Smart Industry
Readiness Index

Catalysing digital transformation in global manufacturing.

Introducing SIRI

Manufacturing is in the midst of its next revolution. The digital age has ushered in a new era for manufacturing, known as Industry 4.0. This paradigm shift offers global companies the chance to enhance productivity, flexibility, and speed for newfound competitive advantages.

Endorsed by the World Economic Forum (WEF), the Smart Industry Readiness Index (SIRI) is the world’s first independent digital maturity assessment for manufacturers. It comprises a suite of frameworks and tools to help manufacturers – regardless of size and industry – start, scale, and sustain their manufacturing transformation journeys.

Testimonials

Our partners testimonials

Roshan Gya

SIRI will not only foster awareness and engagement across industries, it will also help the required acceleration around Scope 3 decarbonisation to support the broader industrial community in this challenge.

Francisco Betti

The SIRI framework is a major step forward in fostering smart, sustainable manufacturing globally. It is a powerful tool to help governments, businesses and stakeholders enhance transparency and visibility across manufacturing value chains.

Albert Chan

SIRI has reaffirmed our strong strategy and its role in quantifying the impacts of sustainability actions, paired with the ability to track progress, can help support meaningfull transformation.

Prof. Dr. Axel Stepken

SIRI gives clear orientation to manufacturers on what Industry 4.0 means and how they can initiate their transformation journey. The Assessment Matrix is a world’s first Industry 4.0 tool that is developed by the government for national-wide transformation of industrial sectors. Strongly aligned with Industry 4.0 and other global manufacturing initiatives, it has the potential to be the global standard for the future of manufacturing.

Mr. Yeoh Pit Wee

Often, companies tend to focus excessively on shop floor automation and under invest in equally important areas such as process design and workforce competency. SIRI serves as a useful counter-check to ensure that no dimensions are overlooked, in order to capture maximum value from any Industry 4.0 initiatives.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Siegfried Russwurm

The Smart Industry Readiness Index is a framework that strikes a good balance by offering practical applicability while maintaining both conceptual and technical rigour.

Mr. Goh Koon Eng

Like us, many companies have already started their transformation journey. Beyond addressing the operational concerns today, SIRI is a useful framework to also guide our future decisions to deliver sustained impact. It also ensures that we’re always moving in the right direction and focusing on the things that matter.

Mr. Laurent Filipozzi

As part of our Smart Enterprise Program, we have been investing in many initiatives to achieve significant improvements in speed, productivity, and quality. Here, we see SIRI as a useful tool to help us unlock maximum value by not only pushing us to investigate new dimensions that were not created previously, but also allowing us to pursue our Industry 4.0 strategy in a more targeted fashion.

Mr. Hashim Baba

SIRI allows our manufacturing teams to take stock of what we are doing well and where we can do better. This forms a good basis to build a shared Industry 4.0 vision and strategy, enabling us to take decisive action in initiating a multi-year transformation journey.

Mr. Desmond Goh

While the term Industry 4.0 was created several years ago, many manufacturing companies, particular SMEs, remain unfamiliar with it. SIRI is an intuitive and realistic reference framework which is useful for all industrial companies, both big and small, to not only learn these new concepts but to also apply them to our facilities..
