Abstract

Nous vivons dans un monde en perpétuelle évolution, les technologies sont de plus en plus présentes dans notre quotidien et dans les entreprises. Depuis 2011, les notions de quatrième révolution industrielle ou d’industrie 4.0 sont de plus en plus présentes. Les grandes sociétés sont généralement à jour technologiquement. Néanmoins, ce n’est pas toujours le cas pour les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME). Cependant, il existe un paradoxe (Solow paradox) très souvent débattu par les auteurs dans la littérature économique. Certaines études ont en effet démontré un paradoxe de productivité entre l’implémentation d’une nouvelle innovation dans une firme et l’augmentation de la productivité. La productivité peut être mesurée à l’aide de données financières et non-financières. Pour cette étude, nous nous concentrons sur des aspects non-financiers.
Notre premier objectif est donc d’évaluer la présence ou l’absence du paradoxe de productivité et le niveau de l’amélioration de productivité d’une PME manufacturière belge à la suite de l’implémentation d’une technologie de l’industrie 4.0. Notre second objectif est de déceler les facteurs clés de succès de cette amélioration de productivité. 
Pour répondre à ces objectifs, nous avons effectué une étude qualitative de 15 interviews réalisées auprès de managers de PME manufacturières belges. Nous nous sommes aidés de la méthode de Yin (2016) pour la méthodologie de collecte, d’analyse et d’interprétation des données récoltées.
Nous observons une absence du paradoxe de productivité et une amélioration de la productivité au niveau des facteurs de la productivité du travail, de la communication et du service client. Les principaux facteurs clés de succès pour les PME sont les connaissances et l’audace des chefs d’entreprise pour se lancer dans un projet de transformation vers les technologies 4.0, les compétences des travailleurs et la collaboration avec les acteurs internes et externes à la firme. We live in an ever-changing world, with technologies becoming more and more present in our daily lives and in companies. Since 2011, we have been talking about the fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0. If large companies are generally technologically up to date, this is not always the case for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). However, there is a paradox (Solow paradox) that is often discussed by authors in the literature on the subject. Some studies have demonstrated a productivity paradox between the implementation of a new innovation in a firm and the increase in productivity. Productivity can be measured using financial and non-financial data. In this study, we will focus on non-financial aspects.
My first objective is therefore to assess the presence or absence of the productivity paradox and the level of productivity improvement of a Belgian manufacturing SME following the implementation of an Industry 4.0 technology. My second objective is to identify the key success factors of this productivity improvement. 
To meet these objectives, we conducted a qualitative study of 15 interviews with managers of Belgian manufacturing SMEs. We used the method of Yin (2016) for the methodology of collection, analysis and interpretation of the collected data.
We observe an absence of the productivity paradox and a positive productivity improvement regarding the factors of work productivity, communication and customer service. The main key success factors for SMEs are the knowledge and boldness of managers to embark on a project of transformation towards 4.0 technologies, the skills of the workers and the collaboration with actors internal and external to the firm.

Abstract

In a VUCA world (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous), organizations, in order to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage, must learn to mitigate risk and prioritize performance and innovation. In the last decade, as a way to respond to market demands, projects emerge as a way for organizations to implement their strategic objectives in order to respond to a need, opportunity, or threat in an efficient way. This e-book includes a collection of 11 papers that discuss theoretical approaches and case studies, focused on a combined effect between Project Risk Assessment and corporate behaviour in order to support the sustainability and business resilience in a competitive environment. The e-book will be of particular interest to entrepreneurs, researchers, and policymakers.
