Traditional processes often lack traceability, making it challenging to track the "5 M’s" (Man, Machine, Method, Material, Measurement). Currently, fewer than 20% of operations utilize automation.
Effective inventory management is crucial yet often inefficient. Key challenges include tracking actual raw material usage, blocked cash flow, order losses due to understocking, and write-offs from overstocking.
The RFQ process is time-consuming and error-prone, especially when extracting the Bill of Material (BOM) from customer-provided drawings and estimating cycle times. Selecting the best supplier combination from numerous quotes is highly manual and prone to human error.

In today’s shifting global landscape, the timing for advancing India’s manufacturing sector is ideal. With major international trends and domestic initiatives aligning, SMAD is uniquely positioned to drive meaningful impact in the manufacturing industry.
India stands at a pivotal moment as companies worldwide adopt the "China Plus One" (C+1) strategy, diversifying investments beyond China and into other emerging economies. As China faces economic and regulatory challenges, coupled with rising tensions with the US, businesses are increasingly seeking stable, cost-effective alternatives in India, Thailand, Turkey, and Vietnam. Between 2017 and 2023, India’s share of US imports rose from 2.1% to 2.7%, while China’s dropped from 22% to below 14%, indicating a significant shift.
Despite this momentum, India’s manufacturing sector remains underdeveloped, contributing only 17% of GDP for more than a decade. This stagnation is largely due to reliance on traditional industries with limited growth potential. For India to fully capitalize on the C+1 shift and strengthen its role in diversified global supply chains, there is an urgent need to modernize manufacturing and increase high-value exports.
The “Make in India” initiative further underscores the strategic opportunity in Indian manufacturing. Backed by extensive support from the government, including tax incentives and simplified compliance, the initiative is positioning India as a global manufacturing powerhouse. SMAD’s solutions cater to eight of the fourteen priority sectors targeted by this initiative, including electronics, electrical machinery, and defence.
As global supply chains pivot and India’s favorable policies continue to support manufacturing growth, SMAD’s focus on operational efficiency and competitiveness is perfectly aligned with the vision of a sustainable, resilient, and scalable manufacturing sector in India.
SMAD is at the forefront of transforming India's manufacturing sector through cutting-edge automation and digitalization solutions tailored for non-Tier 1 companies. With strategic focus areas, including process automation, inventory optimization, and cost-efficient RFQ systems, we are positioned to address significant pain points in an underserved market.
As the global manufacturing landscape evolves and India solidifies its role in diversified supply chains, SMAD’s solutions will be critical in driving sustainable growth and competitiveness. Our business aligns perfectly with the "China Plus One" strategy and the "Make in India" initiative, making it an ideal time for strategic investment.
By joining us on this journey, investors have an opportunity to be part of a high-impact venture that is not only set to yield substantial returns but also drive meaningful change in the manufacturing sector.
