Research Experience

Research Interests :	Research interests include Supply chain, Flexible manufacturing systems, System reliability and maintenance, Quality engineering , Six sigma and ISO 9000 QMS,FMEA, Industry 4.0 Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
Brief Research Statement :	Industry 4.0, referred to as IIoT or smart manufacturing, marries physical production and operations with smart digital technology, and big data to create a more holistic and better connected ecosystem for companies that focus on manufacturing and supply chain management. While every company and organization operating today is different, they all face a common challenge—the need for connectedness and access to real-time insights across processes, partners, products, and people.
