Abstract

The supply chain has undergone a significant and innovative transformation in recent years with the introduction of new intelligent and digital technologies aimed at streamlining various supply chain activities from demand forecasting, manufacturing of goods, inventory management, and transport planning to delivery to customers. The digitisation of the transport and shipping industry incorporates advanced technologies such as cloud computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and big data. These digital innovations are streamlining routes, forecasting demand, tracking shipments, and above all reacting quickly to changes, resulting in overall supply chain efficiency. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the issues that highlight the birth and construction of this transformation, as well as identifying the technological tools impacting the supply chain, in order to analyse the real impact of digitalisation on the development of relative supply chain strategies
