Several industrial initiatives around the globe usher in the Fourth Industrial Revolution that points at the deployment of a Smart Factory. A Smart Factory builds on several advanced digital technologies to integrate the production process within and across organizations. The literature asserts that Smart Factory increased efficiency and production outcome. While the technical aspects of the Smart Factory are quite extensively studied, few pieces of research paid attention to the competencies that organizations need to manage a Smart Factory. Therefore, we develop a competence framework for handling Smart Factory from a systematic literature review of Smart Factory empirical cases. We contribute to the literature proposing a framework with six competences areas.

Abstract
Several industrial initiatives around the globe usher in the Fourth Industrial Revolution that points at the deployment of a Smart Factory. A Smart Factory builds on several advanced digital technologies to integrate the production process within and across organizations. The literature asserts that Smart Factory increased efficiency and production outcome. While the technical aspects of the Smart Factory are quite extensively studied, few pieces of research paid attention to the competencies that organizations need to manage a Smart Factory. Therefore, we develop a competence framework for handling Smart Factory from a systematic literature review of Smart Factory empirical cases. We contribute to the literature proposing a framework with six competences areas.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
