The Story
Current ICT Structure
The existing ICT infrastructure of the National Automotive Design and Development Council (NADDC) operates on a basic linear network model. It consists of xxxxx xxxxxxx and xxxxxxxxxxxx networks: a xxxx xxxx, a xxxxx xxxxx, and a xxxxxxx xxxxxxx. This fragmented setup limits efficiency, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.
Proposed Digital Transformation Plan
The proposed digital transformation initiative aims to establish a xxxxxxxxxx ICT network that integrates xxxxx, xxxxxx, and xxxxxxxx xxxxxx. This unified infrastructure is designed to enhance performance, streamline operations, and reduce overall operational costs.
Additionally, with the recent merger of the Council of Automotive Design and Development and the establishment of zonal offices, a comprehensive digital transformation framework is essential. This framework will ensure seamless connectivity between various branches and the head office, enabling efficient communication and coordination.
Additionally, the development of a xxxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxx is also proposed to support the growing technological needs and ensure secure and reliable data management.
Objectives of the Digital Transformation Master Plan
- Enhance Operational Efficiency and Service Delivery:

5. Ensure Business Continuity and Automation:
- Establish systems and processes that ensure the continuous operation of automated services, reducing downtime and enhancing reliability.
This digital transformation initiative is designed to position the NADDC for future growth, resilience, and technological leadership within the automotive development sector.
As a result, Company and its customers now reap the benefits of a merger that has generated remarkable efficiencies throughout the combined entities.
