Abstract

In March 2020, the Australian Industrial Transformation Institute (AITI) at Flinders University commenced a program of research with industry partner, BAE Systems Australia – Maritime, to accelerate the uptake and diffusion of Industry 4.0 enabling technologies in shipbuilding and its manufacturing supply chain. The critical point of difference of this multi-year, collaborative project has been the focus on the people using the technology rather than the technology itself. Taking a ‘human-centred’ approach is essential for successful technology adoption.
