The increasing digitalization of business and society leads to drastic changes within companies. Nearly all enterprises have to face enormous challenges when dealing with topics such as Industry 4.0/Industrial Internet. One of these challenges represents the realistic classification of the company's own IT infrastructure. In this paper we present a maturity model (SIMMI 4.0 -System Integration Maturity Model Industry 4.0) that enables a company to classify its IT system landscape with focus on Industry 4.0 requirements. SIMMI 4.0 consists of 5 stages. Each describes several characteristics of digitization, which allows a company to assess itself. Additionally, recommended activities are presented for each stage of digitization, which can enable a company to reach the next stage of maturity. We also present several possible topics for future research to improve and refine the developed maturity model.
