How the digital supply chains evolved in the past decade is shaping the future of business. Evolving that started in the 80s with simple ERP systems and evolved is the last 5 years into cloud-based technologies and IIOT where terminologies like Uberization and Digitization are invading the logistics world. The exponential growth of e-commerce and the need for technological backbone in the companies that want to grow in such sector to support such changes in consumer behavior is translated into the digital supply chain where it touches end to end processes from supplier to customer and how the technology-enabled solution can change the way business operates and cut losses and endure high service.
According to MHI’s 2017 annual survey on next-generation supply chains, 80% of respondents believe that the digital supply chain will be the predominant model within the next five years—with just 16% saying it’s happening today.

A digital supply chain steeply leverages intelligence embedded in devices, analytics, external big data sources, and intelligent supply chain software to realize improved customer experience, the increased value of products in the markets, generate new revenue streams and new markets and increase high profits.

Digitization forges deeper relationships between industry partners and their customers in many ways and offers huge opportunities for higher customer value and higher reliability towards ever-changing customer needs. Digitization has already transformed many areas, and this is only the beginning.
The entire marketplace stands to benefit from perhaps the most important of all perspectives: digitalization will allow all to benefit from more effective and sustainable approaches to consuming planet earth’s precious resources! A world that is nearer than what anyone thinks, digitized and customer-centric.
