60% quality error reduction, 2-week working capital improvement, ROI in first quarter across multiple sectors.
Based in Melbourne, Australia and Bengaluru, India. Deep understanding of India, ASEAN, and Australia/NZ markets.
Doctoral research uncovering what actually works for MSMEs in India and G20 emerging economies
Thesis: "Digital Public Intelligence: Fuelling AI adoption across MSMEs in India"
20 MSME participants • Manufacturing, Services, Healthcare • India-focused, G20-aligned • International examiner approval • June 2025
Systematically captures expert knowledge through structured models. Critical for workforce transitions and expertise transfer.
Result: Expert knowledge never lost, new employees reach expertise faster.
IoT + AI = real-time insights. 60% error reduction proven in research.
Impact: Transforms basic digitization into sophisticated operational intelligence.
Standardized interfaces enable seamless knowledge flow across organizational boundaries.
Result: Factory floor data instantly available to management, sales, finance teams.
During his doctoral research at the University of Southern Queensland, Dr. Iyer identified the Digital Public Intelligence (DPIQ) framework. This model recognizes that Indian businesses shouldn't have to build expensive, proprietary systems from scratch. Instead, DPIQ leverages India's world-class Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI)—like Aadhaar for identity, UPI for payments, and ONDC for commerce—as a foundation for intelligence.
The framework is built on a three-layer architecture:
Utilizing existing digital identity and payment rails.
Leverage Aadhaar infrastructure - no expensive custom development needed for KYC, employee verification, customer onboarding.
Save: Eliminate identity verification infrastructure costs.
Using standardized APIs to reduce implementation complexity.
DEPA and ONDC enable secure, compliant data exchange without custom API development.
Save: 30-40% reduction in integration costs vs traditional approaches.
Deploying AI agents for specialized decision support and automation.
Shared AI infrastructure and domain-specific models enable sophisticated capabilities affordably.
Scale: AI without proportional cost increases as business grows.
Dr. Iyer's research revealed that while AI could boost MSME productivity by up to 30%, the barriers to entry were too high for the average business owner. This inspired the development of a practical solution that bridges the gap between academic theory and operational reality.
Documented results across India, ASEAN, and Australia/New Zealand
India • Bengaluru • 50 employees • Manufacturing Sector
Challenge: Disconnected operations, no real-time visibility into production.
Solution: IoT sensors + domain-specific AI + DPI integration via DPIQ framework.
"The DPIQ framework helped us integrate our factory and office operations seamlessly. We now have real-time data access and monitoring capabilities we never thought possible with our budget."
ASEAN • Singapore • 80 employees • Retail E-Commerce
Challenge: Regional expansion across multiple ASEAN markets with diverse customer preferences and languages.
Solution: Custom LLM trained on regional customer data + multi-language support + localized recommendations.
"Domain-specific AI enabled us to understand customer preferences across Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia simultaneously. Our conversion rates improved 45% while reducing customer service costs by 60%."
Australia/NZ • Perth • 120 employees • Mining Operations
Challenge: Equipment downtime causing million-dollar losses, remote site operations, safety compliance.
Solution: IoT sensor network + predictive AI models + automated maintenance scheduling integrated with existing safety systems.
"The domain-specific AI learned our equipment patterns and geological conditions. We reduced unplanned downtime by 75% and prevented three potentially catastrophic failures in the first year. ROI exceeded projections by 200%."
