This thesis examines how Industry 4.0 technologies impact digitalization within the Turkish automotive sector. By reviewing existing literature and gathering expert inputs, the study pinpoints key criteria crucial for successful digitalization efforts within the industry. These criteria are then categorized into eight main factors, forming the basis for evaluating five digital transformation maturity levels defined in this thesis. Accordingly, the initial sub-criteria list was refined and grouped under main factors (criteria) using the survey results from Turkish Automotive Manufacturers (OTEP). The Best-Worst Method (BWM) was then employed to weigh the criteria classes and to compare digitalization (or namely digital transformation) performance across surveyed companies. On the following, this study introduces a novel approach to the Turkish automotive industry by employing bi-clustering method to quantify and analyse digitalization maturity levels. This analysis groups companies into distinct maturity levels based on pre-defined criteria, highlighting potential roadblocks hindering full Industry 4.0 integration. Finally, by analysing the key drivers and barriers to digitalization, this study identifies crucial criteria that require attention and improvement for each company surveyed. Overall, findings of this research provide valuable insights for decision-makers and industry professionals in the Turkish automotive sector to define maturity levels and strive for successful Industry 4.0 implementation.
