DYNA, vol. 88, pp. 101–109

Abstract

This article presents the scientific production over the last two decades concerning the terms Industry 4.0 and Maturity and introduces a conceptual framework for maturity evaluation based on the concept of industry 4.0 readiness. A bibliometric study based on the keywords Industry 4.0 and Maturity is conducted and main journals, authors, countries, and trends of maturity models are analyzed. Based on the analysis, a framework for measuring maturity to evaluate a company’s readiness for Industry 4.0 is introduced. The assessment enables companies to systematically increase the quality of their transformation by providing insights about their readiness level. The theoretical model suggests that the evaluation, when carried out with the detailed model, has the potential to allow companies to systematically increase the quality of their transformation by providing information on their level of readiness
