The Operator 4.0 represents a recent paradigm within the transformation potential heralded by Industry 4.0. Since there is a lack of practice-oriented tools, grounded in sound theory, to implement the Operator 4.0 successfully, this paper presents the assessment tool developed within the \xABDigitally Enhanced Operator\xBB project. The tool covers 3 areas of analysis (i.e., Work Organization & Shop Floor Characteristics, Situation Awareness & Decision Making, Technological Support), a set of dimensions and a four-level maturity scale. This work contributes to advance knowledge and to help manufacturers consider the Organizational, Human and Technological aspects in their journey to Industry 4.0.

Abstract

The Operator 4.0 represents a recent paradigm within the transformation potential heralded by Industry 4.0. Since there is a lack of practice-oriented tools, grounded in sound theory, to implement the Operator 4.0 successfully, this paper presents the assessment tool developed within the \xABDigitally Enhanced Operator\xBB project. The tool covers 3 areas of analysis (i.e., Work Organization & Shop Floor Characteristics, Situation Awareness & Decision Making, Technological Support), a set of dimensions and a four-level maturity scale. This work contributes to advance knowledge and to help manufacturers consider the Organizational, Human and Technological aspects in their journey to Industry 4.0.
