Purpose – Developments in the industrial revolutions also
influence enterprises which are indispensable for commercial life, as well as
social and cultural life. These changes which occur in the enterprises about
production methods and technologies with the revolutions, naturally affect all
the processes of the enterprises, and the methods and tools used also change.
As structures of enterprises change the ways in which their performances are evaluated,
inevitably change. The methods of evaluating the performance of progressively growing
businesses also have to change inevitably and get more complicated. It is
obvious
that enterprises need to evaluate their performance in
order to survive and reach business excellence. Enterprise performance
management is an important tool which is driven by strategies of the
enterprises and pushes the enterprises to use their resources effectively at the
same time. Therefore in this study, interaction of enterprise performance
evaluation methods with the facts up to the Industry 4.0 is discussed in the
historical development process.
Method – Literatures on the enterprise performance evaluation
methods up to the 2010 and the industrial revolutions up to the Industry 4.0
were researched and the relations between the facts have been tried to be
established.
Findings – When the
results are evaluated, developments in the field of enterprise performance
management have taken place with the first, second and third industrial revolutions.
These developments have gained momentum especially in the Industry 3.0 and the
most known and the most used methods in the field of enterprise performance
evaluation have emerged in this period.
Limitations – In this
study, the effect of industrial revolutions on the field of enterprise performance
management is evaluated by examining the relationship between industrial revolutions
and enterprise performance evaluation methods. In future studies, this impact can
be evaluated by examining the relationship between the different facts in the
field of enterprise performance management and the industrial revolutions.
Implications – Industrial
revolutions have profoundly affected the field of enterprise performance
management as well as every area of life and will continue to affect. It is excepted
to be used the artificial intelligence techniques which form basis of the
fourth industrial revolution, in the future studies at the field of enterprise
performance management.
Originality – The
significance of this paper is examination of the impacts of industrial revolutions
up to the Industry 4.0 on development of the field of enterprise performance management.
This study will pave the way for better predictions about how the fourth industrial
revolution will create a trend in the field of enterprise performance
management.
