DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION
by Ir. Yim Hon Wa
Chairman, Consulting Engineering Special Interest Group
igital Transformation is the adoption of modern digital
D
technology to transform services or businesses by
replacing non-digital or manual processes with digital
processes or by replacing old technology with new digital
technology.
The aspect of digital transformation is the concept of
going paperless or reaching “digital business maturity” affecting both
individual businesses and segments of society such as government, mass
communications, arts, healthcare and science. In political, business,
trade, industry and media discourses, digitisation is defined as the
technical process of converting analog information into digital form (i.e.
numeric, binary format), as the term may also refer to manual information
digitisation. Digitalisation is the organisation process or business process of
technologically-induced change within industries, organisations, markets
and branches. Digitalisation of manufacturing industries has enabled
new production processes and much of the phenomena today known
as Internet of Things, Industrial Internet, Industry 4.0, machine to machine
communication, artificial intelligance and machine vision.
Digital transformation has created unique marketplace challenges
and opportunities as organisations must contend with nimble competitors
which take advantage of the low barrier to entry that technology provides.
In addition, due to the high importance given today to technology and its
widespread use, the implications of digitisation for revenues, profits and
opportunities have a dramatic upside potential.
EDITOR’S NOTE
CONTINUING THE GOOD WORK
by Ir. Prof. Dr Zuhaina binti Zakaria
Principle Bulletin Editor
t is an honour and a privilege for me to assume the
I
responsibilities as Editor of JURUTERA. I am grateful to the
Standing Committee on Information & Publication for giving
me this opportunity. On behalf of the editorial board, I would like
to thank my predecessor, Ir. Dr Bhuvendhraa Rudrusamy, who had
invested significant efforts to advance the profile of this monthly
bulletin. Given the success of the bulletin, the new Editorial Board
will not make any immediate or radical changes; however, we will continue to
publish relevant and current articles to meet the needs of our readers.
This month, JURUTERA highlights the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on
digital transformation. Since the first Movement Control Order was imposed
more than a year ago, COVID-19 cases continue to increase. The pandemic
has impacted all aspects of our life and due to the restricted movement,
working from home has now become the new standard.
In response, businesses and government offices have had to turn to
new technologies in order to continue their operations, albeit remotely in
many cases. Although technology has always been an important element
in the workforce, the pandemic has accelerated the adoption of digital
technologies and the trend is most likely to stay even after the pandemic.

