Developing a competency model for maintenance 4.0 stakeholders

“…Cooperation and Teamwork: a case in point, M4.0 employees will have the ability to cooperate with lightweight robots (Kandemir and Celik, 2020). In addition, they will have the ability to work cooperatively in a team to realize maintenance tasks.Responsibility: the skilled worker in the maintenance department is responsible for flawless machine-to-machine communication (Windelband, 2017). Ability to Transfer Knowledge: the M4.0 employee will be assisted by Virtual Assistant, expert staff or by a more experienced operator (Krason et al.…”

“…, 2018). Language Skills: the M4.0 employee will be able to read displays and to check where a sensor is not functioning (Windelband, 2017). …”

“…Therefore, companies need to make an adaptation of the different roles that their employees play, and, also, need to develop qualification strategies (Biedermann et al. , 2016; Windelband, 2017).…”

“…Also, current research has not contributed much to address the competencies required for maintenance 4.0 (M4.0). For instance (Windelband, 2017), concentrates on the changes in the world of work of M4.0, but future competencies are not analyzed in detail. Moreover, basic skills for M4.0 engineers in an engine room simulator are identified (Kandemir and Celik, 2020), but technician and manager levels are disregarded.…”

“…Maintenance strategies are likely to change within maintenance 4.0 (Windelband, 2017). For instance, the conditioned-based maintenance policy is appropriate for high-risk and high added value equipment.…”
