T1  - Industrie 4.0 Maturity Level in Mexican Manufacturing Companies
N2  - The evaluation of the maturity level of the participating companies has provided an initial insight into the degree of implementation and the upcoming challenges of Industrie 4.0 in Mexico. The assessment shows that Mexican companies have built the necessary foundation to start their digital transformation. Challenges now lie in establishing an integrated IT landscape that makes it possible to generate a digital shadow of the entire company. In order to leverage the potential of this technological development, it is necessary to work in parallel on an even more flexible organizational structure and an innovation-promoting Culture.
In order to strategically plan the digital transformation of a manufacturing company, a detailed analysis of the company's maturity level must be carried out. The basic dimensions of such an analysis were presented in the present paper. The Industrie 4.0 Maturity Index offers a framework that identifies approximately 50 individual capabilities required for the systematic implementation of Industrie 4.0 and groups them into the four dimensions discussed in this paper. Only an analysis of a company's key processes at this level of detail can form the basis for a sound investment decision and a roadmap that outlines the steps towards its digital transformation for the upcoming years.