6 JURUTERA THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS, MALAYSIA JUNE 2021


Can Malaysia capitalise
Q on the
intensive
rapid and
expansion
of the adoption of
4IR technologies to gain a
competitive advantage in its
more lucrative exports industries
against regional and global
competitors?
Since Malaysia launched
the National Policy on Industry
4.0 (Industry4WRD) in 2018,
there had been many initiatives
by the Government to attract
stakeholders, to create the right
ecosystem and to transform the
country’s industry capabilities
towards Industry 4.0. What are the
opportunities and threats for the
Government, Society and Industry
now?
For the last five decades, the
Malaysian Investment Development
Authority (MIDA), the Government's
principal investment promotion and
industrial development agency
under the Ministry of International
Trade & Industry (MITI), had assumed
a critical role in contributing to
Malaysia’s rapid industrial progress
in the manufacturing and services
sectors. MIDA keeps intensifying efforts
to secure sustainable investments
from domestic and foreign sources
to strengthen the nation’s economic
growth.
Industry 4.0 is already addressing
and creating solutions to global
resource and energy efficiency,
urban production and balancing
demographic change. It enables
continuous resource productivity
and efficiency gains across the
entire value network as innovative
technology leads to better policy-
making, more sustainable business
models, new jobs and income
opportunities.
In pushing the adoption
of Industry 4.0 technology, the
Government is investing on
infrastructure readiness as industry
players undertake the necessary
shift in their business processes. In
2019, the National Fiberisation &
Connectivity Plan was formulated in
response to the nation’s desire for
improved broadband quality and
coverage, lower broadband prices
and to provide Internet access for all
spectrums of society.
In January 2020, the Malaysian
Communications & Multimedia
Commission (MCMC) identified
700 MHz, 3.5 GHz and 26/28 GHz
as the pioneer spectrum bands
for the roll-out of 5G. In line with the
goal to implement 5G infrastructure
nationwide by 2023, MCMC,
along with other stakeholders and
companies (such as Celcom Axiata,
Digi Telecommunications, Edotco
Malaysia, Maxis Broadband, Telekom
Malaysia, U Mobile, Petroliam Nasional
and YTL Communications) are
currently running 5G demonstration
projects in 6 states, involving an initial
investment of RM143 million.
As the lead agency of MITI in
implementing strategies for Industry
4.0, MIDA is collaborating with TM One
for the deployment of high-speed
internet connection in industrial
areas. TM One, the enterprise and
public sector business arm of
Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM), has
successfully deployed high speed
broadband (HSSB) accessibility to
33 industrial areas in the Northern,
Southern and Eastern regions,
including Sabah and Sarawak, in
February 2021. This would allow
industries and businesses to leverage
on and keep up with the latest digital
transformation to remain relevant
as they rely heavily on internet
connectivity to be more productive,
efficient and competitive, enabling
greater automation and richer
insights through big data analytics.
The Government is also
aggressively creating awareness
of the importance of Industry
4.0 technology adoption and its
positive impacts on businesses. The
Government has introduced funds
to help reduce the financial burden
for companies willing to take the leap
forward and face the challenge of
Industry4WRD. There is an undeniable
urgency for companies to trust
JUNE 2021 THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS, MALAYSIA
COVER STORY
technologies and to strategically
adapt these disruptive technologies
to remain relevant and reduce low-
skilled labour dependencies.
Future machines will be
increasingly highly networked,
enabling work without boundaries
across the globe. This translates to a
knowledge revolution and a skilled
workforce will be the norm. Rather
than view machines and robots as a
threat to job security, society should
see these as an opportunity to
elevate the current positions through
knowledge upgrading and upskilling.
Hence, there is an urgent
need to invest in education and
training sectors to ensure there
is ample human capital supply
that is equipped with the proper
knowledge and technical expertise.
In addressing digital literacy among
Malaysians, a prerequisite for Industry
4.0 technology transformation is
the importance of technological
knowledge penetration through
education, starting with secondary
level education.
Local training institutes, such as
German Malaysia Institute (GMI),
Penang Skills Development Centre
(PSDC), Kedah Industrial Skills &
Management Development Centre
(KISMEC) and local universities
including Universiti Malaysia Perlis
(UniMAP), University Malaya (UM),
Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) and
Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM),
have been instrumental in offering
Industry 4.0-related programmes.
Malaysia is a popular destination
for ICT companies looking at
international market expansion and
global players IBM, HP, Intel, Huawei,
Microsoft and Oracle have already
made their move here. In 2019, Oracle
launched a Cloud Solution Hub in
Kuala Lumpur to help firms integrate
Blockchain, Machine Learning,
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data
Analytics. The successful operations
were attributed to the enabling and
progressive ecosystem in this country.
The presence of these MNCs opens a
gateway for homegrown companies
to develop competitive advantage,
JURUTERA 7
 COVER STORY
some in complementing services for
MNCs through knowledge transfer,
joint ventures and collaborations.
To compete with or to be in alliance
with these tech giants, Malaysian
companies must gain momentum
through sizable capital investment.
These companies can adopt a
consortium approach in bringing
local tech expertise together and
pool their resources to complement
each other. This partnership can gain
a sizeable market share and support
competitive advantage.
The Government is also
encouraging the utilisation of local
services provided by services and
manufacturing companies as this
will contribute to the domestic
growth and reduce the services
trade deficit. For instance, MITI has
imposed pre-conditions for the
issuance of Manufacturing Licences
for manufacturing projects to utilise
local engineering and architecture
services.
To further capitalise on the
progressive expansion on the
adoption of 4IR technologies, under
MyDIGITAL, the Government has set
up the national Digital Economy &
Fourth Industrial Revolution Council
(MED4IR) to monitor the growth of the
digital economy and the harnessing
of 4IR technology. It is the highest
administrative body for implementing
and reviewing the nation’s strategies
8 JURUTERA THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS, MALAYSIA
and initiatives for the digital economy
and 4IR.
The Council has also endorsed
the establishment of the Digital
Investment Office (DIO), a fully
collaborative digital platform
between MIDA and the Malaysia
Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC).
It aims to create awareness of digital
investments in the country and to
strengthen coordination among
all investment promotion agencies
(IPAs) in promoting and attracting
new digital investments.
MIDA is committed to working
closely with industrial players and
stakeholders to ensure the best
outcome for the people, businesses
and the economy.
What major changes
Q has Malaysia made to
its incentives package
to attract investments
that can accelerate economic
growth in the post pandemic era,
especially for industry sectors
where local engineering related
inputs under 4IR can be exploited?
The Government has cultivated an
investment-friendly environment with
competitive investment incentives
to ensure we remain a preferred
investment destination amidst the
COVID-19 pandemic. Continuous
revision and fine-tuning of business
JUNE 2021
policies are being made to make
Malaysia more competitive and
attractive.
Since the launch of the National
Policy on Industry4WRD, many
initiatives have been outlined
to drive digital transformation
across the manufacturing and
related services sectors. In 2020,
the Government announced the
National Economic Recovery Plan
or Pelan Jana SemulaEkonomi
Negara (PENJANA), with goals
that included protecting jobs and
empowering local businesses.
Through this initiative, new measures
and the enhancement of existing
measures for employers/companies
and employees/individuals were
introduced to support the reopening
of the economy under the "new
normal”.
Various incentives and grant
packages to attract new investments
are introduced especially for
investments involving the adoption
of 4IR, also known as “smart factory”
with cutting-edge development in
the digitisation and automation of
manufacturing processes.
MIDA is managing initiatives
of Intervention Fund (IF), Smart
Automation Grant (SAG), Domestic
Investment Strategic Funds (DISF)
and Automation Capital Allowance
(Automation CA) in aligning to
Industry 4.0 technology adoption.
Notably, the announcement
of PENJANA allows further
enhancements to the DISF and SAG
criteria and procedures.
DISF was established to
strengthen domestic investment
to ensure sustainable economic
growth. Funding options are offered
to companies for the training of the
local workforce, R&D activities carried
out in Malaysia, modernisation
and upgrading of manufacturing
or services facilities and tools,
obtaining of international standards/
certification and licensing or
purchase of new/high technology.
For the services sector, priority
sectors include architectural/

