————— What is futuremap?
futuremap is a business diagnostic tool – developed specifically for Australian manufacturing SMEs – that helps you assess and map the maturity levels and capabilities of your business in the areas of:
- Market positioning,
- Leadership, strategy and change management;
- Innovation and use of technology; and
- Digital manufacturing (Industry 4.0).
Designed as a point-in-time self-assessment, futuremap poses questions in key areas of industrial and advanced manufacturing competitiveness, ranging from value proposition to the Industry 4.0 uptake in your organisation.
By reflecting honestly on the state of your business and measuring the “now” against the “aspired-to” maturity in two years’ time, futuremap helps you to identify areas of focus for growth, potential investment, and wider opportunities. The more honest your responses are, the more relevant, accurate and valuable will the individual “futuremap” report be that you will receive at the end of the assessment.
futuremap also provides you with further educational materials and offers access to a broad eco-system of supporting organisations and programs.
————— Why futuremap?
The manufacturing world is constantly evolving. futuremap encourages business owners and senior executives to:
- think differently about the opportunities and challenges of digital manufacturing;
- map the current state of their business with respect to capabilities and characteristics that will help determine their future competitiveness and success, and compare this to where they aspire to be in two years from now;
- understand the primary gaps between the current state of their business and their aspirations, to assist them to develop the key areas of focus and potential investment;
- and understand where assistance may be sought to help them on their transition to digital manufacturing.
————— Who is futuremap for?
futuremap was developed with Australian manufacturing SMEs in mind.
It is aimed at business owners and senior executives of manufacturing businesses prompting them to think about the maturity of their business in key areas such as leadership, innovation, digital manufacturing and Industry 4.0.
