Impacts and challenges of industry 4.0 in manufacturing: a systematic literature review
The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences
The concept of Industry 4.0 emerged in Germany as a strategy for innovation and recovery of economic performance and has spread worldwide. The digital transformation proposed by Industry 4.0 is driven by intelligent manufacturing processes, digitalization, flexibility, integration of systems, and real-time analysis of big data generating intelligent processes and services oriented to customer needs. However, despite the opportunities produced by technological innovation, the fourth industrial revolution has established an environment of uncertainty in the labor market and business models reflected throughout the social sphere. Thus, this study aimed to identify the potential impacts and challenges of Industry 4.0 through a systematic literature review (SLR). Our findings pointed to seven potential impacts of Industry 4.0 on manufacturing: (i) environmental, (ii) competitive, (iii) economic, (iv) education, (v) labor market, (vi) business models, and (vii) social. Additionally, six p...

Industry 4.0: critical investigations and synthesis of key findings
Management Review Quarterly
The concept of Industry 4.0 has been one of the most debated and trending topics over the last few years. Progressively, it has attracted the attention of academicians, practitioners, and policymakers worldwide. However, there needs to be more systematic review of research in the current literature that captures the current state of this new paradigm. This study aims to address this gap by conducting a comprehensive review of Industry 4.0 previous studies to identify its technological, organisational, and managerial enablers, as well as its implementation challenges and benefits. A systematic literature review was conducted, in which 244 peer-reviewed journal papers were analysed in the Scopus database until the end of May 2022. This study excluded conference papers, book chapters, and journal papers not written in English. The study indicated that industry 4.0 is still an immature topic, and applying this new paradigm is not a matter of technology only. Organisational and managerial aspects should be considered. Additionally, the transition towards Industry 4.0 is a complex task, many obstacles exist, and manufacturing companies should be aware of these challenges for successfully implementing this new paradigm. The obtained results in this study synthesise recent studies published on Industry 4.0 and provide a comprehensive picture of Industry 4.0 and potential research directions for future research. Also, this study offers significant guidelines for managers interested in implementing Industry 4.0.

Review of Socio-technical Considerations to Ensure Successful Implementation of Industry 4.0
Procedia Manufacturing, 2017
The paper reviews the Industry 4.0 infrastructure and that beyond the potential cost and efficiency gains from implementation, adoption is argued from the perspective of leveraging internal capabilities to devolve Industry 4.0 as the driver for creating competitive advantage. Industry 4.0 and lean manufacturing methods are presented as mutually supportive, where lean methods are enablers for Industry 4.0 implementation, and conversely, Industry 4.0 realizes the extended lean enterprise. The paper further argues that in addition to appreciating the technical aspects of Industry 4.0, it is necessary to understand the socio-technical requirements to ensure successful implementation.
Industry 4.0: A Systematic Review of Surveys
Southern African Business Review
The advent of Industry 4.0 has heralded a new era for manufacturing, and hence, the aim of this study was to ascertain the extent to which the phenomenon is being embraced by businesses in different regions of the world. The primary objective of the study was to establish business executives’ perceptions on the extent to which their organisations are aware of and the extent to which their organisations would be influenced by Industry 4.0. The secondary objectives were to ascertain business executives’ perceptions regarding the areas of business that would be most impacted by Industry 4.0 and their organisation’s intention to invest in Industry 4.0. The methodology entailed a systematic literature review (SLR) of 10 industry surveys. The findings from the surveys were synthesised to reveal that there was generally a high degree of awareness regarding the Industry 4.0 phenomenon with the degree of influence being perceived to have the greatest impact on operational effectiveness, prod...
Industry 4.0 is an emerging technological innovation inspired by the advent of intelligent systems such as the internet of things, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems and smart manufacturing. However, its implementation faces significant challenges such that understanding the crucial factors in its successful integration into organisational processes becomes an interesting point of departure. Thus, this paper establishes a list of critical success factors (CSFs), mostly derived from the general innovation domain, that would aid in organisational strategy development in implementing Industry 4.0. As such, 29 CSFs from the relevant domain literature are initially extracted from 78 published articles. By removing redundant and irrelevant CSFs, a list of seven CSFs is established. This work contributes to the literature as it is one of the relatively few papers to develop a list of CSFs devoted to Industry 4.0. Stakeholders would find it beneficial as it provides them a framework in facilitating the adoption process efficiently.
A Theoretical Framework for Industry 4.0 and Its Implementation with Selected Practical Schedules
Energies, 2021
In recent years, there has been dynamic changes in the industrial environment as a result of further innovations called Industry 4.0 (I.4.0), especially in the field of digital technology and manufacturing. Despite numerous examples of the implementation of Industry 4.0 in enterprises, there is no general framework for the implementation of Industry 4.0 with a detailed schedule. Researching the ways of implementing Industry 4.0 is still a current and unexplored area of research. The main aim of the paper is to present the concept of the theoretical framework for Industry 4.0 implementation based on selected schedules of the Industry 4.0 implementation. The paper was based on information from literature review and analysis of pilot enterprise projects to Industry 4.0 (case study) that were conducted in selected enterprises. The paper presents the key components of the framework of Industry 4.0 and the basic stage of implementing the concept in the enterprises, paying attention to the...

