QAD | Redzone, a global leader in intelligent, adaptive cloud solutions, today celebrated its 20th anniversary in India by unveiling the next generation of its manufacturing platform. The announcement, made at the Champions of Manufacturing India 2025 summit, introduces Champion AI, a breakthrough Agentic AI engine designed to transform traditional systems of record into proactive "systems of action."
Two Decades of Partnership and Strategic Growth
Since entering the Indian market in 2005, QAD | Redzone has supported manufacturers across the automotive, life sciences, food and beverage, and high-tech sectors. Over the past two decades, India has evolved from a regional market into a core global engineering hub, directly shaping the company’s product direction.
"Completing 20 years in India is a reflection of the trust and long-standing partnerships we've built with Indian manufacturers," said Sanjay Brahmawar, CEO of QAD | Redzone. "India's manufacturing energy is unmatched—ambitious, capable, and ready to lead. As we enter manufacturing's most critical decade, our focus is clear: deliver practical, high-impact innovation that helps manufacturers move faster, empower their people, and execute with confidence. Champions of Manufacturing in Mumbai brings tangible strategies—not theory—enabling frontline productivity and results at Champion Pace."
The Three Pillars of Modern Manufacturing Execution
The company’s next-generation platform is anchored by three core pillars designed to address labor shortages and supply chain volatility:
Adaptive ERP: An intelligent, flexible digital backbone built for speed and measurable business impact.
Redzone Connected Workforce: Empowering frontline teams to drive productivity and quality directly on the factory floor.
Champion AI: Agentic AI that amplifies human decision-making and orchestrates real-time action across operations.
India as a Global Innovation Hub
The role of Indian engineering was a focal point of the summit. Rajeev Purohit, GM India & Head of Engineering, highlighted the country’s pivotal role in the company’s global roadmap.
"Twenty years of QAD India is a story of partnership and engineering excellence," said Purohit. "As we launch this next generation of solutions, India will continue to play a pivotal role in building and scaling products that power manufacturers worldwide. This celebration signals a new chapter powered by Champion AI, where we build from India for the world."
The summit concluded by demonstrating how these intelligent platforms enable manufacturers to modernize rapidly without the risks of traditional "rip-and-replace" transformations, ensuring the Indian industrial sector remains a global leader in the AI era.
