Abstract

Competitiveness motivates the process and manufacturing industry to embrace business improvement methods such as and not limited to Lean Manufacturing (LM), World Class Manufacturing (WCM) and Six Sigma to continuously and rapidly improve. Nascent challenges facing the process industry include market volatility, rising competition, increasing sustainability concerns, demand for flexibility and short delivery times, all requiring a higher level of equipment performance. New sources of innovation to close existing gaps and further drive equipment performance are necessary and beneficial. The case study approach is applied to investigate the impact of Industry 4.0's mobile technology on equipment availability and reliability in a WCM setting. Opportunities from Industry 4.0 ecosystem to close challenges to WCM from a maintenance perspective are also investigated. Mobile technology links the shop floor, machine specialists and engineers in near real time to provide refined causation required for the Cost Deployment method in identifying maintenance improvement projects. The results indicate migration of the production line machine efficiency, suggesting Industry 4.0 trends help advance an important WCM goal of zero breakdowns through supporting collaborative problem solving.