engineering services and ICT
solution providers which relate to
automation and Industry 4.0. MIDA
has expanded the scope of the
existing DISF which was targeted
at the manufacturing sector in
the initial years, to further include
selected services sub-sectors.
Among the eligible services sub-
sectors are development, calibration,
architectural, ICT solution providers
related to automation and Industry
4.0 and integrated green technology
projects. Under the National Budget
2019, the fund was further expanded
to assist companies undergoing the
Industry4WRD Readiness Assessment
to migrate into Industry 4.0.
Under the current PENJANA
scheme, the enhanced DISF
provides an avenue for second
round matching grant for eligible
companies that had been
previously approved for DISF grants.
This initiative, expanded until 31
December 2022, also includes
industries in the ecosystem of sectors
classified as of National Importance,
as compared to the existing
activities and products promoted
under the Promotion of Investments
Act, 1986. Other enhancements
include increased flexibility on the
equity ownership of at least 51 per
cent Malaysian-owned and special
increased ratio approval of training
grants and capital grants for the
purpose of Industry 4.0 technology
adoption to 70:30, whereby the
Government will finance 70% of the
approved expenditure while 30% will
be covered by the company.
The Smart Automation Grant
(SAG), on the other hand, was
introduced under PENJANA to help
local players adopt new processes
to improve operational and
manufacturing efficiencies through
high technology. The Government
initially allocated RM100 million to
assist SMEs and Mid-Tier Companies
(MTCs) to automate or digitalise
operations and trade channels.
Under the scheme, eligible
companies will be offered a grant
10 JURUTERA THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS, MALAYSIA
on a matching basis (1:1) based
on eligible expenditure, up to a
maximum RM1mil per company.
Since its launch in December 2020,
SAG has received overwhelming
response from the industry players.
As at March 2021, MIDA has received
over 200 applications, which has
surpassed the original projection.
To address the increase in demand
from the industry, MIDA was approved
additional funding of RM50 million
under the PEMERKASA initiatives to
support the next phase of economic
recovery this year.
Another exciting concept
is the Lighthouse Project being
championed by MIDA,in approaching
MNCs and local corporations which
have successfully gained from 4IR
transformation, to take up the initiative
to guide, facilitate and support local
manufacturing industries to also
venture into the 4IR processes to gain
business traction. This aligns with
the Government’s aspiration for the
country to be among the top Global
Manufacturing Nations. MIDA seeks
to seriously engage and propose to
companies that have successfully
adopted the Industry 4.0 key pillars in
their projects in Malaysia.
The foreign and local companies,
including MNCs, are encouraged
and provided with Government
JUNE 2021
support to “tailor-made facilities” in
establishing linkages and to develop
local vendors in leading these local
companies to take actionable steps
to advance into Industry 4.0.
In its on-going efforts, MIDA initiates
discussion and webinar sessions with
industry players, potential investors,
international chambers of commerce
and industry and associations. Initial
interests have been conveyed by
9 multinational corporations and
10 local companies to explore the
Lighthouse initiative.
MIDA is ready to discuss with
companies and industry stakeholders
to provide the best options for their
automation and digitisation journey.
Local engineering companies
such as machinery and equipment
producers as well as system
integrators can leverage on these
opportunities.
MIDA has also developed
i-Services Portal, a single market
place to link investors/companies
interested to source for domestic
services, with local service providers.

(like
MPMA)
indicated their needs
for transitioning to higher levels
of digitisation or automation
which can be satisfied through
more intensive application of 4IR
technologies?
To what extent can institutions
such as IEM and chambers/
associations help Malaysian
industries and investors to make
the country at least a regional
leader in the adoption of 4IR on
an accelerated basis?
It is important to highlight that MIDA
does not only focus on FDI. Domestic
investments play a significant role to
ensure Malaysia remains competitive
and relevant on our path to recovery
amidst this pandemic. The pandemic
has compelled an inevitable
shift towards digitalisation and
automation. Businesses are under
pressure to adapt quickly to this new
normal and it has accelerated the
need for us to leverage on digital
technologies to develop better
business practices and approaches.
The implementation of
Industry4WRD sees the expansion of
MNCs and SMEs in accelerating the
Industry 4.0 technology adoption.
Among the factors contributing to
this development is the presence
of solution providers within the
ecosystem and existing industry
players which are ready to take on
the challenge to adopt Industry
4.0 technology. However, there is
still plenty of room for improvement.
The Government can connect
stakeholders to work together
and to share their knowledge and
resources through collaborations to
complement each other.
As partners to investors, MIDA
boasts of having a close working
relationship with industry players on
the ground. Hence, despite COVID-19
and the restrictions imposed on
movement and gatherings, MIDA has
remained resilient and responsive
in providing advice and support to
existing and potential companies. In
2020, MIDA successfully held over 500
online engagements with local and
foreign stakeholders through various
online platforms and digital tools
were utilised to ease investors and
to sustain confidence in Malaysia
during these challenging times.
Dialogues with local industry
associations such as FMM, MPMA
and NCCIM have witnessed their
members highlighting the need to
transition. Among the most common
area of concerns raised are:

THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

JOURNEY

by Ir. Dr Tan Chee Fai Dr Mazlina Shafii H.E. David Khor Mr Vincent Oh
Kok Loon

e are moving towards a faster paced, borderless

W
world where convergence, personalisation, being
more informed, higher expectations as well as
cost-effectiveness and knowledge are power. Various
factors have influenced the development and adoption of
technology in order to improve productivity and economic
growth.
The severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact
on business worldwide are unprecedented. It has caused
companies to shut down, supply chain disruptions, weak
financial performance, retrenchment, etc. However, it has
also become the catalyst for the digital transformation of
Malaysian industries.
Malaysia has embraced the Industry 4.0 journey
with various initiatives, such as National Policy on Industry
4.0 (Industry4WRD), National IoT Strategic Road Map,
Malaysia Productivity Blueprint, Establishment of Digital
Free Trade Zone(s) and Malaysia Digital Economy
Blueprint 2021 (MyDigital). We are in a good position
to recover from COVID-19 as we have these Digital
Transformation initiatives and the process of integrating
digital technologies into the national economy had
started before the pandemic.
Still, strong commitment from the government and
industries are necessary to lead the Malaysian economy
by creating inclusive, high-quality growth through
nationwide digitalisation initiatives that are aligned with
our national policies. In addition, the industry also needs
to have a positive as well as right mindset for the Digital
Transformation journey.
Digital Transformation is transformation based on
digitisation and digitalisation that further touches a
company’s core business and is aimed at creating a
new business model in line with current needs. It is the
development of digital technology and supporting
capabilities to create a new digital business model. There
are three phases of Digital Transformation development
(Figure 1):
1. Digitisation Conversion: Information digitisation,
analogue data to 01 binary
2. Digital Upgrade: Process digitalisation, typically
incorporating various IT application systems
3. Digital Transformation: Business digitalisation, typical of
Amazon and Apple
Figure 1: Phases of Digital Transformation
At the same time, another key description is given for
Digital Transformation, which is that it enables a company
to redefine its business systematically and comprehensively
on information technology (IT), operation technology (OT)
and communication technology (CT) as well as to redefine
all aspects of organisational activities, processes, business
models, and employee capabilities.
The Digital Transformation concept emphasises the
application of digital technology and the reshaping of
business processes or business models. Business reshaping
is the fundamental goal and digital technology is just
a tool to support the company strategy and business
development.
NATIONAL POLICY ON INDUSTRY 4.0
Launched on 31 October 2018, the National Policy
on Industry 4.0 (Industry4WRD) aims to transform the
manufacturing sector and related services. Industry4WRD

16 JURUTERA THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS, MALAYSIA JUNE 2021


covers the period from 2018 to 2025. The Ministry
of International Trade & Industry (MITI) has been
responsible for the development of the Industry4WRD
policy since 2017, working with the Ministry of Finance,
Ministry of Multimedia & Communications, Ministry of
Human Resources, Ministry of Education and Ministry
of Science Technology & Innovation as well as various
agencies, industries and stakeholders. The policy has
three visions and is aimed at making Malaysia:
• A strategic partner for smart manufacturing and
related services in the Asia Pacific
• A primary destination for investment in the high value
and high technology industry
• A total solutions provider for cutting-edge technology.
The objectives were formulated on three main
foundations: Attract (A), Create (C) and Transform (T).
• Attract (A): To attract stakeholders to shift towards
Industry 4.0 applications and technologies, thereby
enhancing Malaysia’s attraction as a preferred location
for smart manufacturing
• Create (C): To create a holistic ecosystem to support
the adoption of Industry 4.0 by industries and to
coordinate existing initiatives in various related aspects
such as talent and workforce, funding, infrastructure
and regulation
• Transform (T): To enable a holistic transformation of
the manufacturing sector to increase and strengthen
productivity, cost efficiency, technology applications
and innovation ability, development of local
technology and development of more highly-skilled
workers.
The primary enablers of the Industry4WRD policy can be
accorded the acronym F.I.R.S.T.
• F: Funding and Outcome-based Incentives
• I: Enabling Ecosystem and Efficient Digital Infrastructure
• R: Regulatory Framework and Industry Adoption
• S: Upskilling Existing and Producing Future Talents
• T: Access to Smart Technologies and Standards.
There are 13 strategies and 38 action plans. One of
the main programmes is the Industry4WRD Readiness
Assessment programme, which assesses the level of
readiness of an organisation in its shift towards Industry 4.0.
Its main objectives are:
• To create a guideline on the level of readiness in an
organisation for the usage of Industry 4.0 elements
• To identify areas of improvement in every dimension
measured
• To recommend further actions to enhance efficiency
and productivity
• To develop a baseline for adoption by the industry.
The adoption of Industry 4.0 will assist the industry,
especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs),
to increase efficiency and productivity in order to remain
relevant and competitive at domestic and global levels.
The Industry4WRD policy will encourage the development

of Malaysian products and services using innovative
manufacturing capabilities based on technology.
CONNECTIVITY-DATA-INTELLIGENCE
The digitalisation approach should be based on top-
level and holistic design, combined with the core
competitiveness of enterprise, such as product design
capabilities and future industrial interconnection as
well as ecological development directions. Digitalisation
is based on a company’s strengths and weaknesses, to
determine its business strategy and goals. The essence of
digital transformation has 3 main aspects.
Connectivity: All things are interconnected, solving the
problem of connecting people with people, people with
things and things with things.
Data: Interoperability is generated after the connectivity
and the interoperability will generate data.
Intelligence: Data is processed and refined for intelligent
analysis and applications.
Connectivity solves fundamental interoperability issues
through the business interoperability to capture data,
cloud storage, data analytics and cloud computing to
provide valuable feedback and business insight to the
top management. At the same time, data continues to
accumulate and further provides services for intelligent
analysis applications such as machine learning and deep
learning.
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION FRAMEWORK
In the digital transformation framework of an enterprise
(Figure 2), operation is supported by the core business
value chain, technology support and organisational support.
Operational support: : The core business value chain is
continuously improved, based on data-driven thinking with
the goal of creating and enhancing value.
Technology support: This includes Internet of Things
(IoT), Big Data Analytics (BDA), Cloud Computing, Building
Information Modelling (BIM) and digital twins etc., as well
as the digital middle platform that integrates the digital
support with the business needs.
Organisational support: Includes organisation,
personnel, culture, process and other content.
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION JOURNEY
Malaysia launched Industry4WRD at MITI Tower in 2018.
Many local manufacturers are aware of Industry 4.0 and
its potential for value enhancement. This is Malaysia’s
response to the call for Digital Transformation of the
manufacturing sector and its related services by facilitating
companies to embrace the 4th Industrial Revolution (4IR)
in a systematic and comprehensive manner as well as to
be smarter and stronger through people, processes and
technology. However, two years after its launching, many
SMEs are still unable to translate their acquired knowledge
to actionable transformation plans due to various factors.

