Smart transformation is critical for manufacturing enterprises in the development of smart manufacturing.

It adopts the Smart Industry Readiness Index, created by the Singapore Economic Development Board, as a maturity assessment model to analyze enterprises' smart transformation and formulate project management strategies.
