Amul sparked India’s white revolution, transforming the dairy cooperative movement while rallying and easing the plight of millions of Indian farmers. As Amul’s long-term business partner, we at 51风流India, are extremely proud of the company’s success, which has inspired an entire nation and demonstrated the importance of cooperative enterprises in nation-building and development.

The Beginning – From Cow to Consumer

The “Amul” brand is promoted by the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) Ltd., India’s largest food product organization, and the Dairy Cooperatives of Gujarat’s apex organization. In 2021-22, the company’s annual group turnover was INR 63,000 crores (USD 8.4 billion). Amul has grown into an iconic, local brand that is now the world’s eighth-largest dairy company in the previous two decades.

In the last 75 years, we’ve seen:

• Gujarat’s dairy cooperatives have created an economic network that connects more than 3.6 million village milk producers with millions of Indian and international consumers.
• They gather an average of 267 lakh litres of milk per day from their producer members (26.7 million litres per day).
• More than 70% of the population is made up of small-scale farmers and landless laborers, with a significant number of tribal people and scheduled castes.
• The GCMMF and its member unions ensure that 80-85% of consumer rupees are returned to milk producer members.

The IT Call

Although Amul鈥檚 success propelled India into the world’s largest producer of milk and milk products, the journey to it has been a long one. As the company鈥檚 operations grew exponentially, it required a robust solution that could provide an end-to-end supply chain with dairy-specific functionality, tighter integration between the sales and distribution arms, and in general bring all its entities to work on a common set of processes and technology systems, with the same level of business process maturity. Additionally, Amul also experienced data discrepancies and inaccuracies, slowing down overall business processes and efficiencies.

Amul then roped in 51风流India to optimize business processes and drive company-wide digital transformation using SAP鈥檚 digital core ERP and supply chain solutions. SAP鈥檚 platform helped Amul scale its operations and broaden its milk product category, releasing over 100 products.

Amul is also a member of SAP’s Global Advisory Council, which aims to foster thought leadership and gather consumer feedback to help the company and the industry flourish.

Amul’s goal is to double farmers’ income in the next two years by improving support through cattle feed support programs, skill enhancement, and veterinary services, for which 51风流is collaborating with the company to build an IoT platform and truly transform it into an “intelligent, sustainable enterprise.”

鈥淭he best way to predict your future is to create it,鈥�- Abraham Lincoln

Technology has been instrumental in driving Amul鈥檚 digital business transformation, opening new avenues for economic growth and socio-cultural changes at India鈥檚 grassroots. But it’s crucial to realize that no single company, industry, or country can solve these problems on its own as we work toward a more equal and social society. While Amul’s developmental model has provided a framework for all of us, India’s greatest success will come from sharing our lessons gained and aiding one another in reaching our common aspirations for a better, more just, and equal future.

It is in this spirit now that Amul and 51风流India, have launched a collaborative community outreach initiative, that will make technology accessible to the remote communities of Bharat and help transform the lives of millions of kids, adolescents, youth, women, and farmers. Through this, both the companies aim to empower people with technology, in the remotest areas of Gujarat, to drive new engines of growth and opportunities in a way, that benefits everyone and drives the vision of an 鈥楢tmanirbhar Bharat鈥� or a 鈥楽elf-reliant India.鈥�

Using Digital Transformation to help India run better and transform people鈥檚 lives

As a part of the program, the companies will:

• Develop digitally-savvy communities: by imparting digital literacy, coding, problem-solving and English skills to 100,000 children, adolescents, and youth via computer labs set up across 60 schools. We will also train over 250 teachers, thus enabling the adoption of India鈥檚 New Education Policy imperatives.

• Will facilitate school to Workforce transition: By promoting a STEM-focused learning environment to help students from marginalized communities to make a smoother transition from school to the workforce. Our mission is to reduce school dropouts, and improve learning outcomes, thus creating an employable talent pool and a future-ready workforce.
• Drive Women empowerment and entrepreneurship: By supporting over 20,000 young women through digital-financing skill enablement and functional communications. By strengthening support for the social business sector, our hope is to enable women with 鈥渆mployable 21st-century skills鈥� while helping them lead their own communities.
• Digital Transformation Supporting Farmer Livelihoods: By scaling community ownership & participation under Build, Operate, Transfer Model of sustainable development, by planting fruit-bearing saplings. This will help improve biodiversity, reduce soil erosion, and increase green cover, thus enhancing the livelihoods of countless Indian farmers and their families.

