Indian Manufacturing adopts Advanced Tech for Smart Solutions
According to experts, the Indian manufacturing sector is actively embracing intelligent solutions, transitioning towards automation and cyber-physical systems driven by cutting-edge technologies. The Nasscom Centre of Excellence (CoE), a part of the Digital India initiative supported by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) and the Government of Gujarat, recently concluded its six-week Smart Manufacturing Accelerator Programme (SMAP) in collaboration with Capgemini.
During the event, experts highlighted that while some large enterprises have successfully embraced digitalization, many others are still grappling with where and how to initiate this transformation. Consequently, there's a rising demand to equip manufacturing leaders with the skills necessary to navigate and lead this change effectively. Sanjeev Gupta, Vice President and Head of Digital Manufacturing CoE at Capgemini, emphasized the importance of manufacturers swiftly embracing change while maintaining efficiency and sustainability amidst evolving market dynamics and technological advancements.
The SMAP initiative offered step-by-step guidance to manufacturing leaders and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on accelerating the adoption of digital technologies to enhance operational efficiency and productivity within their plants. Sanjeev Malhotra, CEO of Nasscom CoE, expressed commitment to advancing India's journey towards Industry 4.0 and providing support to numerous organizations in their digital transformation efforts.
With a cohort comprising over 120 leaders and SMEs from the industry, SMAP has played a crucial role in offering strategic insights into applying advanced technologies across various manufacturing functions. Through this initiative, efforts are being made to drive digitalization within India's manufacturing sector, thereby contributing to its advancement in line with global standards.
