International Journal of Production ResearchRésumé
Industry 4.0 provides new paradigms for the industrial management of SMEs. Supported by a growing number of new
technologies, this concept appears more flexible and less expensive than traditional enterprise information systems such
as ERP and MES. However, SMEs find themselves ill-equipped to face these new possibilities regarding their production
planning and control functions. This paper presents a literature review of existing applied research covering different
Industry 4.0 issues with regard to SMEs. Papers are classified according to a new framework which allows identification
of the targeted performance objectives, the required managerial capacities and the selected group of technologies for each
selected case. Our results show that SMEs do not exploit all the resources for implementing Industry 4.0 and often limit
themselves to the adoption of Cloud Computing and the Internet of Things. Likewise, SMEs seem to have adopted
Industry 4.0 concepts only for monitoring industrial processes and there is still absence of real applications in the field
of production planning. Finally, our literature review shows that reported Industry 4.0 projects in SMEs remained
cost-driven initiatives and there in still no evidence of real business model transformation at this time.
