Chennai, Sept 21 (KNN) The Tamil Nadu government has decided to set up a ‘plug and play’ manufacturing unit at Kancheepuram district.

The state government through this move aims to encourage start-ups and provide them with readymade facilities.

Unlike other existing industrial estates, the ‘plug and play’ manufacturing facility would provide readymade space where companies can start their production immediately.

The State-owned IT department's Electronics Corporation of India, in collaboration with Tidel Park, has been assigned the responsibility of overseeing the project. This state-of-the-art facility is situated within Sriperumbudur's Sipcot Aerospace Park, specifically in the Vallam Vadagal taluk.

“Any start-up or fresh manufacturing unit, whether it focuses on mobile or automobile sector, will have several formalities to identify a spacious land for manufacturing. Even after that, the production will take time since they need to purchase their required equipment,” a senior official from the department said.

“The ‘plug and play’ facility help save manpower and time, as it will come with ready-made facilities in more than 11 lakh square feet, and can accommodate around 100 companies,” the official added.

Originally, the establishment of the plug and play facility was planned for the year 2020.  (KNN Bureau)
