AB - This study aimed to systematically identify success factors for smart factories in small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs) from an ESG(Environmental, Social, Governance) perspective. To achieve this, the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) methodology was employed to quantitatively analyze the relative importance and priority of factors that can enhance ESG performance. After conducting pairwise comparisons using AHP with 28 experts in the fields of ESG and smart factories, the results were as follows: Among the higher-level tasks, government support(31.86%) showed the highest weight, followed by human resources(30.73%), technical resources(23.19%), and environmental factors(14.22%).
In the overall weight analysis of sub-criteria tasks, management commitment(10.05%) ranked first, followed by dedicated personnel(9.47%), regulation and laws(9.23%), and smart technology operations(8.85%).
These results suggested that ESG smart factory implementation is not merely a matter of technology adoption, but rather a strategic initiative requiring organizational change management centered on management leadership and specialized personnel. Furthermore, it was confirmed that government financial support and institutional frameworks serve as key factors in facilitating SMEs' adoption of smart factories for ESG.
