Abstract:
The manufacturing industry is adopting new technologies such as IoT to improve its manufacturing processes. However,
the understanding of IoT implementation in Industry 4.0 is limited, especially in Malaysia. To fill this gap, this study aims to identify
the IoT implementation framework in Industry 4.0 manufacturing and the associated challenges. The study employed a systematic
review of 42 articles published between 2011 and 2022. The results indicate that Industry 4.0 has revolutionized the manufacturing
industry, and Malaysian companies need to embrace this digital transition to remain competitive. The study recommends that Malaysian
manufacturing companies should invest in IoT development and employee training to optimize IoT usage. Furthermore, the government
needs to create awareness about IoT implementation to boost Malaysia’s economy. This study contributes to the development of
guidelines and standards for companies that want to implement IoT.
