Track: Industry 4.0
Abstract
This paper focuses on understanding the importance of implementing Industry 4.0 technology in the supply chain as many companies are still using traditional supply chains and are suffering from high costs, whereas there are companies that are either afraid to move towards Industry 4.0 or have no idea of how to proceed. The framework of this paper was created by reviewing the latest published articles. Furthermore, the paper explores the capability of industry 4.0 in attaining sustainability and highlights the need to have more research on the practical implementation of industry 4.0 in the supply chain for empirical understanding.
