One of the important steps for implementing advanced manufacturing in industry is assessing the maturity level of the industry plants in the different areas of advanced manufacturing. In this work we propose model with fourteen areas of advanced manufacturing, which assess the maturity of the plants for advanced manufacturing. In order to validate the model and the assessment questionnaire, we aske fifteen industrial companies to assess their status by using our questionnaire. Based on the findings of this research review we conclude that our proposed model/ questionnaire is valid for this purpose.

Also, based on the findings of this review we can indicate the strengths and weaknesses of the companies which have participated in this review.
