Abstract

Digitalization is becoming an essential part of all industrial activities, especially in the air transport sector. The activities carried out in airports are evolving thanks to technologies and networks. In order to obtain better performance at the global level, the transition to 4.0 must be made on all the processes of the airport. New jobs are emerging and then new skills are needed. In such context, the research questions that arise are: How to determine the current level of maturity? How to define a progress strategy? How to determine the skills needed to achieve the objectives? The originality developed in this paper is an approach to determine the level of maturity 4.0 and the required skills to succeed in the transition to airport 4.0.
