This research study was conducted to understand the adoption of the Internet of Things as a technology in the Australian manufacturing industries. As a part of the study, the adoption of the Internet of Things in the manufacturing domain was identified as a dependent variable through various online literature reviews. The following five independent variables were then identified as follows: competitiveness, regulatory support, cost savings, management support, and manufacturing growth. The objective of the research and the research questions were defined to assess the independent variables on the adoption of the technology Internet of Things. It was identified that all five independent variables positively impacted the adoption of the Internet of Things in the manufacturing industries in Australia. This will lead to unplanned downtime reduction and clearer data transparency to take the faster decision.
