The Role of Technology in Transforming Supply Chain Management

EasyChair Preprint no. 12381, version 2

Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the opportunities and challenges associated with supply chain integration and its role in achieving competitive advantage. Supply chain integration involves the seamless coordination and sharing of information, resources, and processes among supply chain partners, including suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, and customers. By breaking down silos and fostering collaboration, organizations can achieve greater visibility, agility, and responsiveness in meeting customer demands and market dynamics. One of the key opportunities presented by supply chain integration is the ability to synchronize activities across the entire supply chain, from demand planning and inventory management to production scheduling and logistics. Through real-time data sharing and communication, organizations can align their operations more closely with customer needs, reduce lead times, and minimize stockouts and overstocks.
