Abstract

The purpose of this research is to discuss the readiness level of Sarawak Disaster Management Agencies (SDMAs) during Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0) and to examine the challenges of the IR4.0 transition for the state of Sarawak in managing the disaster. IR4.0 readiness in disaster management is described as the degree to which organisations are able to take advantage of IR4.0 technologies in managing the disaster. Therefore, conceptualisation or development of the IR4.0 readiness model is needed. It is crucial for organisations to self-assess their readiness towards IR4.0 to survive and thrive in the advent of the IR4.0. Regarding Disaster Management, there are several readiness models for IR4.0 that researchers have identified to assess the readiness of SDMAs in dealing with IR4.0 technologies. This ongoing research aims to discuss the readiness level of SDMAs in managing disaster in the advent of the IR4.0. Also, to examine the challenges of IR4.0 transition for the state of Sarawak in managing the disaster. The method used for this research is a closed ended questionnaire survey. Thirty (30) SDMAs have been selected to provide the respondent. Since this research is still ongoing, there are still no results and significant findings obtained yet. The current readiness level and IR4.0 transition challenges of SDMAs will be addressed at the end of this study. Therefore, this paper will explain the methodology used to achieve both objectives of this ongoing research.
