4IR

The transition towards the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) otherwise called Industry 4.0 (I4.0) across virtually all sectors, is already upon us. Industry 4.0, as it developed from automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies, is changing the way Industry is evolving.

It offers new opportunities for SMEs to create new business models and integrate into global value chains. The fourth industrial revolution is built on cyber-physical systems (CPS), the Internet of things and services, cloud computing and cognitive computing.

The 4IR is characterized by fusion of technologies and intelligent engineering that blurs the line between the physical, digital and biological spheres. It requires new thinking, skills development and business process optimization to integrate these principles in existing and new enterprises.

Our strength lies in I4.0 support relating to water quality and quantity management, air quality control, energy management, and waste management in a circular, green economy.
