This assessment helps maintenance and reliability leaders assess their organization's readiness for Industrial Agility, evaluating performance across maintenance strategy, planning, digital visibility, and operational adaptability to identify where they stand on the maturity scale.
Rate each statement against your operation using the maturity scale:
1 — Not in place, 2 — Rarely, 3 — Sometimes, 4 — Mostly, 5 — Always.
- Maintenance strategy and execution maturity
- Planning, scheduling and resource coordination
- Digital systems and operational visibility
- Maintenance adaptability and risk response
Basic awareness, limited coordination
Moving from Fragmented & Reactive to Digitized & Visibility-Driven
At this stage, the priority is establishing a digital foundation you can build on. To achieve this, Verdantix recommends four actions:
Improved awareness, still mostly reactive
Moving from Digitized & Visibility-Driven to Predictive & Coordinated
You have the data foundation; the next stage is putting it to work. The shift here is from recording what happened to anticipating what will. To get there, Verdantix recommends four actions:
Insight-driven, rapid response across functions
Moving from Predictive & Coordinated to Adaptive & Modular
Prediction tells you what's coming. The next stage is being able to act on it without breaking everything else, which means plans, priorities and resources that can flex as conditions change. Verdantix recommends four investments:
Fast execution, flexible reconfiguration
Moving from Adaptive & Modular to Autonomous & Fully Agile
Few organizations operate at level 5 today. The work at this stage is less about adding tools and more about wiring what you have into a system that optimizes itself, with people moving from making routine decisions to supervising them. Verdantix recommends four shifts:
Continuous closed-loop workflows
Operating at Autonomous & Fully Agile
Level 5 isn't a finish line; the technologies that define it, particularly agentic AI, are still evolving, and so is what "fully agile" means. For organizations operating at this level, Verdantix recommends four priorities:
