The 16 Dimensions —made practical

Strategy becomes real when people can act on it. MyLiveZone translates the 16 Dimensions of Industry 4.0 into actionable, Blue‑Collar skills on real equipment — and connects outcomes to leadership dashboards.

16 Dimensions of Industry 4.0 visual representation

Bottom‑Up capability • Top‑Down alignment • Measurable value

Bottom‑Up

From the shop floor up

Operators and technicians practice on real PLCs, drives, robots and IIoT gateways. Every module maps to specific Dimensions (e.g., Shopfloor Automation, Connectivity, Intelligence) and improves KPIs like OEE, quality, and safety.

Top‑Down

Strategy you can measure

Leaders get clear evidence of progress: skill attainment, lab usage, and process outcomes map to Roadmaps and Governance — enabling better investment decisions and faster adoption.

How we deliver

Remote labs • Real hardware

Browser access to live equipment, VM images for software stacks, and guided scenarios ensure repeatable practice — at scale and without downtime on the factory floor.

Why it works

Skills → Adoption → Impact

People master the tools they actually use. That builds trust, accelerates roll‑outs, and closes the loop between training, daily operations, and strategic outcomes.
