Resumen

In search of perpetual sustainability, companies need a continuous line of innovation, incorporating new technologies to optimize production; the adoption of Industry 4.0 is marking an important milestone in the deployment of business functions in all areas, adapting from human resources management to manufacturing operations. By leveraging these tools, operational areas can be interconnected to drive productivity. Thus, this research performs a descriptive bibliometric analysis of the influence of Industry 4.0 on business management from 2013 to 2022, using the contribution of physics through the implementation of data mining tools, such as Bibliometrix, whose foundation is given by mathematical and statistical models; in such a way, articles indexed in Scopus and Web of Science were analyzed, focusing on the indicators of citations, bibliography, abstract and keywords. The results showed an exponential growth of articles on Industry 4.0, with manufacturing as the central area of interest, especially in artificial intelligence and big data applications. The most cited articles highlight its role in process optimization. Overall, this bibliometric analysis suggests that the adoption of Industry 4.0 has a positive impact on decision-making, improving the direction of business management. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
