| Sumario: | [EN] Industry 5.0 advances manufacturing beyond automation and connectivity by centering people, sustainability, and resilience alongside advanced technologies. Yet organizations still lack standardized metrics to gauge progress. This paper proposes a multi-criteria evaluation framework that assesses a company’s alignment with Industry 5.0 across ten criteria spanning the pillars of human centricity, environmental sustainability, and resilience. A structured letter-grade scale (A = full alignment to E = no alignment) summarizes maturity at both criterion and aggregate levels. We apply the framework to a medium-sized Lithuanian manufacturer of furniture components to demonstrate its use. The baseline assessment yields a low overall grade, revealing gaps across all three pillars. Targeted recommendations—covering workforce participation and training, circularity metrics, energy efficiency, supply-chain robustness, and cyber-physical safety—would increase the composite score by roughly 70%, moving the firm toward a well-aligned status. The framework offers a practical tool for diagnosing readiness, prioritizing investments, and guiding Industry 5.0 transitions in manufacturing contexts. |