A Digitisation Self-Diagnostic Tool is an online survey tool that can be

used as the first step to understanding the digitisation readiness of an
enterprise. This tool has been cross-referenced with other survey tools from
TUV SUD, IMPULS Foundation of the German Engineering Federation (VDMA),
Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) the University of Warwick, Economic
Development Board (EDB) Singapore and MITI. The Digitisation Self-Diagnostic
tool is based on 3 cores, 8 focus areas and 15 elements (Figure 3).

Figure 3: The Digitisation Self-Diagnostic tool

The Machinery & Equipment Productivity Nexus (MEPN), Malaysia

Productivity Corporation (MPC), has developed the Productivity1010
programme to assist SMEs to answer their concerns about using the
Digitisation Self-Diagnostic tool and this has established 4 key principles of
prioritisation: Reality Check/Gap Analysis, Return on Investment, Review of
Key Performance Indices and Reference to Best Practice. These principles,
known as the 4Rs prioritisation framework, help SMEs to understand the
digitisation areas where improvements made will deliver the greatest value
enhancement. This will allow enterprises to start, scale and sustain their Digital
Transformation journey in the right direction.
The Productivity1010 programme is aimed at helping enterprises
approach prioritisation in a systematic way that is robust and
comprehensive. To assist local SMEs translate the principles into practice,
a Prioritisation Matrix has been developed by MPC MEPN, with the support

The next phase of the Productivity1010 programme focuses on project-

based assessment for Proof of Concept (PoC) initiatives. A technical
expert will intervene in the Digital Transformation of a company and
coordinate the PoC such as IoT. The technical expert will provide training
under MyReskill programme about the PoC technology and guide the
company in implementing PoC in its operations. The technical expert plays
an important role to hand-hold the company in its digital transformation
journey. The expected outcome will be the validation of the PoC in practice
on-site, enhanced productivity growth for SMEs, enhanced digitalisation
capabilities of SMEs and showcasing the success of the PoC.
Engagement with a Digital Transformation Consultant (DTC) will
enable greater understanding of the context and give a better insight
into a company’s operation as well as connect it with niche specialists
and technology partners which are the best fit for its business needs. It is
very important to engage a consultant with a combination of technical
knowledge, change management skills and implementation experience.
The DTC plays an important role in assisting the company to create a
clear strategy and roadmap of its Digital Transformation journey. The DTC will
be able to identify any gap in the Digital Transformation process as well as
be an integral part of the process. A DTC will understand both the current
traditional and the desired digital side of the business and will assist with
change management in the company by designing a tailored strategy. A
good DTC can formulate cost-effective solutions, solve complex business
challenges and drive continuous improvement in the company.

IMPACT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
AND DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN A
POST PANDEMIC WORLD
by Ir. Tejinder Singh
hen one thinks of Artificial Intelligence (AI), one
W
sees a distant, futuristic setting similar to what
we see in science fiction movies. However, the
lines between current reality and fiction have blurred. AI is
changing the world and the lives of people; it has become
the engine of growth for businesses and economies
around the world. When we do a Google Search or engage
with a chatbot on a shopping website, we are already
interacting with an AI-based tool.
AI and Digital Transformation are among new terms
that engineers have faced in the last half decade.
Currently graduating and future engineers are asking
present practitioners about the impact these enabling
technologies have on the engineering profession going
forward. Is it still worth the while to pursue engineering
as a career in view of the rapid pace of technological
development? Clients of such engineering services are
already asking engineers how these technologies can help
improve and optimise their businesses.
This article explores the impact that AI and Digital
Transformation will have on the engineering profession. First
a primer on some related definitions.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the science and
engineering of making intelligent machines, especially
intelligent computer programs. It is related to the similar
task of using computers to understand human intelligence,
but AI need not be confined to methods that are
biologically observable. AI is intelligence demonstrated by
machines and the term is often used to describe machines
that mimic cognitive functions that are associated with
the human mind, such as learning and problem solving.
AI has several sub fields: Machine Learning (ML) and Deep
Learning (DL).
Machine Learning is the study and application of
computer algorithms that improve automatically through
experience and by the frequent and repeated use of data.
It is a branch of AI and computer science. ML algorithms
JUNE 2021
FEATURE
build a model based on sample data, known as “training
data”, in order to make predictions or decisions without
being explicitly programmed to do so. ML algorithms are
used in a wide variety of applications such as in medicine,
email filtering and computer vision.
Deep Learning is a class of machine learning
algorithms that uses multiple layers to progressively extract
higher-level features from the raw input. DL became
popular in 2016 when AlphaGo beat the then reigning Go
world champion Lee Sedol*.
Perhaps a quote by a leading researcher, entrepreneur
and practitioner of DL, Andrew Ng, is pertinent at this point.
About a century ago, we started to electrify the world
through the electrical revolution. By replacing steam-
powered machines with those using electricity, we
transformed transportation, manufacturing, agriculture,
healthcare and so on. Now, AI is poised to start an equally
large transformation on many industries. For example, the
IT industry (like Baidu) is totally transformed by AI. FinTech is
also being totally transformed. Healthcare is starting to be,
and there are huge opportunities there. Self-driving is an
industry built on AI. Other industries, like search engines and
food delivery, are also supported by AI. The only industry
which will not be transformed will probably be hairdressing.
AI is the new electricity. – Andrew Ng
*In response to the match, the South Korean government
announced on 17 March 2016 that it would invest $863
million (1 trillion won) in AI research over the next five years
Digital Transformation is the adoption of digital
technologies to transform services or businesses through
the replacing of non-digital or manual processes with
digital processes or replacing older digital technology
with newer digital technology. At the heart, Digital
Transformation is a set of rapidly evolving and converging
technologies that pushes the boundaries of technology
adoption, technologies such as cloud computing,
cybersecurity, IoT and AI.

