Competitive Advantage and Resources Barriers of Companies under the Fourth Industrial Revolution

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In an era of rapid change driven by the Fourth Industrial Revolution, achieving a competitive advantage is critical for a company&apos;s survival in the marketplace. However, enterprises currently face a multitude of barriers and constraints. This contribution aims to evaluate the competitive advantage and resources barriers of enterprises. The research is based on a questionnaire survey of 164 enterprises conducted in 2018. The methodology is concerning the statistical evaluation of hypotheses concerning the effects of size and industry of the enterprise. The results show that enterprises mainly consider product and process improvement as their competitive advantage, especially in the production of food and mechanical and electrical engineering. The most significant barrier for enterprises is human resources, particularly the lack of skilled workers. Large enterprises tend to focus on the introduction of new technologies and lean production methods. Small enterprises mainly implement tailor-made production, which is typical for the production of household products. Small enterprises perceive higher restrictions from the state.
