The German training, inspection, testing and certification giant, TÜV SÜD, has announced that it has completed the Industry 4.0 Readiness Index Assessment for Pelican Rotoflex, one of Asia’s leading manufacturer of flexible packaging printing lines having manufacturing set up at Rajkot, Gujarat, India.
For the assessment, TÜV SÜD has used the Readiness Index Assessment, a diagnostic tool that uses the three fundamental building blocks of Industry 4.0 – process, technology and organization to evaluate readiness.
Post this assessment, Pelican will be able to migrate to Industry 4.0 in a targeted and step-wise way to translate concepts into real business value. It will also be able to break down these concepts into digestible, key building blocks and provide a clear articulation of benefits that are tangible.
Vishal Nerurkar, vice president, business assurance, TÜV SÜD South Asia said,m “As a concept, Industry 4.0 can potentially revolutionize the way business is conducted and its related profitability. We truly believe that India’s growth will be positively impacted through widespread adaptation of this concept. Considering technological advancements are rapidly altering the manufacturing landscape, deployment of advanced techniques is the need of the hour. We are confident that our framework will help businesses across sectors to transform processes and drive efficiencies to achieve economies of scale.
TÜV SÜD with its broad industrial technology and process optimization knowledge, has leveraged its vast experience to successfully develop a holistic framework for Industry 4.0 Readiness Index Assessment. The resultant approach is robust in both theory and practicality and is simple for any business to use, regardless of size or industry.”
TÜV SÜD’s assessments have enabled businesses to avoid the trap of a pure technology focus, where critical areas such as process design and workforce development are often overlooked.
