SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT FOR INDUSTRY 4.0 - A STRATEGIC POSITIONING WORKSHOP
The new technological developments collectively labelled ‘Industry 4.0’ present considerable opportunities but also new challenges - in particular, the emergence of dynamic market changes necessitated by changes in customer preferences. Timely adjustments are required in manufacturing to meet these changing demands. Although the design of manufacturing systems in the context of I4.0 facilitates an efficient data flow between different machines it does not yet deliver on the promise of I4.0 to seamlessly integrate supply chains, big data analytics applications or enterprise-level planning modules.
This workshop presents an opportunity for academics and practitioners to explore these opportunities and challenges, identify key research issues in this area and a potential pathway forward, and to network.

Key Questions
What are the key challenges and opportunities in terms of manufacturing process organization and supply chain management in the context of Industry 4.0?
What are suitable architecture models, technologies and standards for the realization of digitized production engineering processes across horizontally and vertically cyber-physically integrated enterprises in Industry 4.0?
What are the broader implications of a continuing digitization and servitization of production engineering and a cyber-physical supply chain on the competitiveness of the UK manufacturing sector?