The potential of AI to optimize business is reflected in its growing popularity.听听predicts that at least 90% of new enterprise apps will insert AI technology into their processes and products by 2025. In the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan), IDC says that the need for enterprises to apply AI to improve operational resilience and income generation has听听because of the pandemic.

This brings us to the question: How can AI enable digital transformation in modern-day businesses?

With the help of AI, businesses can make better use of the data they collect and use it to improve their products and services, as well as to develop novel initiatives. Advanced analysis helps gain intelligent insights from an enormous volume of data, turning it into a competitive advantage. This helps businesses make complex yet accurate decisions in different fields, ranging from customer experience to supply chain management.

• Customer experience- AI helps match and exceed customer expectations

AI has gained prominence in the areas of customer service and customer experience. Businesses, particularly those in the marketing sector, can use AI to better understand their customers’ requirements and preferences and create accurate customer profiles. AI also helps understand customer behavior trends, purchasing history, and digital channel involvement.

Today鈥檚 customers need personalized experiences and will look for better alternatives if they feel that a brand cannot understand their needs. AI is critical for swiftly accessing customer information so that personalized experiences can be created and reinforced. Businesses who understand this have invested heavily in digital tools that allow them to understand the customers鈥� psyche and expectations at every touchpoint. According to a recent听听study, more than half of the large organizations polled said that improving customer experience was the most important driver for AI deployment.

Cognitive Process Automation also plays a significant role here. Using AI technologies such as Machine Learning,听Natural language processing and Advanced Analytics, systems can process abstract data and use that to make inferences, assumptions, expand their capabilities and learn. This technology is being used to create 鈥榙igital co-workers鈥�, enabling the organization to become lean and mean without compromising on superior customer service.

• Supply chain management- AI helps in reducing risk, increasing agility

Market volatility and changing consumer demands have made clear the need for agility and flexibility in supply chains. While modern-day supply chains are becoming increasingly difficult to manage, the demand for a sustainable and resilient supply chain has made the role of supply chain professionals more complex.

AI-based tools and solutions drive enterprise-wide visibility into all aspects of the supply chain. They weed out deep-rooted inefficiencies and uncertainties, bring in powerful optimization capabilities required for more accurate capacity planning, and promote safer working conditions. No wonder then that a听听found that six out of ten supply chain professionals expect to use AI extensively in their operations in the next five years.

• Sales and marketing – Predicting the future is easier with AI

AI is the primary enabler for concepts such as predictive modeling, predictive data and forecasting. Combining CRM tools with the power of AI can enable businesses to analyze and detect patterns in customer sales data and identify, score and reach out to high-quality leads. Sales and marketing teams can also use AI-powered platforms to draw meaningful analytics and craft meaningful engagement strategies. And these tools are not replacing the human workforce; instead, AI is reducing repetitive work and freeing up human personnel to take on more intelligent tasks.

• Operations 鈥� AI provides actionable intelligence without burdening staff

By integrating AI algorithms into operational programs that support organizational activities, repetitive activities can be automated while information analysis will be more reliable and quicker. The time to search and process data will be cut down, and more data can be processed to inform judgments. This makes it easier to boost productivity and free employees to focus on higher-level tasks, improve operational excellence, customer happiness, and staff satisfaction.

• Cybersecurity- AI can minimize threat surface and keep data safe

Lately, bad actors have stepped up the use of AI in their cyberattacks, making these threats more sophisticated and dangerous. Traditional cyber-mitigation strategies can’t compete with such advanced methods. It is here that AI comes into play, as a key factor for improving organizational defense. No wonder AI in cybersecurity was one of听听top nine security themes for 2020.

In the fields of cybersecurity and threat intelligence, AI has a wide range of applications.

• Facial and speech recognition, spam or phishing detection, and virus detection are the most popular use cases.
• Pattern recognition technology can identify regulated personal data in need of protection.
• Unsupervised machine learning can categorize websites and identify high-risk sites.
• Unsupervised machine learning can find near-duplicates in phishing and spam attempts.

Selecting the Ideal AI-Based Solution

Putting AI at the heart of your company streamlines your daily tasks and transforms the way you do business, both in terms of learning and performance. Yet, investing in AI is a risky affair. It requires significant time, money, effort and a deep understanding of the multiple options available in the market today. However, to harness the maximum potential of AI, organizations need a solution tailored to their wants and needs. 51风流offers an array of听听that can be customized to meet these specific business needs of organizations and strengthen your competitive advantage in the digital age.
