Presenting a smart factory strategy through maturity assessment
The rapid advance of AI is transforming manufacturing as a whole, going beyond productivity gains and process innovation to open up new business opportunities. As expectations for AI-driven innovation grow on the shop floor, companies are wondering where to begin applying AI in production and in what order to expand.
So where does your factory stand today?
To turn AI into real results on the shop floor, you first need to understand your factory's current level and readiness. You need to look at how systematically data is managed, how processes and equipment are connected, and what should be addressed first.
A maturity assessment based on clear, reliable criteria helps you objectively understand your factory's strengths and areas for improvement. Starting from an accurate understanding of where you are today, you can uncover opportunities for higher productivity, lower costs, better quality and sustained growth.
An easy self-assessment: the Smart Factory Maturity Assessment service
Start the Maturity AssessmentThe first step in the manufacturing AX journey is knowing exactly where you stand. The Smart Factory Maturity Assessment is a self-assessment service that lets you check your site's smart factory maturity yourself, without a site visit or separate consulting. The process has three steps: setting industry and process information, answering assessment questions, and reviewing the report. After you answer detailed questions in four key areas designed from LG CNS's smart factory build and operations experience (production operations, process/equipment, materials/logistics, and environment/safety), AI analyzes your responses and automatically generates a report covering your factory's current level and improvement directions. If needed, the assessment report can lead into SF diagnostic consulting, where an expert consultant validates the results on-site.
Check your smart manufacturing level in three steps
See where your factory stands against industry benchmarks
Using benchmarks for 17 industry groups, you can compare your factory's results with benchmarks for the same industry and process type. Depending on the score range of your results, the average level of small and mid-sized companies in the same industry, domestic leaders or global leaders is used as the comparison reference. This lets you see your factory's relative position and the gaps by area, and pinpoint the areas of strength and those needing improvement.
Smart Factory Maturity Assessment Report Reflecting Your Site Conditions
We adjust the weight of each question by industry and detailed process type, and AI also analyzes the on-site conditions in your responses to generate the assessment report. This lets you look more closely at operating conditions that scores alone cannot explain and derive improvement directions.
