SLP Assignment
A “White Paper” on Industry 4.0
Using the module’s readings and other research (not more than 3 years old), write a white paper on Industry 4.0 applications.
Background
- Deliver a brief background of Industry 4.0 as it pertains to operations today. (1/2 page) Research Required.
Company Best Practices Example
- Using the assigned Company, provide information on what it is doing to embrace Industry 4.0. (1 page) Research Required.
Applications
- Offer reasons why companies should follow through on these practices. (1/2 page) Research Required.
No quotations are permitted in this paper. Each paragraph (except the introduction and conclusion) must contain at least one in-text citation.
Since you are engaging in research, cite in the body of the post and add a reference list in APA format. NOTE: failure to use research with accompanying in-text citations to support content will result in reduced scoring “Level 2-Developing” on the grading rubric.
The paper should be written in the third person; this means words like “I,” “we,” and “you” are not appropriate. Refer to yourself in third-person as “manager” or write about what the “project team” will do, rather than saying “I” and “we.”
