According to all indicators, the world is in the midst of the fourth industrial revolution, similar to the introduction of mechanization in the 19th century, which will increase the efficiency of production, engineering, logistics, marketing, procurement, sales, and other business domains.

McKinsey reports that 75% of companies recognize the opportunities of Industry 4.0, but only 13% have started with smart manufacturing.

If your company and production are stable and mature, you’re likely considering how to improve, modernize, and automate processes while ensuring everything is implemented flawlessly – because mistakes in the industry cost millions.

Take advantage of our experience and knowledge.

The versatility and ability to connect expert experiences from various industries make ATO uniquely excellent at solving automation and control system development challenges. We know our tools well and know how to make them do what you need. Need to automate a beer filling line? No problem. Build a system to remove toxic particles from a thermal power plant’s smoke? Done. Develop a better control system for a power plant’s internal consumption, while keeping everything that’s been working for the last 50 years to reduce costs and improve your plant’s efficiency? Not something we’d want to repeat, but – we did it. And it works.

Rely on SIRI

The Smart Industry Readiness Index is an industrial model developed by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) in collaboration with leading technology companies, academic institutions, and industry experts.

It is defined in three steps: start -> scale -> sustain and consists of three frameworks and two tools.

Everything begins with LEAD – Learn, Evaluate, Architect, Deliver

LEAD is a circular, continuous process of digital transformation, with the initial strategic goal being the completion of the first iteration. It is broadly defined through:

• Learn (L) – Mastering the key principles, concepts, and technologies of Industry 4.0, and creating a common vocabulary for alignment and understanding throughout the enterprise
• Evaluate (E) – Evaluate an enterprise’s current level of maturity for Industry 4.0
• Architect (A) – Developing a comprehensive strategy and defining the implementation path
• Deliver (D) – Achieving results that contribute to the company’s business, while maintaining the initiative for further transformation

Next comes SIRI, where the Assessment Matrix tool evaluates the current state of your company across 16 dimensions.

Such an assessment quantifies values and conditions, providing you with a clear and detailed insight into the state of the company.

But even if you have all of that, the question remains: how do you actually implement the transformation? Where do you start? What are the priorities? In what order should they be addressed?

This is where the Tier framework comes into play.
