Yes. We are dedicated to creating additional frameworks and tools to fill in any existing information or knowledge gaps. Our aim is that this expanding collection of resources will provide even more support to manufacturers as they navigate their Industry 4.0 transformation journeys.

To strike the right balance between technical strength and user-friendliness, we collaborated with top technology firms, consulting agencies, and experts from both industry and academia to craft our frameworks and tools. Furthermore, before SIRI’s launch, we field-tested tools such as the Assessment Matrix and Prioritisation Matrix with a diverse range of companies, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and multinational corporations (MNCs).

The frameworks and tools within SIRI are designed to be applicable to companies of all sizes and across various industries. Our goal is that by leveraging these resources, manufacturers will be inspired to explore specific areas that align with their individual needs in greater detail.

For organisations seeking to assess their sustainability maturity and gain deeper insights into their ESG performance and GHG emissions, initiating the process begins with engaging with a Certified COSIRI Assessor to help your organisation conduct the Official COSIRI Assessment. Explore our list of Certified COSIRI Assessors here.

XIRI-Analytics is an analytics dashboard utilising the output of INCIT's two main frameworks: the Smart Industry Readiness Index (SIRI) and the Consumer Sustainability Industry Readiness Index (COSIRI). It equips manufacturers with valuable insights to aid them in improving, designing, and tracking their digital and sustainable transformation journeys.

XIRI-Analytics can furnish manufacturers with valuable insights into industry trends and best practices in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance and digital transformation initiatives (SIRI and COSIRI prioritization index). This information can assist manufacturers in benchmarking their sustainability/digital transformation efforts and identifying areas for improvement. By using XIRI-Analytics, manufacturers can optimise resource allocation, mitigate risk, and achieve their sustainability and digitalisation goals.

XIRI-Analytics provides pre-defined dashboards (Basic and Advanced Packages) with the flexibility to customise visuals for specific priorities. In addition to the standard dashboards, you can enquire about options to tailor visualisations to focus on your unique needs and apply additional filters to data for deeper insights into relevant trends. It's possible to integrate unstructured data from your organisation with XIRI-Analytics for a more comprehensive and actionable view (See FAQ number 15 for steps). This customisation ensures that XIRI-Analytics remains highly relevant and valuable to your organisation.

Government agencies can utilise XIRI-Analytics to gain insights into the overall sustainability maturity and digital transformation progress across their country, segregated by industry clusters and segments. This data can inform policy decisions and initiatives designed to promote environmentally sustainable practices and drive forward digital transformation progress.

XIRI-Analytics is currently offered as a subscription service. There is no option for a one-off purchase of the full interactive XIRI-Analytics dashboard. However, we do offer a one-off analytical report generation service. This service provides manufacturers with valuable insights that can be used to develop transformation roadmaps. Nevertheless, to ensure a suitable roadmap and effective action based on the data and visuals presented in the report, consultation with a Certified SIRI/COSIRI Assessor is recommended.

XIRI-Analytics provides a comprehensive analytical package that elevates performance and sustainability analysis. Visualising the digital and sustainable maturity levels of all your manufacturing plants on a single platform is indeed possible. This global perspective facilitates insightful comparisons, offering a clear understanding of where to prioritise transformation efforts. Equipped with this data, your headquarters can strategically implement targeted improvement initiatives across your entire manufacturing network.

XIRI-Analytics is designed for maximum convenience. As a cloud-based platform, you can access it using any standard internet browser and computer. There's no need to download any additional software or hardware. Upon logging in, you'll be presented with a user-friendly portal where all the data visualisations are displayed. These interactive visuals allow you to explore the data with ease, utilising built-in filters to customise your experience and extract the most meaningful insights for your organisation.

XIRI-Analytics provides a variety of visual categories featuring a range of graphs and charts to assist organisations in effectively interpreting their data (see the example on the XIRI-Analytics main page). Using SIRI data as an example, XIRI-Analytics offers six main categories with four layers of filtering options, resulting in over 16,000 potential visualisations. In addition to the Basic and Advanced packages that come with a set number of visuals, the customisable package allows greater freedom to incorporate additional visuals relevant to your business. To learn more about adding and customising visuals, please contact INCIT.

XIRI-Analytics places data security at the forefront of its priorities. We utilise anonymised and aggregated data, thereby minimising the risk of data breaches for individual companies. For further reassurance, we recommend contacting INCIT to obtain a detailed explanation of our comprehensive data security protocols.

INCIT provides a comprehensive suite of onboarding resources to ensure you maximise your use of the platform. These resources include:

1. Training section: Develop a strong understanding of XIRI-Analytics functionalities through our user-friendly training section, available for registration periodically on our website.

2. User guides: Complement your learning with detailed user guides that offer step-by-step instructions for navigating the platform and exploiting its full capabilities.

For further assistance or tailored training options, please do not hesitate to contact INCIT directly.

XIRI-Analytics does not currently offer free trials. Here's why a free trial may not be the most suitable option for XIRI-Analytics:

• Complexity of Data Analysis: XIRI-Analytics goes beyond basic data visualisation. It utilises complex algorithms and industry benchmarks to deliver insights that become increasingly valuable over time. A short trial might not provide enough time to fully experience the platform's capabilities.

• Ongoing Support and Value: XIRI-Analytics is designed to be a long-term partner in your transformation journey. We provide ongoing support and resources to ensure you maximise your use of the platform. A free trial wouldn't allow you to experience this comprehensive support structure.

As the data is anonymised and aggregated, exporting it for individual company comparisons may not be possible. However, you may be able to download one-off reports with visualisations based on industry trends.

XIRI-Analytics prioritises user-friendliness. You don't require in-depth technical or statistical expertise to navigate the platform and glean valuable insights. The intuitive interface and clear visualisations make it straightforward to understand your data and identify key trends.

While XIRI-Analytics empowers you to extract meaningful insights, collaborating with a Certified SIRI/COSIRI Assessor can unlock even greater value. These qualified professionals can provide in-depth interpretations of the data presented by XIRI-Analytics. Their expertise can be instrumental in crafting highly customised and effective roadmaps for your transformation journey.

The standard basic and advanced XIRI-Analytics packages focus on anonymised and aggregated data, making them unsuitable for direct financial risk analysis of individual companies. However, the underlying SIRI & COSIRI frameworks have potential applications for financial risk assessment, though this would require customisation beyond the standard XIRI-Analytics platform.

For M&A due diligence, the prioritisation indices within XIRI-Analytics could potentially streamline the process by providing insights into a target company's ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) maturity and digital transformation progress. This information can provide some indication of whether the company is likely to survive the ever-evolving manufacturing landscape.

If you're interested in exploring the potential of SIRI/COSIRI for financial risk assessment or utilising XIRI-Analytics for M&A due diligence, we strongly recommend contacting INCIT directly. Our team can provide the most up-to-date information on customisation options and data access possibilities to best meet your specific needs.

Depending on your data type, XIRI-Analytics can integrate with your existing data systems to generate a more comprehensive picture of your current state and produce specific correlation analytics. While data security is our priority, we understand the value of leveraging your own data alongside XIRI-Analytics.

Here's how we can achieve this together:

• Secure data sharing: You can securely share relevant data from your internal systems with INCIT's analytics teams. Our team will then aggregate and anonymise this data, ensuring it adheres to strict data protection policies.

• Enhanced insights with correlation analytics: Once integrated, XIRI-Analytics can perform advanced correlation analyses. This allows you to explore how your internal data relates to the industry benchmarks and insights provided by XIRI-Analytics, generating deeper and more actionable insights.
