Abstract
The successful implementation of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies is capable of revolutionizing the production process. However, the realization of this potential largely depends on the effectiveness of the decisions taken. This article examines the key differences between the traditional approach to lean manufacturing and the so-called "Industry 4.0" - comprehensive methods that take into account several key factors contributing to increased enterprise productivity. The main results of the introduction of Industry 4.0 include a significant increase in operational efficiency, improved forecasting capabilities for equipment maintenance, increased flexibility in product customization, and overall increased competitiveness. The study highlights that the successful implementation of Industry 4.0 is not just a technology upgrade, but a real organizational transformation based on a reliable decision-making system. This case is a valuable source of information for organizations facing difficulties in the process of digital transformation. This article reveals the close relationship between effective decision-making and the successful implementation of Industry 4.0 in the company's production activities. The article notes that the company's ability to successfully adapt to the conditions of Industry 4.0 and significantly improve its operations largely depends on a well-structured, well-informed and flexible decision-making process using artificial intelligence. The article discusses the key aspects related to the use of artificial intelligence in the decision-making process. In particular, potential risks and ways to overcome them are discussed, as well as problems that can be solved with the help of AI. In addition, the article describes the benefits of implementing Industry 4.0 and their impact on production efficiency. The author emphasizes the close relationship between technology and strategy, and also provides recommendations for manufacturing enterprises that are just beginning their journey towards digital transformation. He emphasizes that to succeed, it is necessary to combine technological expertise with determination at both the strategic and operational levels.