Industry 4.0 (I4.0) is not an exceedingly new concept. Since the term was coined in Germany in 2011 it has come to encompass many enabling technologies around the digitalisation of manufacturing processes growing further into the service industry and beyond. The need for businesses to begin to explore these options to reap the benefits of I4.0 is growing and while many larger organisations are maturing in their adoption many SMEs are not. This paper conducts a systematic literature review (SLR) of the tools available to organisations looking to implement I4.0. The research will focus on tools are around the areas of readiness models, maturity models and frameworks that provide detail on how to begin the journey to I4.0 implementation. The key research questions to be answered are if these tools cater to the unique needs of manufacturing SME's and the challenges they face. What sets this SLR apart from other analysis is the identification of a research gap for a detailed framework for manufacturing SMEs to implement I4.0 in an agile and sustainable way. As the manufacturing world is changing and consumers are making more informed choices about what they buy with a view towards sustainability how can I4.0 help manufacturing SMEs operate in a sustainable way whilst remaining agile to changing economic conditions. This SLR will form the basis for further research into this area to support SMEs on their I4.0 adoption journey.
Industry 4.0 Implementation Challenges and Opportunities: A Managerial Perspective
IEEE Systems Journal
Industry 4.0 is a concept aimed at achieving the integration of physical parts of the manufacturing process (i.e., complex machinery, various devices, and sensors) and cyber parts (i.e., advanced software) via networks and driven by Industry 4.0 technology categories used for prediction, control, maintenance, and integration of manufacturing processes. Industry 4.0, which is expected to have a great impact on manufacturing systems in the future, is attracting attention in both industry and academia. Although academic research on Industry 4.0 is growing exponentially, evidence of Industry 4.0 implementation in practice is still scarce. Moreover, the challenges industry faces when implementing the Industry 4.0 concept seem to be even less addressed. At the start of the present survey, a preliminary literature review identified a lack of comprehensive analysis of the Industry 4.0 implementation challenges. Thus, the purpose of the present article is to provide an overview of the reported Industry 4.0 implementation challenges in the relevant literature by conducting a systematic literature review. Specifically, while the present study differentiates between managerial and technological Industry 4.0 implementation challenges, the focus of the present article is on the managerial Industry 4.0 implementation challenges. This overview is performed by deriving an inductively coded Industry 4.0 technology framework that classifies Industry 4.0 technologies into ten categories: cyber physical systems, Internet of Things, big data analytics, cloud computing, fog and edge computing, augmented and virtual reality, robotics, cyber security, semantic web technologies, and additive manufacturing. The present article identifies, codes, and defines the managerial Industry 4.0 implementation challenges and derives opportunities for overcoming them.
