant flow of high quality work.
He is registered with an internet marketplace for services like ServiceCentral.com.au and simply picks and chooses the high value jobs that are near to him that he wants to do.
3. He never has to worry about payment or paperwork.
He uses systems like Eaco.me for creating quotes, invoicing and chasing payments are a thing of the past. He just checks the bank balance occasionally to see how much its gone up.
4. Parts fly in within 5 minutes.
Upon identifying which parts he needs, they are automatically ordered for the job and fly in on a drone helicopter within 5 minutes. Just enough time to sneak in a nice coffee.
5. Parts are 3D printed in his van.
Parts not in stock? Easy, just 3D print one from the printer in your van. Maybe even print a new tool?
6. Bigger parts and building materials arrive via a self-driven truck.
Dispatched from a local warehouse and on-site within 30 minutes.
7. Problems solve themselves.
Every tradie has all of the world’s information at their fingertips, meaning that they no longer need to be stumped by a big problem. Photos and Videos of issues are uploaded to the cloud, and people that have solved that problem before collaborate to help the tradie out.
8. Visualise the end result using Google Glass.
Put on Google Glasses to have an overlay of what the end result will look like. Imagine seeing the finished home on the block before you have even started building.
9. Visualise how to solve the problem.
Never fixed that type of unit before, easy fixed. Follow the instructions on Google Glass and you will have it fixed in no time.
10. Safety will be a breeze.
Will hardhats be replaced by these inflatable helmets instead?
11. Finding subbies and staff is a breeze.
Whenever the tradie needs a hand, he simply posts a job on ServiceCentral.com.au
12. Diagnostics will be a breeze.
Embedded monitoring and fault ID chips will tell you what is wrong with the unit.
13. Scheduling will direct you to the next job via the most efficient route
14. Productivity will be improved.
The nearest, next available tradie will be directed to the job
15. Home owners won't need to be home.
Automatic access and monitoring will solve the attendance and security issues
Some Problems will never be Solved!
Apprentices will always have silly haircuts! Oh, and your smartphone will still always run out of batteries!