The term is also widely used in some sectors to refer to
modest initiatives such as putting services online or legacy
modernisation. McKinsey defines Digital Transformation
as “an effort to enable existing business models by
integrating advanced technologies”. Basically, it allows
digital technologies to be integrated into already existing
business models, changing the way organisations operate
and deliver products or services. MIT’s George Westerman
posits that Digital Transformation marks a radical
rethinking of how an organisation uses technology, people
and processes to fundamentally change business
performance. The old term for Digital Transformation is
Industry 4.0.
ARE WE READY TO TRANSFORM?
Digital Transformation is among several crucial initiatives
that many businesses have pursued or are embarking
on. The perfect storm of a wide range of technologies, i.e.
the nine pillars of Digital Transformation such as Additive
Manufacturing, Robotics, Industrial IoT, Augmented Reality
(AR), Big Data, Cyber-Physical Security etc., is playing a
crucial role in the Digital Transformation of companies. AI
and the various sub-fields will be the key technologies to
propel organisations in their Digital Transformation.
Though AI started in 1956, its tools and techniques
only made a tremendous leap forward recently with the
advent of better processing power and hardware and the
availability of a huge amount of data.
To put it in perspective, according to data compiled by
Visual Capitalist, a single internet minute in 2020 holds more
than 400,000 hours of video streamed on Netflix, more that
3.5 million video views on YouTube and nearly 42 million
messages shared via WhatsApp. Compare this with only 4
years earlier in 2016: 69,444 hours watched on Netflix, 2.78
million video views on YouTube and 20.8 million messages
shared on WhatsApp.
According to a recent study by the IDC, the suggestion
is clear that Digital Transformation, with the help of AI,
is the way to move forward. This stimulates the need to
pursue a plan to define a new AI-based operating model,
organisational structure, roles and communication
26 JURUTERA THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS, MALAYSIA
strategy to manage this transformation effectively. This is
because the data that comes from IoT devices and Digital
Transformation initiatives will have limited value without
AI-based technologies that are able to find valuable
information from the data generated.
To respond to the challenges of the Digital
Transformation economy, companies will have to grow
their AI/ML teams faster. AI involves teams with synchronous
communications, process automation and advanced
analytics, so professional profiles are required in each
of these fields, which are combinations of knowledge of
Telecommunications, Computer Science, Mathematics,
Statistics and Engineering. Any company that is
considering to implement AI technology, is advised to
start preparing its processes for the correct and effective
exploitation of AI models as soon as possible.
IMPACT ON ENGINEERING
Just like with many other industries, AI/ML/DL is changing
perceptions and practices in engineering. Even though
these technologies are now seemingly pervasive and
ubiquitous, we shouldn’t overlook how truly remarkable
they are and the incredible things they enable us to do
today and will allow us to do tomorrow. For engineers, AI
may cause the tasks they do to evolve rapidly and to help
them do things they weren’t capable of doing before.
AI in the engineering sector uses both software and
hardware components. As machines become more
complex, they will be able to impact not only smart
production lines and complex manufacturing tasks but
will also be able to design and improve tasks over time —
with little or no human intervention — through machine
learning. Car manufacturers have been using robots in
the production line for quite some time to improve output
quality and productivity and these have gone from
completing simple engineering tasks to handling many
precision moves required for some of the most intricate
parts of the process.
Tasks that engineers are responsible for can be
enhanced with the support of AI tools. One example is
Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Building Information
Modelling (BIM) which is now a fundamental part of the
daily design workflow. Tools like these will improve the
capabilities of engineers to constantly seek new designs
and optimisation options that were not possible before.
Another way AI can support engineering tasks is
to break down silos between departments and to help
effectively manage data to glean insights from it. AI can
provide automation for low-value tasks, while freeing
up engineers to perform higher-value tasks. By using ML
techniques to discover patterns in the data, machines will
be of incredibly important help in engineering judgment.
Next, we will discuss the impact of AI and Digital
Transformation in two engineering disciplines, electrical
and mechanical engineering.

