In addition, Ambuja Cements and ACC are implementing the 'Plants of the Future' programme to digitally transform manufacturing processes to improve production quality and reduce costs. This includes incorporating robotics for automation, automated weighbridges, in-plant automation, automated quality testing, robotics process automation for plant shutdown management, and drones for maintenance. The digital transformation also encompasses their Industry 4.0-based Command-and-Control programme, a pioneering platform that offers stakeholders a visual representation of critical business data as well as insights and exceptions for seamless and proactive running of the business. This platform harnesses advanced analytics, equipping decision-makers with the necessary tools to optimise strategies for maximum output. Under phase 1 of this programme, the companies have developed the Cement Network Operating Centre (CNOC) dashboard.
