Aerotec Alone Limitations​

  1. Limited AI expertise - Would need to build or outsource
  2. No enterprise integration - SAP PM expertise gap
  3. Slower time-to-value - Learning curve on platform

Trifork Alone Limitations​

  1. No drone operations - Would need local partner
  2. No ANAC relationships - Regulatory compliance gap
