Abstract

Purpose

The manufacturing industry is changing quickly because of trends like automation and high-volume customization. Industry 4.0 is a movement towards digitization that incorporates cutting-edge technologies to improve consumer experiences and provide better control over production operations. The primary objective of this study is to identify and prioritize the significant obstacles hindering the implementation of Industry 4.0 technologies within the Indian pharmaceutical sector.

Methods

A multi-methodological approach was taken, consisting of the following steps: (1) creating a keyword string based on the PICO framework to collect pertinent literature; (2) using the Delphi technique to interview industry experts; and (3) using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to rank challenges by significance.

Result

The study identified and ranked fifteen critical obstacles that Indian pharmaceutical companies must overcome to implement Industry 4.0. The analysis revealed that ‘lack of awareness’ is the most significant barrier.

Conclusion

Promoting awareness through focused education and industry engagement is crucial to realizing the impending of Industry 4.0.
