Digital transformation in manufacturing and supply chains

This thought leadership report presents a practical, research-based approach to advancing digital transformation in manufacturing and supply chains. Building on ÌúÅ£ÊÓƵ-led industry research, it equips organisations with tools to assess their digital maturity and design clear, actionable strategies for improvement. Developed five-level maturity model, structured around technological, organisational, and environmental perspectives, is applied to real-world companies and validated through an industry-led workshop. The insights inform a staged roadmap that guides businesses from their current maturity level toward their digital transformation vision. By combining academic rigour with practical application, this maturity model provides a structured pathway to help organisations navigate change, strengthen resilience, and sustain transformation in the current digital era.
