When AI meets cloud ERP: Driving the digital shift in India’s automotive manufacturing
“I was pretty dismayed by the IT being deployed in this industry. It was minimal a decade back,” said Vinnie Mehta, General Secretary of the Automotive Components Manufacturing Association of India (ACMA). “Then came the pandemic, and the entire industry transformed itself, and that was something wonderful to have happened,” Mehta added.
Mehta said that everyone jumped onto the IT bandwagon in the industry almost overnight, to the point that ERP systems have now become integral to managing the entire value chain.
“It is only fitting, given the fact that the whole automotive value chain contributes to around 7% of India’s GDP, and the auto component industry is half of that. Today, it is hard to envisage a manufacturing value chain without the ERP systems,” he said.
