| Abstract |
In the rapidly evolving landscape, digitising the operations and facilities in a supply chain network is essential to make the system autonomous and develop strategies for enhancing resilience, transparency, and efficiency. The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the necessity of sustainable solutions for the hybrid mode of operations. To overcome several challenges, including price optimisation, demand forecasting under uncertainty, supply-demand gap reduction, take into account vulnerability, competitive business environment and risk, the supply chain needs to be streamlined with technology-driven infrastructures incorporating physical and information flow into overall supply chain processes. The digitisation aspect encompasses adopting cutting-edge technologies such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) for supply chain visibility, e-hailing platforms, real-time data analytics, the Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of Behaviour (IoB), blockchain-driven technology, as well as additive manufacturing, enabling seamless connectivity and communication among diverse stakeholders. This revolution enables strategic integration of various entities and state of the art data-driven decision-making, providing real-time insights into logistics movements, demand forecasting, production planning and inventory levels. Supply chain digitisation and management emphasises collaboration with supply chain partners to identify important factors, optimise costs and enhance overall supply chain resilience. Digitisation and management are technological evolutions and strategic shifts integrating analytical tools, allowing businesses to formulate models to improve performance. The implementation of blockchain-driven technology solidifies trust and safety transactions by creating an immutable and transparent log, mitigating threats and enhancing traceability. Digitisation and management exemplify a transformative journey towards a more connected, data-driven, and agile global supply chain ecosystem. |
