Abstract

This work addresses the 4.0 evolution and its digital technologies and their impacts on the digital transformation of the business, as well as the digitisation in the procurement area of companies. This paper aims to find the enabling principles and technologies of Industry 4.0 in the procurement area. We present a model of Procurement 4.0 dimensions, theoretically constructed, and we seek to confirm this model through a survey conducted with 177 professionals in the procurement area from various sectors. Through the research, it was also possible to address the aspect of professionals who work with this innovative technological scenario, and some of the technologies of Industry 4.0. The main result could confirm the Procurement 4.0 conceptual model with the dimensions: skills, management, partnerships, processes, systems/technologies, and sustainability, that guide and can supply a better understanding for implementing Industry 4.0 technologies in the procurement area.
