01

Key Findings

01Computer aided manufacturing, automated inspection/testing, benchmarking, and just-in-time inventory control are expected to see a significant increase in adoption.
02Computer aided design, computer aided manufacturing, MRP/ERP, plant certification, and local area networks are likely to receive substantial investment.
03Larger companies show a stronger tendency towards AMT adoption.

02

Application

Design takeaway

Focus on implementing and investing in technologies that are projected for high future adoption and significant investment in the Indian market, particularly those related to automation, design, planning, and quality control.

How to apply

When planning new product lines or manufacturing upgrades, research current and projected adoption rates of relevant technologies in your target market, and consider the investment trends to ensure long-term viability.

Project actions

01When researching technology adoption, consider the specific economic and industrial context of the region.
02Use comparative analysis to understand how different markets approach similar technological challenges.

03

Method & Evidence

AimTo identify the current status, future adoption plans, and investment priorities for advanced manufacturing technologies in India, and to analyze the critical success factors and obstacles influencing this adoption.

MethodSurvey research and comparative analysis

ProcedureA survey was conducted to gather data on current and planned adoption of AMT in Indian firms, including methods, success factors, personnel shortages, benefits, obstacles, and R&D links. Comparisons were made with data from firms in Singapore and Canada regarding success factors, benefits, obstacles, and R&D relationships.
