ADOPTION OF INDUSTRY 4.0: PLANNING AND CHALLENGES

Abstract

The era of Industry 4.0 is characterized by advanced automation, large-scale data analysis (Big Data), and the Internet of Things, resulting in a significant reduction of human intervention in manufacturing processes. This transformation directly impacts the field of project planning, necessitating adaptations and updates to deal with the latest technologies and interconnected systems. While international literature provides a solid foundation on Industry 4.0, the practical application and specificities of this movement in Brazilian companies still lack a detailed analysis. This study aims to bridge this gap by investigating how a local company adapts to the demands and challenges of Industry 4.0. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the project planning system and technological risk management, providing greater clarity for companies seeking to implement Industry 4.0. Specifically, we aim to identify the practices, challenges, and benefits of data virtualization, as well as the autonomous decision-making capabilities of planning software and the pivotal role of MRP (Manufacturing Resource Planning) software in data retrieval. We employ an approach that combines an international literature review with a case study of a Brazilian multinational corporation. Interviews with company professionals were conducted to gather valuable insights into their practices and challenges related to project planning and technological risk management. Our findings reveal that the studied company possesses a solid understanding of the practices required for data virtualization, which is essential in Industry 4.0. Furthermore, the planning software enables autonomous decision-making, optimizing efficiency and report reliability. MRP software plays a critical role in data retrieval and negotiation capabilities. This study underscores the importance of companies adapting to the challenges of Industry 4.0 and effectively managing project planning and technological risks. Hierarchy-based access limitations to the system prove to be a crucial factor in information security, particularly regarding the protection of intellectual property. Industry 4.0 brings forth new challenges and opportunities, and companies seeking to embrace this movement must be prepared to confront them.
