Abstract
AbstractTo fully realize the potential of the Internet of Things (IoT), it will be necessary to overcome the significant obstacle of ensuring the participation of small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) in the implementation of IoT. IoT is critical for ensuring SMEs’ manufacturing competitiveness; however, little is known about the implementation stages for IoT in SMEs, as well as the resources required to reach the next stage. The analysis of readiness factors is essential to encourage IoT adoption in SMEs. Few researchers, however, have proposed a readiness framework that takes into account technological forecasting to assess the rate of IoT adoption and, in turn, lay out a plan for its introduction in SMEs. The purpose of this research was to examine the current Maturity Models (MMs) so that a new MM could be proposed to address their shortcomings.KeywordsIoTSMEsMaturity models
