Abstract
In the era of digitalisation, daily life is equipped with digital products and services. These smart products now become the necessity of everyday life. To fulfil the huge amount of demands of such product in a sustainable way, smart manufacturing is evolving. However, the development of smart manufacturing is facing many challenges from various perspective. These challenges need to overcome for the development of smart manufacturing. Therefore, the aim of this chapter is to identify and prioritise these challenges, which can be helpful to overcome these challenges. In this study, 16 challenges are identified towards the development of smart manufacturing from the literature review and experts’ input. Additionally, these challenges are categorised in four dimensions. After that, these dimensions and their associated challenges are prioritised based on their importance using the best worst method (BWM). The result clearly shows that infrastructure-related challenges are the most significant while consumer related challenges are least significant. The identified challenges are helpful for the development of smart manufacturing. The prioritisation of these challenges assists the management and policymakers to formulate the strategies for the mitigation of these challenges. This study provides 16 challenges that can be evaluated by manufacturers/companies to realize the readiness for smart manufacturing transformation. This chapter provides an understanding of the smart manufacturing and associated challenges towards its development.
