To stay competitive, suppliers are facing high pressures todigitalize their business but have limited resources available. Furthermore, aerospacesuppliers lack a framework to measure their current state of digitalization.Therefore, this paper provides a holistic digitalization KPI framework for manufacturingaerospace companies. Methodology: The framework is based on a top-down and bottom-up developmentapproach. Within the top-down approach, 42 digitalization maturity models are beinganalyzed to identify relevant dimensions. To reveal digitalization indicators, acomprehensive literature review is being used as a bottom-up approach. Indicatorsare then assigned to the sub-dimension. Finally, indicators are grouped to similar indicatorsand merged to digitalization KPI. Findings: The developed KPI framework encompasses 89 digitalization KPI amongnine dimensions: Strategy and Organizational Leadership, Governance and TransformationManagement, Digital Skills/Human Capital, Smart Product, Customer Focus,Smart Process/Operations, Digital Technology, Financial Focus, and Network and Security. Originality: The presented digitalization KPI framework provides a scientific foundationfor measuring the digitalization maturity level of aerospace companies.Therefore, maturity models and benchmarking tools can incorporate the developed(sub-) dimensions and KPI to measure and compare the digital readiness of aerospacecompanies as well as to derive guidance for areas of improvement.enhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/LogisticsIndustry 4.0DigitalizationInnovationSupply Chain ManagementArtificial IntelligenceData ScienceWirtschaftConference Paper10.15480/882.3109https://www.epubli.de/shop/buch/Data-Science-and-Innovation-in-Supply-Chain-Management-Wolfgang-Kersten-9783753123462/10604710.15480/882.3109Kersten, WolfgangWolfgangKerstenBlecker, ThorstenThorstenBleckerRingle, Christian M.Christian M.RingleOther
