Abstract
Recently, the world is facing many difficulties in all areas as a result of price instability and the Russian-Ukraine war. Personally, as many jobs disappear, household income is declining sharply. In particular, the possibility of such bankruptcies is relatively increasing in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and it is highly likely that this will continue for the time being. In this situation, countries around the world are continuously making efforts to improve corporate productivity. In Korea, the smart factory support project implemented by the Smart Manufacturing Innovation Promotion Team has been continuously promoted for the past several years, providing opportunities for SMEs in need to improve productivity and change the corporate structure. In this study, the current status of smart factory promotion at home and abroad was examined, and problems and improvement measures were studied for the insufficient efficiency in the smart factory promotion system implemented in Korea.
