| | March 20214The manufacturing sector of India has the potential to reach US$ 1 trillion by 2025. The implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) will make India a common market with a GDP of US$ 2.5 trillion along with a population of 1.32 billion people, which will be a big draw for investors. With the help of Make in India drive, India is on a path of becoming the hub for hi-tech manufacturing as global giants such as GE, Siemens, HTC, Toshiba, and Boeing have either set up or are in process of setting up manufacturing plants in India, attracted by India's market of more than a billion consumers and an increasing purchasing power. And, manufacturing is no longer simply about making physical products. Changes in consumer demand, the nature of products, the economics of production, and the economics of the supply chain have led to a fundamental shift in the way companies do business. Customers demand personalization and customization as the line between consumer and creator continues to blur.While Narendra Modi's `Make In India' initiative to promote manufacturing in India was mocked by some, it has given a new ray of hope to many budding businesses. Planning and scheduling, quality management, inventory optimization, tooling management, preventative and predictive maintenance, and Manufacturing Intelligence are some of the core functional areas included in an manufacturing execution today. With increasing customer trust, making on-time order shipments, earning a reputation for high-quality products, achieving traceability and optimizing production scheduling are achievable with adoption of right manufacturing strategies and solutions.
