2016 Global Industry 4.0 Survey: Building the Digital Enterprise
Overview
Behind the scenes of the world’s leading industrial and manufacturing companies, a profound digital transformation is now underway. While terms like the industrial internet or digital factory are also used to describe the journey industrial companies are taking towards a complex value chain transformation, the term ‘Industry 4.0’ stands for the fourth industrial revolution and focuses on the end-to-end digitization of all physical assets and integration into digital ecosystems with value chain partners. For many companies Industry 4.0 is no longer a future trend, instead it is now at the heart of their strategic and research agenda.
