“…Whenever the problem is in multi-criteria decision making domain, ANP has facilitated the decision making process. Some of the ANP application areas studied are: maintenance strategy selection in mining industry (Pourjavad et al, 2013), knowledge management (Percin, 2010), performance measurement (Chen et al, 2012), Operational strategy selection job shop (Sharma and Garg, 2015), vendor-selection (Vinodh et al, 2011), supplier selection (Arunkumar et al, 2011), evaluation of alternative industrial robots (Rehman and Al-Ahamri, 2013), cellular manufacturing systems (Kodali et al, 2014) inventory management of items (Shamsaddini, 2015;Kabir and Hasin, 2013), supply-chain (Agarwal et al, 2006), vocational-education (Chen et al, 2004), manufacturing-systems (Dagdeviren, 2010) and civil-pilot selection (Yazgan and Ustun, 2011). In the present paper, ANP was found to be the most appropriate technique for determining the right priority structure for manufacturing growth in India.…”

The purpose of the paper has been to analyse the role, the impact and setting up right priorities of the 13 growth factors involved in accelerating India's manufacturing sector growth. An analytic network process (ANP) framework has been developed with a goal of accelerating Indian manufacturing growth which is influenced by eight key-drivers and five manufacturing industry-segments. In order to find the comparative weights of the factors, a questionnaire-based survey was carried out on 42 experts from the top-management of industry, consultancy and academia. In the current low manufacturing growth rate environment, the Indian manufacturing industry segments needing high priority are: resource-intensive, global technology and innovation and global innovation for local-market. The vital-few five key-drivers for fast-tracking manufacturing growth are: good-governance, technology-deployment, core-infrastructure, investment and financing and worker-skill. The application of ANP approach has provided some useful insights to the policy-makers on setting the priorities for the Indian manufacturing strategy.
