“…The barrier "development of new skills" raises in the service systems because the educational institutions have not yet had enough time to adjust their curricula. In this respect, Kiel et al (2017), Ríos et al (2017) and Horv ath and Szab o (2019) argue about the importance of the cooperation between firms and universities for improving labor skills related to the industry 4.0 technologies. Therefore, this challenge has implications for cocreating value in services in the B2B context because to overcome this barrier, companies from different services sectors (e.g.…”

Purpose This study aims to recognize industry 4.0 opportunities and challenges associated with the co-creation of value in industrial services and to propose a theoretical framework for smart industrial services systems. Design/methodology/approach The authors carried out a systematic literature review based on the systematic search flow method; thereafter, the authors used the content analysis proposed by Bardin (2011) to analyze the resulting portfolio. Findings The authors identified a total of five industry 4.0 opportunities and five challenges for co-creating value in industrial services. Drawing upon these findings, this paper builds a theoretical framework for the smart industrial services system, in which the industry 4.0 opportunities arise from the digitally mediated inter-firm interactions and the challenges related to the resources of this system. Research limitations/implications This study may not have enabled a complete coverage of all existing peer-reviewed articles in the field of value co-creation in industrial services associated with the industry 4.0 technologies. Also, the framework is constrained by being theoretical rather than empirically grounded. Practical implications The findings give managers support to devise strategies for overcoming the barriers that impede them from taking advantage of the opportunities offered by industry 4.0 for co-creating value in industrial services. Originality/value This paper’s uniqueness is to identify the industry 4.0 opportunities and challenges for value co-creation in the context of industrial services and to propose a framework for the smart industrial services system.

“…Germany, Italy, France, and the United States launched initiatives seeking to launch, implement, and adopt Industry 4.0 also named Industria Conectada 4.0. The program was structured into four main categories including promoting multidisciplinary collaboration, adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies, boosting the development of Industry 4.0 enabler organization, and developing knowledge and competency on Industry 4.0 [6]. To execute the program, training on ICT is paramount, which will also facilitate professional development based on computational technologies, teamwork, and simulation technologies.…”

“…Students, therefore, need to be trained on how they can use these applications in performing tasks in engineering and in the process promote learning. Project-Based Learning models are important in acquiring and developing knowledge by looking at issues from the concept of employability [6]. Learners are equipped with skills that are integral in securing employment opportunities and increase productivity.…”

“…There is need to develop project-based working methodologies to conduct the multidisciplinary project. ICT and PLM creates an opportunity for creating materials revealing the professional roles in the industry such as project manager, mechanical designer, and tool designers [6]. Learners will improve their skills and ability to perform beyond expectation.…”

Mechanical engineering, a program that has existed for more than 50 years at Universidad Nacional de Colombia, has undergone adjustments in accordance with the dynamics of the institution over time. It is a leader in the country in the training of mechanical engineers, who contribute solutions to meet the needs of society. The program has strengthened its research and training capacity in recent years, supported by funding programs and support to improve the laboratories, research groups and departments offered by the university and the faculty. In engineering education, the program must develop professional skills, including applying engineering knowledge; designing and conducting experiments; identifying, formulating and solving engineering problems; recognizing contemporary problems; and using modern techniques and tools for the practice of engineering. The application of information and communications technology (ICT), problem-based learning (PBL), and concurrent engineering (CE) tools plays a critical role in allowing students to understand the professional roles in the industry. The Industrial 4.0 technology is an example of a system that is integral in helping learners relate better to events taking place in the real world. Similarly, teaching and learning methodologies must integrate platforms that promote professionalism, allowing learners to connect with the future. In this research, we propose to study and answer the research question: from the students' perspective, to what extent a PBL approach, including concurrent engineering methodologies and ICT tools in a manufacturing processes course, contributes to bridging the gap between technical and professional or interpersonal skills. We focus on the impact of collaborative learning as a useful tool to achieve the development of a project based on learning competencies through the use of ICT tools and work methodologies as concurrent engineering. Finally, We emphasize the digitalization process as a way to help students interact and exchange knowledge, which fosters a sense of community.

Internet of things (IoT) is based on a global dynamic information network with cloud services where a great number of devices (things) exchange data to provide added-value services and products. There are several commercial and open source IoT platforms available in the market to connect devices to internet; however, they have cost and operational constraints that make them not suitable for academic projects. In this work, an IoT platform, known as Novus-io, is introduced in order to support academic projects for undergraduate students. With this platform and proper training, undergraduate students from different majors (not only from information technology and electronics) are capable to upgrade their school projects with IoT functionalities. The objective of this approach is to provide to any undergraduate student skills and knowledge on IoT, so they will be prepared, in their imminent step toward professionalism, to understand the relevance of digital services in today´s world.