We can now look at a power system with fine granularity

The AI contribution is in the power of intelligent predictive
decision making, accelerating automating industrial
processes.
Digital Twin is another area where AI and Digital
Transformation are playing a transformative role. A Digital
Twin is a real-time virtual replication of physical models
using algorithms. It can be anything, from a product, a
process or a service and has become cost-effective with
IoT. It is like having your best product technicians with the
most advanced monitoring, analytical and predictive
capabilities at their fingertips and it can be used for
everything, from electric vehicles and aircraft to new
developments.
Another area where mechanical engineering takes
advantage of AI and Digital Transformation is in 3D Printing.
This rapid design and production method for making
prototypes has grown so rapidly that the effect is being
felt in many other industries outside the engineering fields,
especially in medical and healthcare services.
The application of AI and Digital Transformation in
sustainable or green manufacturing minimises waste and
reduces the negative impact on the environment. It involves
adopting practices that influence the process design,
product design and operational principles.
ENGINEERS, AI AND DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION
While there are many benefits of AI in engineering, some
engineers are concerned that their jobs will be taken over
by machines. Automation has and will continue to take
over jobs that humans have done traditionally; however,
this will free humans to do higher-level and creative tasks
as well as take over jobs that require the unique skills of
human creativity and innovation that don’t even exist yet.
In a study by Stanford University titled One Hundred
Year Study of Artificial Intelligence, there’s nothing
imminent about the threat to jobs and, even when or if we
get there, it will be balanced out by the positive impacts
on society and the increased capabilities the technology
offers.
Kai-Fu Lee, in his book, AI Superpowers, postulates that
many jobs will be lost, jobs that require low dexterity and
structured environment, so tellers, cashiers, dishwashers,
entry level translators will be at a higher risk of replacement
in the next few years. Jobs such as physical therapists
and home-care nurses are likely to be out of reach of
automation in the foreseeable future. Jobs such as
scientists and engineers that rely on manual dexterity in
unstructured environments will have some tasks taken
over by AI and automation, giving opportunities for these
creative professionals to use AI to accelerate their progress.
Engineers need to prepare to enhance their
exploitation of AI and Digital Transformation, when factory
automation, big data, additive manufacturing, smart
28 JURUTERA THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERS, MALAYSIA
technologies and cyber-physical security transform the
way we work. Engineers should also be prepared to exploit
the latest tools available to them and to learn how to
work alongside robots and smart machines. Engineers
must optimise the work that needs to be done so that the
benefits of interactions between humans and machines
are maximised.
AI and Digital Transformation are the foundation of
advanced engineering. While there remain questions, most
notably about how the roles of engineers will change, it
is futile to resist the transformation. There’s no doubt that
AI will help manage engineering data more efficiently
and it will be an essential component of engineering in
future. The sooner it’s adopted and adapted to, the sooner
engineering will be able to capitalise on the advantages of
these technologies.
Figure 3: Role of AI in engineering
WHAT’S NEXT IN A POST PANDEMIC WORLD?
The COVID-19 pandemic has taught us that life continues
even when most of the workforce is locked down. In fact, it was
through AI and Digital Transformation that certain businesses
were able to continue operations, albeit at a reduced
level. Tesla continued to produce electric vehicles. NASA
continued to proceed with the Mars Perseverance Lander
mission which culminated in a successful landing on Mars
this year. SpaceX successfully landed rockets on a drone
ship. Manufacturers who had already embarked on the AI
and Digital Transformation journey suffered very little as their
warehouses were remotely operated by robots.
AI and Digital Transformation are here to stay and
are fuelling a transformation to make businesses more
competitive and efficient. AI has already become a
strategic factor in generating sustained growth and
providing businesses with a competitive advantage. The
challenge is in how we will manage the changes needed
in the organisation structure, management culture and the
investment needed to develop the right skills so that the
workforce has the capability to adapt to this global trend
that is now the norm in our professional and personal lives.

is an ancient Buddhist temple in
Thailand built during the Ayutthaya
Period. It is located in Samut Songkhram
Province where Siamese King Taksin The
Great of the Thonburi Kingdom defeated
the invading Burmese army in 1768. After the
victory, King Taksin abandoned the place
and the temple was left to co-exist with the
surrounding trees.
Over the years, the roots of long-living trees
like Pho (bodhi or Ficus religiosa), Sai (banyan
or Ficus benghalensis), Krai (Dracaena
kaweesakii) and Krang grew and covered
the entire temple. The roots provide natural
protection and have kept the temple intact to
this day.
These are truly Mother Nature-engineered
walls. The overgrown roots also created the
impression that the temple was built inside
the trees. This is why Wat Bang Kung is also
popularly known as The Temple of Trees. There
is a statue of the Buddha located in the hall.
Devotees would walk around the statue and
paste gold papers on it to produce a shining

Thus, COVID-19 had impacted the industrial activity and stimulated the
industry to rethink their current business practices. One of the immediate
strategies for these businesses was to opt for digital adoption in order to
speed up their recovery from COVID-19 implications as well as to build up
resiliency and sustainability in their business.
In response to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Malaysia launched
Industry4WRD: National Policy on Industry 4.0 on 31 October 2018 to
drive the digital transformation of the manufacturing and related
services sectors in the country. MITI introduced various initiatives such
as Industry4WRD readiness assessment, Industry4WRD intervention
Our products:
programme and Industry4WRD Domestic Investment Strategic Funds
(DISF) programme. The set of shift factors of Industry4WRD are People,
Processes and Technology. The goal was to transform SMEs to achieve
labour productivity growth, higher manufacturing contribution to the
economy and an increment in innovation capacity and highly skilled
jobs. In addition, the National Economic Recovery Plan or Pelan Jana
SemulaEkonomi Negara (PENJANA) launched Smart Automation Grant
(SAG) in December 2020. The PENJANA SAG would assist and incentivise
SMEs and Mid-Tier Companies (MTCs) to automate and digitalise
operations, production and trade channels.
With the new normal arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, there
is a significant acceleration of Malaysian SMEs towards digital
transformation. The industry sector has already started to look for total
solutions that are able to reduce their pain points, such as low efficiency
in production, reliance on low skilled foreign workers, low production
volumes, long working hours and high defects rate. Digital Transformation
is one important option for SMEs to increase their competitiveness and
to promote sustainable growth. Digital Transformation is a journey, not a
destination. The right strategy and road map are important for SMEs in
their unique digital transformation journey.

