Sistema de avaliação de maturidade industrial baseando-se nos conceitos de Indústria 4.0

Abstract

The current technological situation of the industry undergoes drastic transformations, leveraged by an increasing demand in the capacity of the production, forcing an increasing amount of shared information to keep the continuous improvement of the production and to create and to integrate systems each time fewer dependent on people. The biggest challenge of this new conjuncture is to align the concept to develop the industrial park in a correct and coherent way to its reality and installed plant. In Brazil, the scenario is even worse because the vast majority of industries have not reached the appropriate and suggested technological level to fulfill the requirements involved. A system for assessing the current level of technological maturity of these industries, in different dimensions of analysis, is important to direct organizational efforts for the necessary changes. This work presents this system, developed in a specific platform focused on the mobile application, aiming to make the user experience in the evaluation process simple and fast. This application uses the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) multicriteria evaluation method that acts as a mechanism for analyzing the different capabilities of the Industry 4.0 criteria, inferring the level of industrial maturity of the entity being evaluated. The criteria and their different categories follow one of the most robust existing Industry 4.0 models. The resulting system, titled Go44, was tested by professionals in the area of interest and their results submitted to the evaluation of these professionals and researchers.
