I met Shahid Mughal more than two decades ago while executing a project for Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA).
Today I am proud by his willingness to share his great accumulated know how into a new venture, fostering know-how dispensation and trainings.
It is a fact that academia & theoretical education provides the foundation of knowledge & mathematical description of phenomena. At the same time it is also a fact that implementation of knowledge in working projects requires a parallel set of skills & capabilities.
Basically it is by complementing theory & practice that we can really innovate, create & implement. This apples to every discipline.
In the field of industrial automation, instrumentation, electrical systems, digital logic we are submerged by a universe of standards, method statements, different approaches, best engineering practices.
The experience accumulated in many years in the field can be a tremendous advantage for the recipient. From avoiding common errors to solution acceleration, the unit being created by Shahid can be of immense usefulness.

We first meant in Dubai, UAE some 20 years ago after I had completed & shipped AWEER Phase-II; a liquid fuel supply power project for a DEWA project in Dubai, during which time you were working for BEMCO. I was then working on a proposal to ETA for AWEER Phase-III & retained you, to represent us in that region & to provide technical & prof. support during the installation & commissioning of AWEER Phase-III. Your engineering and field service knowledge & support on these and other follow-on projects all ofer GCC was invaluable.
Your creation of "DigiSmart Centre of Excellence" to provide a means of transferring practical knowledge & field experience from engineers with, in many cases, decades of practical knowledge & experience to the next generation of new engineers is a great idea & I admire you for taking this initiative. In today's fast-paced digital world there is little or no time in our technical education institution's programs for providing any form of practical training, much less from people with decades of practical knowledge & experience. I see the gap between a new engineer's formal education & any kind of practical knowledge & experience becoming wider as time goes on with no means of resolving this increasingly more critical issue in many cases. Your initiative is definitely a much needed & welcomed sevice by industry everywhere.

Expertise and practical knowledge of Control and Electrical systems in power of process plants is extremely important. The right diagnosis of a problem can save huge number of man hours, plant shut downs and prevent failures which can save money and at times disasters too. Digi Smart Centre of Excellance intends to impart the practical knowledge required in the field. This type of training is rare and can not be given by theory only. This requires teachers and professionals who have themselves worked in the field, for which many people are not available these days. I think with exquisite experience of DigiSmart, it is fully capable of delivering the results. I am an engineer with 45 years of practical experience on large thermal power plants and heavy process plants and can very well assess the needs of this training. I have known Shahid for the past 35 years and have also worked along with him in the past and hold him in high esteem and professional competence.
