“…Woodside et al [103] point out that Blockchain technology can foster the protection of a supply chain from most malicious attacks. Moreover, Preuveneers et al [104] confirm the usefulness of the Blockchain protocol to secure an IoT network by enabling communication between trustworthy nodes while eschewing malicious nodes. Blockchain technology can restrict the access of some selected devices and minimize the possibilities of unauthorized access.…”

Modern supply chains have evolved into highly complex value networks and turned into a vital source of competitive advantage. However, it has become increasingly challenging to verify the source of raw materials and maintain visibility of products and merchandise while they are moving through the value chain network. The application of the Internet of Things (IoT) can help companies to observe, track, and monitor products, activities, and processes within their respective value chain networks. Other applications of IoT include product monitoring to optimize operations in warehousing‚ manufacturing, and transportation. In combination with IoT, Blockchain technology can enable a broad range of different application scenarios to enhance value chain transparency and to increase B2B trust. When combined, IoT and Blockchain technology have the potential to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of modern supply chains. The contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we illustrate how the deployment of Blockchain technology in combination with IoT infrastructure can streamline and benefit modern supply chains and enhance value chain networks. Second, we derive six research propositions outlining how Blockchain technology can impact key features of the IoT (i.e., scalability, security, immutability and auditing, information flows, traceability and interoperability, quality) and thus lay the foundation for future research projects.

“…The excitement and interest regarding Industry 4.0 and its declaration as the next industrial revolution are very much based on a vision of the potential that it holds. According to Preuveneers et al [23], Industry 4.0 proposes a future form of production where machines are networked and communicate with business processes to enable efficient and sustainable manufacturing. A key component of this proposed future appears to be the role of CPS.…”

“…For example, China introduced the "Basic Security Requirements for Government Department Cloud Computing Service Providers" as the security standard for providing cloud computing services to public agencies. Essentially, many of the information systems, data management, and authorization were not designed with open and collaborative networks, thereby making them more vulnerable to cyber-attacks [23]. Hence, organizations need to develop security strategies and systems geared to cybersecurity which increase protection from attack across the business value chain [18].…”

Organizations in both developed and developing economies are paying great attention to the Industry 4.0 revolution and associated uses of technologies due to its potential benefits to the manufacturing industry. However, there are a limited number of empirical studies due to its early stage of adoption around the world, especially regarding the key technological factors that are necessary. This study addresses this research gap by identifying the factors that enable successful Industry 4.0 technologies adoption in an emerging economy country, grouping them, and ranking the groups based on priorities for adoption. The study adopts a mixed-method research methodology. Q-Sort technique and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) respectively were used to group enabling factors and prioritize the groups for Industry 4.0 technologies adoption. Thereafter, semi-structured interviews of key stakeholders in the manufacturing sector in Thailand were carried out to validate and support findings from the quantitative analysis. Five industry experts from automotive and electronic parts/components manufacturers were interviewed. The results show that human capital is the most important readiness dimension for Industry 4.0 technologies implementation.Interoperability and data handling were found to be the next in importance. On the contrary, hardware and technology systems such as data security and technological infrastructure were identified as the least important of the technology readiness dimensions. These findings provide a different perspective to extant studies that posited that technology-based factors as the most important for Industry 4.0 success. Managerial Relevance StatementThe rapid development of Industry 4.0 has significantly influenced manufacturing organizations' operations and decisions. As manufacturers increasingly seek to adopt Industry 4.0, it is important that they know where to direct their efforts and resources. This study emphasizes that human development issues are critical to the success of Industry 4.0. The implication for managers is that human capital must be developed in tandem with technology. The study also highlights the importance of interoperability and therefore, managers must choose Industry 4.0 systems and technology with the ability to be interoperable with other systems and/or organizations in their ecosystems. Finally, the research encourages managers to consider production flexibility and process stability as the most important performance measures for Industry 4.0 implementation.

“…Safety and Security (a, b). This barrier accounts for the firms' lack of internal capabilities to guarantee the security of data exchange and storage in such a hyper-connected manufacturing environment (a) (Preuveneers et al 2017;Strozzi et al 2017). In addition, this barrier includes the safety of the personnel operating at close contact with autonomous machines (b) (Liao et al 2017).…”

Industry 4.0 has fused digitalisation with traditional industrial processes bridging the physical and virtual worlds and opening unimagined possibilities for 21st century business growth. Research is still evolving toward the development of frameworks linking Industry's 4.0 enabling technologies to specific goals and to their impact on the manufacturers' businesses. A systematic review of all peer-reviewed managerial research is performed to extract Industry's 4.0 enabling technologies, barriers and goals. A framework linking technologies, barriers, and goals is then developed together with a web application based on its contents. The use of the framework is demonstrated through its application to two specific empirical case studies. The review shows that there are 9 classes of Industry's 4.0 enabling technologies, whose different arrangements lead to the achievement of up to 15 business goals that can be thwarted by 21 barriers. The pursuit of these goals leads to three different destinations, i.e., three diverse digital transformations of the manufacturing firms. This paper provides a holistic framework that analyses the relationships among Industry's 4.0 enabling technologies, barriers and goals. It appeals to managers who can use its contents along with the web application to derive recommendations and suggestions tailored to their Industry's 4.0 journeys.
