New Value for K-Manufacturing

Today, our manufacturing industry is facing a major turning point in a rapidly changing industrial environment. Uncertainty in the global supply chain, high cost structure, and low production efficiency show that the existing mass production-oriented system can no longer guarantee competitiveness. Amid these changes, it is becoming more important for the manufacturing industry to actively explore and apply new strategies and approaches.

Customized manufacturing with short delivery times is not a simple change in production methods, but a starting point for creating a new system and value in our manufacturing industry. Through a customer-centered, flexible and rapid production system, we can effectively respond to changes in the market and increase competitiveness with customized, high-value products.

The Korea Institute of Industrial Technology is implementing an efficient and flexible production system through a short-delivery customized manufacturing platform (KITECH Manufacturing Agent Platform, K-MAP). K-MAP is a manufacturing cooperation platform that quickly connects appropriate manufacturing partners at the time of need based on cooperation between companies and provides integrated support for the entire process from design to production and certification.

At K-MAP, manufacturing companies can gain new business opportunities, and demand companies can receive quick and efficient customized production services. Furthermore, this will serve as a foundation for overcoming the structural limitations of the domestic manufacturing ecosystem and accelerating the pace of innovation throughout the industry.

Through K-MAP, the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology will support companies to generate high profits, strengthen competitiveness, and achieve sustainable growth, and will fulfill its role as a central organization for manufacturing in Korea.

We will create a new future based on our technology and cooperation so that domestic manufacturing can become competitive in the global market again.
