same lacks in project planning. This brief fills this gap as it examines
the development of a Value Roadmap for different industries using
Industry 4.0 as an enabler. Using the automotive, healthcare and
telecommunication industries as case studies, the authors create the
value roadmap using five factors: market drivers, product features,
technology features, enablers and resources. This framework integrates
both technology and market knowledge to support strategy development,
innovation and operational processes in organizations.
