A SURVEY OF THE READINESS AND MATURITY LEVEL OF INDUSTRY 4.0 AT TWENTY COMPANIES IN PAKISTAN

A survey-based analysis is carried out of twenty major industrial sectors in Pakistan to inspect and scrutinize how Industry 4.0 is developing and being instigated in production units as well as business. Existing technical aspects demonstrate that ancient manufacturing processes are not apt to produce components more accurately and precisely but less lucratively. The objective of this study is to assess the present implementation measures, readiness and maturity level with regard to Industry 4.0 as well as the elementary knowledge of workers and technical know-how of experts. This survey may provide a helpful guide for new and already existing enterprises seeking to precisely achieve requisite attributes of Industry 4.0. A questionnaire consisting of six questions was sent to various industrial businesses and feedback from production managers with a mean age of 34.56 +/- 04.20 years and a minimum of 10 years of experience received. This is a qualitative survey examined by a quantitative method.
