Last month International Centre for Industrial Transformation (INCIT) announced a high-impact collaborative partnership with the National Industrial Development and Logistics Program (NIDLP) of Saudi Arabia to drive the adoption of the Smart Industry Readiness Index (SIRI) throughout the Kingdom and accelerate the transformation of the manufacturing sector.
INCIT is an independent, non-government institute founded to spearhead the transformation of global manufacturing. It champions the Industry 4.0 journeys of manufacturers and advocates for the global rise of التصنيع الذكي.
Founder and CEO Raimund Klein believes the partnership will transform the Kingdom into a leading industrial powerhouse and a global logistics hub.
“The adoption of Smart Industry Readiness Index will maximize the value of its mining and energy sectors while unlocking the full potential of the Fourth Industrial Revolution,” he said.
The partnership between INICT and NIDLP will see the roll-out of Smart Industry Readiness Index in manufacturing facilities across the nation to gather data on micro- and macroeconomic trends. This will enable the sustainable transformation of the Saudi Arabian manufacturing industry, led by facts-based data analytics.
Smart Industry Readiness Index , a project also sponsored by the World Economic Forum, provides a framework to help solve every production problem whether across silos, processes, technologies, or the organization itself, while at the same time increasing productivity. It allows manufacturers to prioritize their key focus areas so that resources can be adequately allocated to deliver the greatest impact. ~ENDS
