This challenge, however, provides the OEMs with an opportunity to create and capture unique value by upgrading and retrofitting the legacy equipment and then provisioning data-driven value-added services for the manufacturers (equipment users) [5] . In section four we put a special focus on the servitization potential and challenges of the OEMs in supporting the Industry 4.0 transition by means of retrofitting legacy equipment and provisioning data-driven services. Given the fact that the existing literature on the upgradability and retrofitting solution towards Industry 4.0 do not include the OEM and the service perspectives at this point, this research investigated OEM's potential in providing connectivity and data analytics services to the manufacturers of end products.	./cache/cord-102760-5tkdwtc0.txt	./txt/cord-102760-5tkdwtc0.txt
