Is Manufacturing Ready for Agentic AI?
From Connected Operations to Autonomous Order-to-Cash
Sponsored by
Overview
Manufacturing enterprises in India are rapidly digitizing core operations from shop floor systems to supply chain and finance driven by national initiatives like Make in India and Digital India, alongside increasing regulatory digitization. However, much of this transformation still relies on fragmented automation and disconnected workflows. The emergence of agentic AI introduces a new paradigm: systems that can act across the entire value chain, from demand capture to cash realization, with minimal human intervention.
As agentic AI adoption accelerates globally, Indian manufacturers are already building strong momentum, over 40% are piloting or deploying agentic AI in 2026. This shift is particularly relevant in high-friction areas such as order-to-cash, inventory management, and production coordination, where delays, manual errors, and limited real-time visibility continue to impact margins.
This invitation only roundtable will bring together senior manufacturing leaders alongside IDC to explore how organizations can enable agentic workflows through integration, real-time data access, and end-to-end visibility—while ensuring governance and measurable business outcomes.
