Industry Ministry poised to launch i-industry systems

By The Nation

 

 

Industry Minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit said that he has ordered fragmented data records from various department stores to be centralised in the server of the Office of the Permanent Secretary for Industry.

 

This is according to the Big Data policy of the government. 

 

From January 1, 2020, the ministry will open an i-Industry system for four main services: queue registration for service at the central offices of the Industry Ministry, factory licence application, single form report, and payment service. 

 

Suriya added that the Ministry of Industry will continue to improve and by 2020 and 2021, he will accelerate the development and expansion of a modern Big Data centre.

 

The focus will be on facilitating entrepreneurs and the public as well as increasing the efficiency of services of all departments under the ministry to prevent government agencies from becoming outdated or being an obstacle to the competitiveness of Thai entrepreneurs in the fourth industrial revolution era.

 

"I appreciate the executives of the Ministry of Industry who joined and created the data centre in each department in order to accelerate the development of the "i-Industry" system using Big Data database. The system will be available on January 1, 2020," Suriya said.

Commendable BUT -

Unless those records are already digitally recorded (nothing in hard copy only?) in the same electronic format by the same electronic operating system, this effort is doomed to either prolonged expensive effort for conversion to the centralized server and/or extensive coding for compatibility with likelihood of failure.

In fact the centralized server may not be the best choice for these records depending on its technical history.

Best to choose a start date going forward for all new records to be digitally recorded into a central server that is compatible with the data storage requirements.
