It implies an evolutional transformation, which aggregates advanced technologies and cyber-physical interactions. Some of required capabilities are already existing in companies, but some have to be developed/ adopted. The purpose of this paper is to isolate these enables required for Industry 4.0. Consequently, extensive literature review was carried out to synthesize the enablers for Industry 4.0, which are further grouped in an associated Mind Map. The main enablers were isolated as human, organization and technology in the higher level with associated subordinated enablers in an organized manner. The scientific implication is that this Mind Map can be used in analysis, when introducing weighs and importance factors. Practically, the mind map embodies a body of knowledge, i.e. the enablers, that have to be internalized by managers to achieve Industry 4.0 practices. Existing Industry 4.0 research is either focusing on partial topics in depth, or it gives a general overview of readiness for Industry 4.0, which is a wide collection of factors. To our best knowledge there is no similar work guiding throughout enablers visually, easing the adaptation process.engrestrictedAccessconferenceObject00046779420007610.1109/ISMSIT.2018.8567293DigitalizationEnabling factorsIndustry 4.0Manufacturing organizationMind mapSmart manufacturing2-s2.0-85060816075
