Performance Measurement and Management in Industry 4.0 Symposium
November 18-19, 2019 University of Padua
The Cranfield School of Management, Herriot-watt University and University of Padua are organizing the PMA symposium 2019 to be held in Padua (Italy), from November 18th-19th, 2019.
In the last few years, a new industrial revolution has been emerging termed as the Fourth Industrial Revolution, or Industry 4.0. It is recognized as a great challenge for all organizations and many countries are planning huge investments to increase the adoption of a set of innovative technologies (i.e. Advanced Manufacturing, Additive Manufacturing, Augmented Reality, Big Data Analytics, Cloud, Cyber Security, Horizontal and Vertical integration, Industrial Internet of Things, Simulation) to transit toward this new industrial paradigm.
Large organizations and SMEs operating in both manufacturing and service sectors could gain important strategic and economic advantages from Industry 4.0. However, without denying the importance of the Industry 4.0 technologies, it has been widely recognized that the successful adoption of the new business paradigm requires, also, relevant progress in performance measurement and management (PMM) practices. On one side, traditional manufacturing companies dedicate most of their attention to operational-technological aspects while neglecting managerial issues determined by Industry 4.0; on the other side, the new business trend requires, more than ever, the development of effective PMM practices. Given these premises, the significant challenge is to identify the best way to support manufacturing and service companies in implementing effective PMM practices to drive the managerial changes implicitly required by the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies.
PMM symposium provides a unique and rewarding opportunity to forward new and emerging ideas. It will bring together the scholars and practitioners working in the broader field of Performance measurement and management.
PMM symposium will facilitate the exchange of ideas in topics of mutual interests. It will serve as a platform for establishing links between research groups with complementary activities and an opportunity to share experiences with the business world.
To favour the debate around this topic, the PMM symposium 2019, attendees are invited to submit an abstract (one page maximum) of their work in progress on issues related to the impact of Industry 4.0 on PMM with particular attention to the changes related to
- Data collection and data analysis (business intelligence, big data, data analytics, etc.)
- Access to measure and performance information (visual system, usability of on line information etc.)
- Decision making process and performance review
- Learning process and HRM, with particular attention to empowerment, motivation, employees well been etc.
- Communication system and knowledge management system
- SMEs’ role in the supply chains managed by large companies
- Organizational culture and management style
- Production and operation management system
Two special issues will be available on the symposium topic. The comments received by during the symposium will be useful for authors to finalize their research.
The PMM symposium will be introduced by Keynote Lectures which will be held by Prof. Umit Bititci and Prof. Mike Bourne and an open plenary section with three leading organizations with significant experiences in Industry 4.0 and PMM. Then, attendees could present their current research to discuss future developments of PMM field (see agenda)
