This study was conducted in response to the call made by the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) in South Africa to strengthen the awareness levels of TVET colleges' readiness to embrace the 4IR era. The purpose of this study was to focus on equipment alignment between TVET colleges and industries. This study used Eulau and Karps' theory of responsiveness as a guide to explore the purpose. Also, this study purposefully sampled five TVET colleges in Limpopo province and two civil engineering industries linked to these institutions. This study used a descriptive qualitative research design. Document analysis and non-participant observations were used as data collection instruments. The study found that the working tools and equipment used by these TVET colleges were not fancy or showing prospects of Fourth Industrial Revolution. This was the same thing with the linked industries. Hence, all tools used were simply outdated when it comes to 4IR integration. And so, the study recommends that TVET colleges should institute new partnerships with 4IR responsive industries than being linked to industries that are using conventional tools and equipment.

Key Driver

As the Fourth Industrial Revolution (I4.0) technologies continue to evolve and converge, the role of the managers needs to urgently adjust and change accordingly. While some are delighted with the promises of increased flexibility in industries in tandem with productivity and better quality, others are concerned with mass unemployment. This is a chilling vision of how robots will completely reshape industries and disrupt jobs, thus creating societal change of an unforeseen magnitude and speed. But one thing remains the same: management is the hinge on which the fate of every organization swings. Managers remain the key driver to build long-term success in organizations. In this context, managers need to deal with emerging challenges, opportunities, management practices brought about by the 4IR technologies. In this context, they have to address the six crucial transformations namely in technology, the pattern of work, business, society, lifelong learning, and leadership, and provide countermeasures to thrive within this brave new tech-driven and globalized business world.
