Abstract
The birth of mass production started in the early 1900s. The manufacturing industries were transformed from mechanization to digitalization with the help of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Now, the advancement of ICT and the Internet of Things has enabled smart manufacturing or Industry 4.0. Industry 4.0 refers to the various technologies that are transforming the way we work in manufacturing industries such as Internet of Things, cloud, big data, AI, robotics, blockchain, autonomous vehicles, enterprise software, etc. Additionally, the Industry 4.0 concept refers to new production patterns involving new technologies, manufacturing factors, and workforce organization. It changes the production process and creates a highly efficient production system that reduces production costs and improves product quality. The concept of Industry 4.0 is relatively new; there is high uncertainty, lack of knowledge and limited publication about the performance measurement and quality management with respect to Industry 4.0. Conversely, manufacturing companies are still struggling to understand the variety of Industry 4.0 technologies. Industrial standards are used to measure performance and manage the quality of the product and services. In order to fill this gap, our study focuses on how the manufacturing industries use different industrial standards to measure performance and manage the quality of the product and services. This paper reviews the current methods, industrial standards, key performance indicators (KPIs) used for performance measurement systems in data-driven Industry 4.0, and the case studies to understand how smart manufacturing companies are taking advantage of Industry 4.0. Furthermore, this article discusses the digitalization of quality called Quality 4.0, research challenges and opportunities in data-driven Industry 4.0 are discussed.Entities:

|---|---|
|
| This metric refers to the quantity of the finished product. Usually, the count refers to either the amount of product produced after the last changeover of the machine or the total output for the entire shift or week. |
|
| Occasionally, manufacturing processes create scrap, which is calculated in terms of the scrap ratio. Scrap reduction helps organizations achieve profitability goals; thus, controlling the amount generated within tolerable bounds is necessary. |
|
| Machines and processes manufacture products at varying rates. Slow rates usually result in decreased profits as speeds vary, whereas higher speeds influence quality control. This is why staying consistent is critical for operating speeds. |
|
| Many organizations display performance, rate, and quality target values. This KPI helps empower workers to achieve their specific performance goals. |
|
| Takt time is the duration of time or the loop. It is also the time to complete a mission. |
|
| This metric is the Availability × Performance × Quality multiplier and can indicate the overall efficacy of production equipment or a production line as a whole. |

Challenges and opportunities to over the challenges.
| Challenges | Description | References | Opportunities to Overcome the Challenges |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standardization Challenge |
Standardization is one of the most critical issues for Industry 4.0 deployment. Difficulties in building up uniform guidelines for data exchange. A reference architecture is necessary for ensuring an interoperable system. It provides a technical overview of the specifications and encourages meaningful cooperation with all users and processes. | [ |
Need to Implement uniform standards for information exchange within the organization will help to avoid data loss. Develop a standard protocol for communicating across platforms and ensure it is compatible with our diverse set of tools. |
| Collaboration Challenge |
Collaboration is one of the focus areas in the Industry 4.0 era. Collaboration can occur at different levels within a smart factory and among multiple stakeholders, such as other industries, academic institutions, or business partner In this collaborative environment, solutions will be critical, as they allow access to data not only across plants but across the entire value chain. | [ |
Need to design a collaborative framework. The collaborative framework needs to include coordination, communication and cooperation within the entire organization and stakeholders in the supply chain. The collaboration will bring a new level of end-user experience through socio-technical interaction. The collaboration will help the organization to customize the products as per the end-user requirement. The collaboration will increase the productivity rate in a shorter time. |
| Cyber Security Challenge |
The major concern area of Industry 4.0 is cyber attacks. In the smart manufacturing plant, the shop floor is connected to the internet. Industrial Internet and SCADA systems are appealing targets for cyber-attacks. They control critical infrastructure and processes in manufacturing facilities, power plants, and other industries. An attack can cause damage or even an outage that is expensive to fix. | [ |
An organization should launch standardization activities addressing the security of Industry 4.0. An organization should perform an analysis of current security standards to examine whether existing standards adequately address Industry 4.0 security requirements. Need to implement Operation Technology (OT) Security standards -this needs to focus on OT security within the shop floor production. We need to provide training on Cyber security and create awareness about cyber security within the organization. |
| System Integration Challenge |
The integration includes integration of different components, methods and tools, and integration of software and hardware. The first challenge is designing a flexible interface to support different heterogeneous components and supporting adaptive combinations between components. The integration of new technology equipment with existing ones is the key challenge to manufacturing firms. The machine to machine and the interconnection of IT and OT requires a better communication system. | [ |
It is essential to implement some framework that ensures the security and privacy of production data in order to prevent an attacker from accessing private information. More research work needs to be carried out mainly on the IT and OT integration security-related issue. The integration of the OT and IT will bring many opportunities such as real-time monitoring, customization, smart product, real-time feedback etc. |
| Communication Challenge |
The lack of network connectivity issues | [ |
Underdeveloped countries need to establish a good bandwidth network connection throughout the organization. |
| Environmental Challenges |
Industry 4.0 implementation could have serious environmental side effects. For example, companies that rely on automation in the manufacturing process may release high levels of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. To prevent these effects, companies are challenged with compliance when implementing Industry 4.0. | [ |
Industry 4.0 will change the way people work and live, but there is a risk that this technology could harm the environment. To prevent this from happening, businesses should adhere to environmental standards as they implement Industry 4.0 technologies. |
