KEY PRIORITIES OF 2020
UNO Minda has started the journey of Digital Transformation for the last three years and post COVID-19, we are putting huge focus into digitisation in every aspect looking at the new norms of WFH (Work From Home), remote working, and maintaining social distance. Focus is on complete digitisation of shop floor and supply chain area, analytics through AI based tools for visibility in working capital and cash flow, predictive and prescriptive analytics through real time dashboards and alerts. Investments and spend is expected in the areas of Smart Manufacturing, IoT, Mobile services and apps, Cloud platform, touchless processes and operations, Facial recognition based attendance and social distancing solutions.
COMBINING BREAKTHROUGH & FUSION APPROACH
Due to this new normal in difficult times, where resources are scarce and availability of funds is a big issue, the focus is on innovation and startup. Board is asking for a faster payback or outcome based model for all projects. Breakthrough innovation is the talk of the day and top management is continuously adapting technology through innovative cost effective routes.
CYBER SECURITY
Cyber Security is one of the top three challenges and focus areas in IT for all industry verticals and it is the same in our organisation. This year, due to huge threats on cyber space, we are looking for SOC solutions and offerings, DLP, EDR, APT prevention solutions to mitigate risks within and outside threats.
ACHIEVING DIGITALIZATION
Digital India and Startup India initiatives are helping us leverage support from large technology startup ecosystems to get low cost but highly innovative solutions and providing us both innovative and cost advantage. Make in India (Atmanirbhar Bharat) will further accelerate the availability of more startup low cost solutions to keep our budgets on a lower side in this difficult time.
