Ambuja Cements Limited and ACC Limited, the cement and building material companies of the diversified Adani Portfolio, are excited to unveil their commitment towards innovation that will redefine the construction landscape through a series of visionary digital initiatives. The companies are steadfastly pursuing operational excellence and customer-centric solutions with cutting-edge digital initiatives.
Mr. Ajay Kapur, CEO – Cement Business, Adani Group, said, “With the continuous evolution of the digital landscape across the nation and globally, we wholeheartedly embrace the need for the construction sector to adapt and create more efficient and effective solutions. Our digital journey reflects our dedication to innovate and deliver best in class products and solutions to all our stakeholders efficiently. Ambuja Cements and ACC’s digital initiatives emerge as a beacon of progress. The process of modernising the entire digital landscape, as well as using AI & IoT technologies for enhancing the plants stand as a testament to the company’s unwavering commitment to progress.”
At the forefront of this initiative is the development of the NexGen Sales & Reward Platform, a forward-looking digital ecosystem designed to foster seamless collaboration among customers, channel partners, retailers, influencers and sales partners by streamlining coordination and operations on a modern technology stack. By standardising and simplifying business processes, the companies aspire to significantly enhance outcomes for internal teams and external collaborators.
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.
