Abstract The business world is becoming increasingly complex, disrupted, and uncertain. As Industry 4.0 (I4.0) takes shape, to endure this change focus on growth, industries must learn embrace move quickly; particularly so for the automotive industry, which a major sector of any economy. Agility needed promote sustainability across every industry. To face these contingencies, it essential identify understand strategies that can aid in sustaining real‐time scenarios. In paper, we aim assess agility indicators bring resilience inclusion I4.0 sector. unexpected changes environment related technological disruptions require identification sustainable agile mitigation manage such situations. fuzzy Delphi methodology assesses based questionnaire prioritization. Further, technique order performance by similarity ideal solution (TOPSIS) utilized prioritize with manufacturing deploy enhance their operations. extension methodologies helps incorporating vagueness ambiguity decision‐making process. A approach prioritizing as are changing helpful. decision makers have only few clear ideas about how best integrate them. Among strategies, “resilience,” “technological capabilities,” “customer‐centric innovation” top strategies. By executing suggested study understanding indicators, practitioners ensure work systems minimize impact caused industrial revolution. Thus, research has been underpinned organizational theory discusses all concerning rapid organizations facing fourth
