Under the Samarth Udyog Mission, initiated by the Ministry of Heavy Industry (MHI), Government of India, IIT Delhi and the Automation Industry Association (AIA), in collaboration with industry sponsors, have established the IITD-AIA Foundation for Smart Manufacturing (FSM). This state-of-the-art facility serves as a catalyst for advancing Smart Manufacturing in the Indian industry, providing a dynamic space for businesses to witness, conceptualize, and experiment with cutting-edge technologies within their own operations.
Beyond industry engagement, this initiative is dedicated to developing a comprehensive educational curriculum and skill-building ecosystem. By fostering an innovative incubation and administrative framework, FSM aims to equip professionals and students with the expertise required for the future of manufacturing.
FSM Skills is an integrated learning platform designed to deliver an immersive training experience through live lectures, online courses, real-time demonstrations, interactive labs, and self-paced exercises on remotely accessible industrial-grade hardware.

Our Stakeholders & Partners
The Automation Industries Association (AIA) is spearheading the establishment of a Common Engineering Facility Center (CEFC) at IIT Delhi, uniting industry experts to drive Smart Manufacturing in India. This initiative fosters collaboration among Technology & Investment Partners, Simulation & Integration Partners, and Machinery Partners, aiming to revolutionize the Indian manufacturing sector by integrating cutting-edge Industry 4.0 principles.
The CEFC envisions a holistic transformation of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) through the Smart Technology Enabled Manufacturing (STEM) framework. By leveraging elements of Industry 4.0, the Industrial Internet Consortium, and e-Factory, the initiative seeks to incrementally automate manufacturing processes, ensuring a structured, cost-effective transition for businesses. Rather than an overwhelming, all-at-once overhaul, this phased approach fosters sustainable and scalable industrial advancement.
Given the evolving nature of Industry 4.0, it is acknowledged that its implementation will be an ongoing journey rather than a finite goal. The CEFC, bridging academic research from IIT Delhi with industry expertise, will serve as a catalyst for this transformation. By enhancing operational efficiency, reducing costs, and integrating data-driven decision-making, the Smart Manufacturing initiative will empower Indian SMEs, boost product customization, elevate job quality, and ultimately enhance the standard of living.