T
he Institution of Engineers Malaysia (IEM) Perak
branch supported and sponsored the virtual Final
Year Project (FYP) poster competition organised by
UTAR Faculty of Engineering & Green Technology (FEGT),
Kampar Campus.
The annual event, held on 21 April 2021, was aimed
at providing engineering students with a platform to
showcase the results of their FYP to the industry panel as
well as to encourage and strengthen the link between
local SMEs and the university to promote work-based
learning for the benefit of the students.
A total of 90 posters were submitted. The top winners
from each department then presented their works to a
panel of judges comprising Ir. Loh Ban Ho (Chairman, IEM
Perak Branch), Ir. Dr Mark Olvinis and Mr. Koh Kai Fei (IEM
Perak Young Engineers Section).
With this, the final-year students could communicate
and present their works as well as strengthen their
engineering knowledge during the question-and-answer
sessions. This was important to enable the university to
deep learning model for segmentation.
Chin Yun Tong, an Environmental Engineering student,
won 1st Runner-Up with her research topic, “Thermal
Activated Persulphate Oxidation on Landfill Leachate”,
which focused on using the activated persulphate
oxidation method to treat landfill leachate.
The 2nd Runner-Up was Wong Kai Meng from the
Construction Management Department for his poster
titled “Effective Risk Management Plan of Residential
Building Project during the Construction Stage in
Ipoh”. His study focused on identifying the significant
risks of residential building projects in Ipoh during
the construction stage and then investigating and
evaluating the current risk management practices
during this stage.
The virtual poster competition fostered a strong
collaboration between the industry and the university and
students were exposed to critical and industry-related
problems.

WORKSHOP ON RESUME WRITING

AND JOB INTERVIEWS

by Amanda Siaw

I
EM Monash Student Section organised a workshop
on resume writing and job interviews on 5 April 2021,
from 3pm to 5pm. It was held during the mid-semester
break so as to allow more students to take part in and to
benefit from the workshop. There was a total of 75 students,
including the committee members.
The main objective was to help students acquire a
better understanding of how to write an impactful resume
and how to effectively prepare for a job interview.
The two speakers had vast experience in recruiting
employees for the award-winning engineering company,
Gamuda Berhad. The first speaker, Mr Keith Gabriel Gan,
explained the differences between a CV and a resume. Pictures of speakers and participants at the end of the sessions

He then shared techniques on how to prepare an

effective resume that would contain the right information.
The second speaker, Encik Muhammad Afiq Coppey,
talked about how to prepare for a job interview and what
to expect. He said an interviewee should be mentally
prepared, be honest and to anticipate potential basic
and hard questions. He also shared the dos and don’ts of
an interview.
The presentation ended in a Q&A session. The
workshop was also a great opportunity to promote IEM
Monash Student Section to the participants, many of
whom had yet to sign up as members. It was an insightful
afternoon for everyone. IEMMSS hopes to organise more
similar events in the future.

ZHAOZHOU BRIDGE:
1,400-YEAR-OLD
ENGINEERING MARVEL
Zhaozhou Bridge
4
5kms to the west of
Shijiazhuang, the capital city
of China’s Hebei province, is a
park that has been uniquely named
after a bridge in it. It took my wife, my
son and I about an hour to get there
by bus from Shijiazhuang, during a
trip that we made at the end of June
12 years ago.
We were then travelling by
train over a period of 3½ months
from Malaga, our starting point in
southern Spain, to Ho Chi Minh City
in Vietnam, passing through much of
Europe, Russia and China, on what
was believed to be the longest train
journey in the world.
What attracted us to visit this
park during that trip was not the
park itself but the bridge. Zhaozhou
Bridge was named after the county
where it was located. Also known as
Anji Bridge, it has a long history. It was
constructed between AD595 and
605 during the Sui Dynasty, almost
ENGINEER'S ADVENTURES
1,420 years ago. It is a single-span
masonry bridge with an arch that
spans a distance of 37.37m. The total
length of the bridge is about 50m.
When almost all contemporary
bridge builders believed that only
arches in the form of a semi-circle
would be strong and stable enough to
withstand their own weight and carry
the superimposed loads, the shallow
arch of the Zhaozhou Bridge was
hailed as an engineering milestone
at that time.
The man who received accolades
for this extraordinary achievement
was an exceptionally skilled mason
named Li Chun. His ingenuity in
the design and construction of this
bridge could be seen in two areas:
Firstly, he achieved the wide span of
the bridge by using 28 parallel and
abutting arches, each formed with
massive, precisely-cut and wedged
limestone voussoirs where joints
were strengthened with wrought-

Ir. Chin Mee Poon
Ir. Chin Mee Poon is a
retired civil engineer who
derives a great deal of joy and
satisfaction from travelling to
different parts of the globe,
capturing fascinating insights
of the places and people he
encounters and sharing his experiences with
others through his photographs and writing.
iron cramps or bars. Secondly, the
spandrels over both sides of the main
arches were constructed with two
small arched openings to reduce
weight as well as the lateral forces on
the bridge due to flood waters.
These novel design features and
construction techniques have not
only given the bridge tremendous
strength but have also provided it with
the flexibility required to withstand
earthquakes.
The bridge had undergone a
number of repairs over the years;
the 8th and last repair job was
completed in 1958. However, the main
structural elements of the bridge
have survived the ravages of several
wars, floods and earthquakes and
have remained practically intact. The
bridge continues to serve its original
function of bridging the Xiao River.
Zhaozhou Bridge may not be
imposing or awe-inspiring in size or
appearance, but its significance lies
in the fact that it marks a milestone
in the long history and evolution of
bridge engineering. Today, Zhaozhou
Bridge is China’s oldest standing
bridge as well as the world’s oldest
open-spandrel segmental arched
masonry bridge. In 1991, the
American Society of Civil Engineers
dedicated the bridge as an
International Historic Civil Engineering
Landmark.
I am truly pleased to have had
the opportunity to visit yet another
engineering masterpiece during my
travels. The advancements made in
the design and construction of this
bridge have indeed enhanced my
sense of pride in being a member
of the great profession of civil
engineering.
