subject: Adoption; COVID-19; IIoT; OEM
description: Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is witnessing a steady increase in adoption by infrastructure and process industries. Industrial equipment manufacturers are one of the key stakeholders in this digitalization journey. The adoption of IIoT by the equipment manufacturers has been slower due to various valid reasons. The present pandemic COVID-19 created disruption in the factory operations in many parts of the world. This consequence has been hard on the manufacturing industry including the equipment manufacturers, and many of their strategic projects are slowing down or derailed. In India, a strict lockdown of three weeks which was later extended for another seven weeks was by far the longest lockdown effecting the industry and the equipment manufacturers. This study probes the impact of COVID-19 on the mindset of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) towards adoption of IIoT. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
