While it is slightly time-consuming, users can have a thorough investigation on their current practices in the complete assessment mode. The tool provides 2 different modes, a complete assessment and a scope selection mode. This makes it easy for the user to obtain the readiness for the smart factory transformation. The tool walks the user through the necessary assessment steps.
Each of the measurement categories has its own calculation method to quantify the maturity level and it is used for deriving customized factory improvement plans.

Each activity is measured under multiple dimensions such as Activity Management, Designated Personnel, Software System, Output Data Format, KPIs and KPI relationship, all of which are grouped into 4 measurement categories (C1: Organizational Maturity, C2: IT Applications Maturity, C3: Performance Management Maturity and C4: Information Connectivity Maturity). In the SMSRL, activities employed from the FDI are subdivided into their applicability at the various control levels of ISA-88: Enterprise, Site, Area, Process Cell, Unit, Equipment Module, and Control Module. The SMSRL uses the Factory Design and Improvement (FDI) activity model as a guide for indicating actions and things that should be in place for performing a successful smart factory transformation at the operational level (i.e., it does not cover the necessary underlying communication infrastructure). The Smart Manufacturing Systems Readiness Level (SMSRL) focuses on evaluating the readiness (also can be viewed as maturity) for a factory to undergo improvements, particularly related to the data intensive smart manufacturing technology deployment in a factory.
