How to get started with Industry 4.0

Brainstorm session to create awareness about Industry 4.0.

Awareness

The first step of an Industry 4.0 implementation consists of creating awareness within the organization. To accelerate this process, it’s important to select a diverse group of early adopters, including a C-level sponsor.

Creating awareness can be done by hosting warm-up sessions to both educate the basic principles of Industry 4.0, and to train the participants in recognizing the potential added value in daily work scenarios.

Demonstrate potential added value

The second step of the process implements the first real world application(s) of Smart Industry, generated during the first step, as a Proof of Concept (PoC). 

The PoC should be accessible to anyone who’s interested and it should be advertised across the entire organization in order to increase support for Industry 4.0.

Envision, strategize & planning

Defining a core-team, future ambitions and goals, and setting-up the holistic transformation processes is part of the third step in the transformation. 

One of the most enjoyable parts of this step is exploring all the value-adding ideas, generated by the core-team, and ranking these on an impact and effort matrix to define the low-hanging fruit.

Once the future ambitions and goals have been defined, the low hanging-fruit projects have been spotted, and the organization is ready for more action, the transformation can begin. 

The transformation is a process of continuous improvement. During the transformation, a holistic implementation of Industry 4.0 will be achieved, a project at a time
