Abstract :
This paper proposes a new model for Technology & Automation Evaluation of an industry. The method involves measuring the effect of different technology elements on various dimensions of an industry. As proof-of-concept, the Technology Ratio of a sample (Tesla Industries) has been calculated using this method. It has been found that this technique may be applied to analyze the Technology application of any industry, thus indicating the areas that may be automated to improve performance and efficiency.
