Abstract

This study proposes an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) based Industry 4.0 maturity. The model aims to make the vast array of Industry 4.0 technologies comprehensible and actionable for Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) by mapping them to specific ERP functions, thus enabling a more agile and tailored approach to digitalization. A comprehensive literature review revealed limited research on this integrated approach and highlighted the need for a model that supports quick assessments and adaptable implementation strategies. A sample application has been conducted in a manufacturing company and it has been seen that the model leverages ERP's modularity to address company-specific needs and includes rapid evaluation features that provides to the dynamic requirements of SMEs, enhancing their competitive edge in the digital landscape. Additionally, the findings serve as a valuable guide for ERP designers/vendors, providing insights into the integration of Industry 4.0 technologies that can enhance ERP system capabilities.
